Why wait to build when you can move right into a nearly new designer-appointed residence offering just under 4,000 square feet of refined elegance and comfort? This thoughtfully designed home boasts 5 spacious bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a private home office, a grand bonus/game room, and a 3-car side-entry garage all perfectly tailored to elevate your lifestyle. From the moment you step inside, the soaring two-story foyer and sweeping staircase make a dramatic first impression, setting the stage for the elevated finishes and attention to detail found throughout the home. Beyond the entry, French doors lead to a spacious office, ideal for those who value a stylish and private space to work or study. Formal dining and living areas and expansive open-concept family room seamlessly blend sophistication and functionality, all while offering unobstructed views of the tranquil lake. At the heart of the home, the gourmet chef’s kitchen delivers both beauty and performance. Appointed with stainless steel appliances, a statement range hood, apron-front sink, walk-in pantry off the butler's pantry, quartz countertops, and an oversized center island, it was made for both entertaining and everyday luxury. The open layout flows naturally onto the covered lanai through sliding glass doors perfect for alfresco dining, sunset cocktails, or simply unwinding to the sounds of nature. The main-floor primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a wall of windows overlooking the water, private lanai access, custom-designed closets, and a spa-inspired ensuite. With a frameless glass shower, dual vanities, and designer tilework, every element was crafted for relaxation and indulgence. Upstairs, nearly 1,600 additional square feet offer a flexible second living space. Four generously sized bedrooms, two with ensuite bathrooms and one shared bath, each include walk-in closets, providing plenty of space for family and guests.
