Discover the perfect blend of luxury and leisure with this exceptional Pallazio model home, ideally situated on a coveted-deeded golf lot. Imagine waking up to south-facing views of serene waters and the Championship golf course right from your lanai. This is more than just a home - it's a lifestyle opportunity in a gated and very active community that offers an array of amenities such as golf, fitness, culinary delights, al fresco dining at the tiki bar, pickleball, swimming, tennis, an active social schedule, and miles of walking trails. This model-like home has been lightly lived in and offers an inviting foyer entry with glass-paneled front doors, high ceilings, designer lighting, and a soft color palette. It features 3 bedrooms plus an office/den, 3 baths, and a tandem garage for 3 cars. The outdoor living space spared no expense with the aftermarket addition of a heated saltwater pool with waterfalls and spa. The outdoor gas fireplace provides warmth and ambiance on cool evenings, complemented by a wall-mounted television, a complete summer kitchen with a hood, an island with seating, and beverage and wine refrigerators. Beautiful plank tile adorns the main living areas, and all windows are fitted with custom window treatments. The cook of the family will appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, which is light and bright, featuring tall cabinets with crown molding, under-cabinet lighting, a new farmhouse-style sink, a closet pantry, a prep sink, and a center island that seats four. The luxurious master retreat includes a private en-suite bath with a walk-in shower, dual sinks, quartz countertops, and a spacious, fully fitted closet. The open floor plan makes entertaining or enjoying family time a breeze. For added peace of mind, this home is in an X flood zone and includes hurricane protection, featuring a motorized hurricane-rated screen on the lanai to protect furniture and eliminate the need for shutters during a major storm. Lawn maintenance is included so you’ll have more time to spend enjoying this highly sought-after community with unrivaled resort-style amenities, wellness programs, and concierge services. The newly opened culinary center is a winner, and the on-site spa is perfect for pampering. A full-time activities director maintains an expansive social calendar for all to enjoy.
