BEAUTIFUL INSIDE and exceptionally well maintained, this Rivendell home offers the kind of upgrades, efficiency, and outdoor living that are becoming increasingly hard to find. This Luxurious home is situated on a large beautifully landscaped, lake front lot with a Southeast Exposure overlooking Oscar Scherer State park!
The interior layout is spacious and functional, featuring tile flooring throughout the main living areas and carpet in the bedrooms for comfort. A dedicated front office connects directly to the primary suite, creating a flexible space ideal for working from home, a sitting room, or even a private retreat. High ceilings and an open flow between the living spaces enhance the overall feel, while the home’s condition reflects true pride of ownership.
Step outside and the property truly separates itself. The heated pool has been resurfaced with Pebble Tec and features a solar heating system that was just replaced in 2024, providing year-round enjoyment with energy efficiency. The outdoor space is further enhanced with hurricane roll-down protection, an outdoor stereo system, and a removable baby safety fence—offering both entertainment and peace of mind.
Major updates have already been handled, including a BRAND NEW ROOF in 2025 with a transferable 20-year warranty and TWO NEW A/C systems installed in 2025. The home also benefits from an irrigation well, helping maintain the lush landscaping while keeping water costs zero. Total electric costs have remained under $2,400 annually for the entire property, showcasing impressive efficiency for a home of this size.
Additional features include a mini-split A/C system in the garage paired with an insulated garage door—perfect for a workshop, gym, or climate-controlled space—as well as a large safe that conveys with the sale.

The community offers a rare private path directly to Pine View School and borders Oscar Scherer State Park along with over 200 acres of preserved land, creating a unique blend of convenience and natural surroundings. The home is near both Siesta and Nokomis Beaches, Costco, and loads of shopping and restaurants. Home is situated less than a mile from the Legacy Bike Trail. Minutes to the distinguished Pine View School, the #1 rated public gifted college-prep school in Florida.
