Don't wait for new construction when you can have a pristine, better than new, custom home with mile long water views that is available NOW! This stunning; lakeside home built in 2024 has been meticulously upgraded post-construction with a multitude of high-end upgrades. Lush landscaping lines the paver driveway, equipped with an oversized parking pad for guests and leads you to the front entry with modern impact full-glass front door. Inside the foyer you’re immediately greeted with the large lake views that are truly the star of this residence. Enjoy contemporary design within the open floor plan including both study and bonus room, engineered hardwood flooring, designer light fixtures, volume ceilings with crown molding, plantation shutters, professional custom closets, and a bright light-filled space. The central great room has a triple tray ceiling, feature wall with built-in cabinetry, and impact sliding glass doors to the lanai with the lake beyond. The open flow continues into the upgraded kitchen that is expertly outfitted with a central island of waterfall quartz counters, abundant crisp white cabinetry with matte black hardware, glass display cabinets, full-height quartz backsplash, farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry with custom shelving, and top-of-the-line Jenn-Air appliance suite with 6-burner gas cooktop. Perhaps the most desirable feature of this floor plan is the convenient butler’s wet bar connecting the kitchen to the formal dining room with quartz counters and backsplash, glass display cabinets, and wine refrigerator. Enjoy elegant occasions in the formal dining room adorned with custom moldings, or casual weeknights in the dinette surrounded by lake views. But the best place to entertain is on the paver lanai where the lake views take center stage from the covered living area with cozy fireplace, modern ceiling fan, and remote-controlled hurricane screens. The dining space is highlighted by the custom outdoor kitchen with granite counters, full-height backsplash, stainless steel grill, pizza oven and side burner and beverage refrigerator.
