Welcome to this charming custom home located at the end of a cul-de-sac in one of Sarasota’s most desirable (and very friendly) neighborhoods with enchanted Spanish moss covered oak tree canopies. Gorgeous gardens with flowers surround the house. Enjoy stunning lake views and partial ownership of a private island of palms—your slice of paradise! Inside, the home has custom textured and raised ceilings with lovely cut outs, slopes and curves instead of squared rooms. This home offers a flexible layout with separate living, dining, and family rooms. The kitchen features granite countertops, wood cabinetry, a large pantry, a separate beverage/desk area, and a sunny breakfast room all with views of the pool and lake. A spacious master suite has a walk-in closet with shelving and a luxurious bath, complete with a large soaking tub, walk-in shower with double showerheads and sliding door leading out to a private deck and hot tub/pool area. The second and third bedrooms each have cozy lofts with ladders, while the fourth bedroom has a walk in closet and is ideal for guests or a home office, with a bathroom access door. An oversized utility room provides storage and additional space for work or hobbies. Step outside to a true retreat with a resurfaced pool and travertine deck and outdoor kitchen all with views of the lake and island. Lots of wildlife to observe with birds, ducks, turtles and more. A screened in lanai has both shaded and open areas, perfect for entertaining or relaxing in the pool with a brand new heat pump, pool cover, pool pump and solar ionizer to keep pool clear. This lovely home checks all the boxes and is a must see to appreciate the beauty!
