The exclusive Canterbury subdivision of Lakewood Ranch Country Club is characterized by its larger lots and exquisite homes, and this 3,877 square foot custom residence is no exception. Mature foliage on the nearly half-acre lot, a freshly painted exterior, and a circular drive give the home impeccable curb appeal only enhanced when greeted by large French doors with transom windows. Inside soaring tray and coffered ceilings, keystone columns, and tile flooring with marble inlays accentuate a thoughtful floorplan that effortlessly transitions from indoors to out. The living room with beautiful stone fireplace, custom built-ins and floor-to-ceiling glass sliders to the lanai is the perfect introduction to the evident quality of the home. A spacious kitchen with stone counters, rich wood cabinetry, breakfast nook with aquarium glass, expansive breakfast bar and walk-in pantry is a central hub, connecting beautifully to a family room and formal dining room via a Butler’s pantry with wet bar and wine cooler for effortless entertaining. Beyond the family room, a bonus room (currently outfitted as a fourth bedroom) is prewired for a media room and is a versatile space. Meanwhile a second oversized bonus room, ideal as game room is connected to the pool area. Retreat into the owner’s suite with expansive bay windows, walk-in closets, and divine spa bath with Roman shower and glorious soaking tub. Guest bedrooms are generous in size and an office toward the front of the home is perfect for remote work. One of the show stopping elements of the home is the serene playscape of the fully enclosed lanai. Enjoy lazy weekends and a full Florida experience right at home with an oversized pool that overlooks the lake and tropical greenery, spa, covered areas and the pre-plumbed space for a summer kitchen. Additional features of note is the three-car, side-load garage and laundry room. All on one story and brimming with potential to create your ultimate Florida home just moments from premier shopping and dining, SRQ Airport and a short drive to world-famous beaches.
