Nestled within the exclusive, gated golf community of University Park Country Club, this stunning executive-style home exudes elegance and sophistication at every turn. As you approach via the expansive circular driveway, it’s clear that this residence is something extraordinary. Stepping through the double etched-glass front doors, you’re greeted by a grand foyer and a formal living room that offers a seamless flow to the oversized paver lanai. Here, the tranquil pool and water feature create a serene oasis, complemented by sweeping views of the preserve and lake. For those who enjoy outdoor living, the lanai features an additional covered seating area perfect for waterfront dining or lounging under the stars. Designed for privacy and comfort, the split floorplan places the owners’ retreat on the west wing, complete with a cozy seating area and dual walk-in closets. For added versatility, a spacious home office with double French doors could easily serve as a guest room. The heart of the home lies in the renovated kitchen, showcasing new cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, and a generous center island. The expansive pantry and charming breakfast nook, framed by an aquarium glass window, offer uninterrupted views of the private pool. On the opposite side of the home, two additional guest suites and a pool bath provide ample space for family and friends. The recent upgrades are impressive, with a new tile roof, HVAC system, luxurious LVP flooring throughout the main living areas and primary bedroom, and custom plantation shutters adorning every window. Architectural details such as crown molding and niches add sophistication and style throughout. Notably, the owner upgraded the home with a panoramic screen enclosure, creating an unobstructed view of the serene lake and preserve beyond. University Park is renowned for its natural beauty and is considered one of the premier master-planned communities in Sarasota.
