One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Rare opportunity to own a beautiful Oakleaf home, ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, directly across from the neighborhood park. Step onto the charming front porch and enter this spacious open-concept home with soaring ceilings and upgraded trim throughout. The formal dining room is highlighted by a stunning stone accent wall and plantation shutters. The living room boasts a wall of sliding glass doors and a skylight, offering abundant natural light. The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, custom cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, a large pantry, and upgraded stainless steel appliances (cooktop and dishwasher new in 2024). The kitchen also includes a convenient breakfast bar, pantry closet, and seamlessly opens to the inviting family room. Designed with a split floor plan, the primary suite is tucked away from the other bedrooms for maximum privacy. The spacious bedroom is adorned with cherry wood flooring, a tray ceiling, and a sliding door that leads to the lanai. Dual closets provide ample storage, while the luxurious ensuite bath offers dual vanities with granite countertops, a jetted tub, a separate shower, and a water closet. The versatile second bedroom is perfect as an office or guest suite, featuring an ensuite bath and direct access to the lanai. Bedrooms three and four are located with a full bathroom conveniently positioned between them. The laundry room features top-of-the-line washer and dryer, along with cabinetry, a closet for extra storage, and a utility tub for added convenience. Step outside to the pavered lanai, where a covered sitting area with a wood plank ceiling and ceiling fan offers a perfect spot for relaxation. Enjoy year-round outdoor living with a solar-heated pool, and take advantage of the fenced backyard with assorted fruit trees (navel orange, Persian lime, Meyer lemon, and dwarf varietal mango), providing both privacy and a dedicated dog run, as well as a Florida native plant backyard. For added efficiency, this home is also equipped with a solar water heater, ensuring energy savings year-round, as well as a new HVAC system in 2023. The oversized three-car garage offers ample storage space and an additional refrigerator. Centrally located, Oakleaf is close to top-rated schools, shopping, the highway, and minutes to world-famous Siesta Key Beach. The neighborhood park across the street offers a playground, a basketball/pickleball court, and picnic tables.
