Description
On the market for the first time in 20 years, this is the home you've been waiting for in The Lakes Estates. Perfectly positioned on a quiet street, the home is located on a .89-acre lot overlooking the big lake and a lit water fountain. The floor plan has three bedrooms (one bedroom is an ensuite), three bathrooms, an office, a large kitchen/family room combination, a living room (currently the fun game room), and a dining room (perfect for a second office), and will work for all sizes of families. The natural light glistens throughout from FIVE sets of sliding glass doors and several skylights. This is the ultimate home for entertaining with a huge remodeled kitchen in 2021 which consists of gorgeous quartz countertops, soft-close wood cabinets throughout, a lovely island, Whirlpool appliances, and a full bar area with a wine cooler. In 2016, the pool was remodeled with new tile and resurfaced with PebbleTec which has a lifetime warranty. The beautiful brick pavers add a level of elegance to the large lanai. A new smart hurricane-rated garage door was installed in 2020, and in 2018 a new updated electrical panel was added. In 2023 the owners had a third nail installed to the roof trusses for additional support. The Lakes Estates is an iconic sought-after neighborhood with amazing amenities such as TWO community pools (one is heated), a huge clubhouse with full kitchen, a workout room, two lit tennis courts, a basketball court, and a playground. There is something for everyone and I promise you won't be disappointed.
