This remarkable lakefront residence boasts an inviting and well-designed layout, enhanced by the added advantage of minimal HOA fees. Situated in the serene community of Park Trace, its proximity to Oscar Sherer State Park, the Legacy Trail, Pine View School (rated A), and US 41 adds to its convenience. Upon entry, the great room welcomes you with disappearing sliding doors that unveil a stunning view of the pool and the lake. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with newer smudge-proof stainless steel appliances, solid surface countertops, an abundance of cabinets, a breakfast area, and a convenient snack counter. For special gatherings, there is a formal dining room adorned with a floor-to-ceiling arched window and it overlooks the great room. Across from the dining room there is a nice size study with a raised tray ceiling. The owner's retreat is a haven with a window offering picturesque lake views, a raised tray ceiling, and an attached bath featuring a garden tub, glass-panel walk-in shower, & separate vanities. The three way split floor plan gives each bedroom an adjacent bath and lots of privacy. The bonus room on the second floor has beautiful lake view and could easily be a fourth bedroom as the seller will add a closet prior to closing if the buyer would like. Designed for entertainment, the screened and partially covered lanai features a BBQ pad, a pool and outdoor shower. Dog owners will appreciate the allowance for fencing. The lush landscaping is well-maintained with irrigation from both sprinklers and well water. The large three-car garage includes attic storage and convenient hurricane shutters for ease of use. The location is amazing and you are close to so many restaurants and minutes away from the Gulf of Mexico. Siesta Key is only 15 minutes away too!
