Property Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Explore the expansive living areas in this home, situated on a generously sized lot! This move-in-ready property has nearly 2,000 square feet of well-designed space, perfectly setting the stage for unforgettable gatherings and cherished moments. Picture yourself basking in the sun by the sparkling swimming pool or hosting lively get-togethers in the inviting living, dining, and family areas, blending comfort and style effortlessly. A wall of sliding glass doors in the great room neatly stacks away, combining the interior with the outdoor living space and creating a perfect flow. It has durable wood laminate and tiled flooring, providing a convenient and easy-to-maintain home. The family room features a wood-burning fireplace and is open to the upgraded kitchen. Corian countertops and a breakfast bar complement the wood cabinets with glass display shelving. An abundance of natural light showcases the stone-tiled backsplash. The customary appliances remain, including the Bosch built-in microwave. Nearby is a built-in pantry in the laundry room, which has a laundry sink and garage access. The primary suite boasts its own courtyard, making it a delightful retreat. The private bath has been updated with a walk-in closet, granite and wood cabinetry, independently hung mirrors, dual sinks, and a tiled shower with glass doors. The split plan layout separates the guest wing from this area. You'll find a bonus cedar-lined walk-in closet, an updated bathroom that provides access to the outdoor pool, and two additional bedrooms, one of which even has its own walk-in closet. The screened lanai is fantastic, boasting a covered area perfect for relaxing, a pool for those sunny days, and convenient pass-through access to the kitchen. It’s an ideal space for entertaining or enjoying a peaceful evening outdoors, a highlight of the home! The backyard is enclosed with a fence and features a lush green lawn, landscaping, and trees that provide shade. Curb appeal is enhanced by a meticulously maintained lot featuring a well for irrigation, a brick-paved walkway, and a covered entry with double doors. Southpointe Shores is a place where luxurious waterfront estates harmoniously coexist with classic Florida homes. This sought-after neighborhood features picturesque sailboat canals and direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway. You'll also be just a short distance from beautiful beaches, premier golf courses, and various attractions, including shopping and dining, fitness and aquatic centers, neighborhood parks, Legacy Trail, and media destinations. Residents can take advantage of a voluntary association that provides use of a gated community boat ramp and dock, that is just a few feet away from this home.
