The master bath is fit for Royalty. It features solid-surface counters, dual vanities, designer cabinetry, a Roman shower, 3 Mediterranean windows., and floor to ceiling decorative tile.

There are 4 sets of glass sliders providing easy access to the pool areas. 3 of them are pocket doors, meaning they virtually disappear when opened. These sliders, along with a multitude of oversized windows and transoms illuminate the interior with soft, natural light. Open them to blur the distinction between indoors and out by allowing the subtropical breezes, summer fragrances, and the sounds of nature to fill the interior. Utility features include intercom, security, central-vacuum, and HVAC UV filtration systems. The location is also amazing. The lot, at 16,000 SqFt, is 60% larger than most lots in Rotonda. This is the reason this home has a stately setback, an 80’ extended driveway, plus a huge 1/10 acre, fenced backyard with lush green grass. This home is also on the only street in RW (Rotonda Blvd East) to have sidewalks, bike lanes, a tree-lined median, AND a community park with tennis and pickle-ball courts, trails, picnic pavilions, a soccer field, etc. The garage is spotless, has polished floors and extended height, and an insulated garage door.
