Experience the perfect fusion of luxury, elegance, and craftsmanship in this custom-designed Arthur Rutenberg home, ideally situated in the coveted GATED waterfront enclave of Pasco Sunset Lakes. Tucked away on a tranquil 0.38-acre private conservation homesite, this residence offers a lush backyard oasis and serene marsh views beyond. Outdoor living shines with a sparkling pool, dedicated pool bath, screened lanai, outdoor shower, and a stunning multi-level paver patio with a built-in stone firepit—an idyllic setting for entertaining or unwinding beneath the stars. Impeccable curb appeal is delivered by manicured landscaping, a stately portico entrance, architectural columns, and elegant bay windows. Step through 8-foot double glass doors crowned by an arched transom window into a grand tiled foyer, where a decorative floor medallion and double tray ceiling set the tone for the home’s refined interiors. A pony wall stylishly separates the formal dining room, appointed with its own tray ceiling, crown molding, custom built-in display unit, and custom arched window with Plantation shutters. The living room echoes this elegance with a stacked stone accent wall featuring an electric fireplace, double tray ceiling, crown molding, and triple windows framing views of the lanai and conservation beyond. The gourmet kitchen caters to culinary enthusiasts with a full suite of stainless appliances —including a gas range with double oven—granite countertops, tile backsplash, a center island hi-breakfast counter with pendant lighting, and tall raised panel wood cabinets with crown molding. A walk-in pantry, built-in desk space, and a café-style dining area with bay windows overlooking the lanai and pool complete this space. Designed for gatherings, the family room with a built-in entertainment center, paddle fan, and sliding glass doors seamlessly extend living space outdoors. A versatile bonus room features a tray ceiling, abundant natural light, sliding glass doors to the pool area, and comes complete with a pool table and window coverings. Retreat to the luxurious primary suite, where a double tray ceiling with crown molding, bay windows, lanai access, and two large custom walk-in closets create a private haven. The spa-like ensuite bath offers a garden tub, walk-in shower, private water closet, and dual vanities—one with a make-up area. Step outside to your private oasis, where the screened lanai (re-screened 2024) and beautifully designed paver pool deck set the stage for resort-style living. Enjoy a refreshing pool (pump replaced 2017) and an impressive outdoor kitchen set against a striking stone wall, complete with a built-in gas grill, vent hood, sink, refrigerator, ample counter space, and a generous dining area—perfect for alfresco entertaining.
