A pavered driveway leads to the side-entry, two-car garage, thoughtfully designed with ample built-in storage. From there, lush landscaping guides you to the stately double-door entrance, accented by elegant leaded glass details. Step inside to discover 18” diagonally set tiles, soaring ceilings, a mantled fireplace with a hearth, and rich crown moldings throughout. The formal dining room is a showpiece, adorned with a striking chandelier, honeycomb shades, and sliding doors that open to an expansive lanai, where an inviting pool overlooks a serene waterway.
The heart of this home is its gourmet kitchen, a chef’s paradise outfitted with generous granite countertops, multiple prep areas, an inviting center island, and classic ivory cabinetry. The kitchen includes premium appliances, including a new Thermador refrigerator and dishwasher, a gas cooktop, built-in oven, and microwave, complemented by a walk-in pantry. The kitchen seamlessly flows into the light-filled family room, where sliding doors lead out to the pool area, creating an ideal space for gatherings or quiet relaxation.

The expansive pool invites endless relaxation, and with a convenient gas hookup, a summer kitchen can be designed and built to your specifications—perfect for creating an ideal space for outdoor culinary adventures. All this, paired with an idyllic lake view, makes outdoor living unforgettable.
