Experience waterfront luxury at its finest in Shellstone at Waterside. Brand new, never lived in, and positioned along one of the community’s most coveted big-water views, this exceptional Portside Model by Homes by Towne offers the rare opportunity to enjoy a finished, fully upgraded residence without the wait of a new construction build. Best of all, there are no remaining homesites available on this section of the big lake, making this a truly limited opportunity to own a brand-new home with a view that simply cannot be replicated today. From the moment you enter, refined finishes and thoughtful upgrades are evident throughout. The residence features zero carpet, wood-look plank tile flooring, upgraded insulation, elegant step-tray ceilings, and an impressive great room anchored by a custom fireplace with a dramatic floor-to-ceiling tiled feature wall and integrated LED accent lighting. The gourmet kitchen is designed to impress, showcasing premium Monogram appliances, Level 6 solid-wood cabinetry, a 36-inch gas cooktop, luxurious Calacatta Elysio quartz countertops, upgraded designer lighting, and a beautifully appointed butler’s pantry complete with wine cooler. A washer and dryer are also included, adding everyday convenience to this thoughtfully designed home. Every detail was selected to create a sophisticated yet inviting space for both everyday living and entertaining. Step outside and the true showpiece of the property comes into full view. The custom Pebble Tec saltwater pool features dual waterfalls, a sun shelf with bubblers, and an upgraded paver lanai, all framed by an Open View screen enclosure designed to preserve the spectacular, uninterrupted lake vistas. This is outdoor living elevated to another level. The home is equally impressive behind the scenes, with full hurricane-impact glass, high-efficiency Trane HVAC, a tankless gas water heater, smart-home prewiring, a four-camera CCTV system, polyaspartic garage flooring, and an EV charging circuit. Additional rough-ins are already in place for an outdoor kitchen and whole-home generator, providing both convenience and peace of mind for years to come. Shellstone at Waterside delivers a maintenance-included lifestyle complemented by exceptional resort-style amenities. Residents enjoy The Summit’s resort pool and fitness center, along with pickleball and tennis at Midway Park. This is more than a brand-new home—it is a rare chance to own a never-lived-in residence with an exceptional floor plan, extraordinary upgrades, resort-style outdoor living, and a big-water view that you simply cannot build today. Be sure to click the virtual tour and experience the 3D walkthrough, allowing you to explore this exceptional home from anywhere.
Lakewood Ranch, located between Sarasota and Bradenton, is a master-planned and golf-oriented Lakewood Ranch neighborhood with a network of lakes and a village-style town center. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street at Lakewood Ranch Boulevard, where sidewalk patios, boutiques, and studio-style fitness spaces line the blocks. Waterside Place and Lakewood Ranch Main Street serve as social anchors for dining, events, and waterfront strolling. Architecture leans Mediterranean-inspired with newer coastal-contemporary builds, framed by palms, trails, and manicured greens. Parks and multi-use paths stitch together pocket neighborhoods, dog parks, and playgrounds. The Premier Sports Campus adds tournament energy and wide-open fields to the landscape.
