Remarks

Perfectly positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this beautifully updated pool and spa home sits on one of the most coveted lots in Lakewood Ranch Country Club, offering preserve, water, and Kings Dune golf course views. Located in Stone Ridge, one of the closest neighborhoods to the Country Club and golfing amenities, is sought-after due to the proximity. Designed by Neal Communities, the popular Burgundy floor plan showcases a rare, expansive open-air courtyard with a surrounding wall, leading to a beautiful French glass entry door. Inside, a gracious foyer opens to a light-filled Great Room features architectural detailing, soaring 12-foot ceilings, diagonal tile flooring, and transom window above the double glass lanai doors, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. Formal and casual dining spaces off the kitchen are enhanced by plantation shutters and Lutron lighting, creating an elegant ambiance. The chef's kitchen, beautifully updated in 2022, is a standout feature showcasing Calcutta Tuscany quartz countertops, custom-painted cabinetry topped with crown molding, and an illuminated glass-front upper cabinet that adds both sophistication and warmth. This refined space features a granite composite sink, glass tile backsplash, gas cooking stove, and stainless steel appliances, including several newer additions. A central vacuum system with an automatic toe-kick dustpan offers effortless convenience. The primary suite is a serene retreat featuring lanai access, a generous sitting area, custom built-in closets with no carpeting, and a lovely en-suite bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a zero-entry walk-in shower. The two guest bedrooms are thoughtfully tucked behind a pocket door, creating a private wing with a shared bath, ideal for guests or family. Outdoor living truly shines with saltwater, gas-heated pool and spa with water feature, outdoor shower, and a rescreened lanai. The lanai is thoughtfully designed with two separate areas, an open space for enjoying the views and a covered entertaining area featuring ceiling speakers and a pre-wired gas line. The well-appointed laundry room offers upper cabinetry, a built-in sink, hanging rack and a top loading washer and dryer. Additional highlights include a whole-house surge protector, retractable screen doors at the front entry and lanai, a sealed roof with transferable warranty (2023), Rinnai recirculating tankless water heater (2023), Kinetico water softener and filtration system (2022), and Trane HVAC with warranty (2019). The extended garage provides space for a golf cart or additional storage and includes attic access with a pull-down ladder and shelving.
