Gracefully updated and surrounded by lush preserve views, this Legend’s Walk home in Lakewood Ranch Country Club could be yours! Including a NEW 2024 ROOF being installed this May and 2023 IMPACT windows, this Arthur Rutenberg residence features robust 2023-2024 upgrades on an oversized lot set amidst the conservation, with peekaboo lake views and near a quiet cul-de-sac for the ideal country club and Lakewood Ranch lifestyle. From the mature oak trees down the long, extended driveway you are welcomed home to this spacious true 3 bedroom and 3 bathroom home with a functional floor plan featuring a den in the rear of the home to enjoy the serene preserve and water views. Plus an additional bonus room, "She Shed" or flex room for your enjoyment. Luxurious upgrades inside include 2023 freshly painted interior in a modern bright palette, crown molding and tray ceilings, 2022 ceiling fans, plantation shutters, arched entryways and columns, and plentiful sliders and transom windows for natural light through the eastern rear exposure. The formal living room and formal dining room offer spaces for upscale entertaining or holiday gatherings, while the casual family room and dinette are perfect for weeknights at home. The gourmet kitchen has been updated in 2023 with new quartzite counters, coastal backsplash, refinished cabinetry in crisp white with undercabinet lighting, and newer stainless steel appliances. In addition to the central island with counter-height seating and storage, this functional kitchen also showcases a wet bar with glass display cabinetry, wine bottle storage, and bar refrigerator; and a built-in desk and home management station down the hall with a walk-in pantry. The cozy family room is highlighted by disappearing corner sliders with transom windows, and a 2023 feature wall with electric fireplace. Enjoy picture perfect Florida days on the travertine lanai with two covered entertaining areas, sparkling saltwater pool and spa with 2023 gas heater, and 2023 clear view screen enclosure. The rear study is a serene place to work from home with conservation views and custom built-in library shelving and desk. In the primary suite you’ll find equally calming views over the pool and preserve, plus dual walk-in closets with custom shelving. The spa-like primary bath is spacious with split vanities, a soaking tub, and separate walk-in shower. Guests will find comfort in two guest bedrooms and two full bathrooms with 2023 quartzite counters, one of which is a full pool bath as well. The bonus room is a functional flex space and is currently used as a storage and mudroom room but would also be perfect as a fitness room, additional office, laundry overflow, or hobby room. Rounding out this lovely home is a laundry with 2023 Electrolux washer & dryer and 2023 ironing center, 3-car sideloading garage, and recirculating hot water heater. Appreciate a state-of-the-art fitness center, clubhouse, junior Olympic-sized pool, three 18-hole championship golf courses, and more by becoming a member of the Lakewood Ranch Country Club. Lakewood Ranch is the top multi-generational community in the country for six years in a row with award-winning shopping, dining, A-rated schools, parks, and nearby beaches.
