This meticulously maintained lakefront home delivers the kind of "wow" factor you expect from a model, but it's real, it's move-in ready, and it could be yours. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal sets the tone: professionally upgraded landscaping, subtle outdoor lighting that highlights the home at dusk, and a serene lake backdrop that turns every evening into golden hour. The Lanai That Changes Everything Step through the front door and you'll immediately understand why this home stands apart. The extended lanai is the true heart of the home, finished with custom flooring that feels more like a resort than a back porch. Floor-to-ceiling screens frame a panoramic lake view, while the owner's upgraded landscaping creates layers of color and texture year-round. Custom outdoor lighting lets you enjoy the space well into the evening, whether you're hosting friends for cocktails, grilling on weekends, or unwinding with coffee at sunrise. This isn't just a patio — it's a second living room with nature as your feature wall. A Chef's Kitchen Designed to Impress Entertainers and home chefs will feel right at home in this thoughtfully designed kitchen. The space is anchored by an expanded quartz-top island with room for seating, prep, and casual dining. Custom pendant lights hang above, accented by detailed molding work that adds a high-end, finished look. Cabinetry rises to 42 inches, maximizing storage while creating a clean, elevated sightline. Under-cabinet lighting casts a warm glow across the quartz counters, making evening meal prep feel effortless. You'll also find a fully finished pantry — organized, built-out, and ready for everything from bulk storage to small appliances. Cooking is a pleasure with the sleek electric cooktop paired with a stainless-steel hood for ventilation and style. The combo wall oven/microwave streamlines your kitchen workflow and keeps counters uncluttered. Every detail here was chosen for both beauty and function. Living Spaces That Flow The open floor plan connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, so conversations flow as easily as the lake breeze. In the dining room, custom mirrors expand the space and bounce natural light, creating an airy, upscale ambiance perfect for holidays or weeknight dinners. Throughout the main living areas, the layout takes full advantage of the lake views — you're never far from a window or a glimpse of water. Comfort & Quality in Every Detail This home goes beyond surface-level updates. Comfort-height toilets in the bathrooms offer everyday ease and a subtle luxury you'll appreciate daily. The garage is finished with a professional epoxy floor coating — durable, easy to clean, and a clear sign of an owner who cares about every square foot. Storage has been carefully considered, from the finished pantry to the tall kitchen cabinets to smart closet systems. Lighting was upgraded intentionally: under-cabinet, pendant, and outdoor fixtures all work together to create mood and functionality from morning to night. Outdoor Living & Lakefront Lifestyle The real star is what's beyond the lanai. The lakefront setting offers privacy, tranquility, and a changing view with every season. Upgraded landscaping frames the water with low-maintenance plantings, palms, and lighting that makes the yard glow after dark. Imagine coffee in the morning, watching herons at lunch, and enjoying sunset dinners without ever leaving home. If you've been dreaming of Florida outdoor living, this is it.
