Welcome to Canoe Creek, where this 2025 Neal Communities Eventide offers 2 bedrooms plus a den and 2 full baths on a pond with open water views from the great room, lanai and primary suite. Barely lived in and loaded with builder upgrades, it delivers the feel of new construction without the build timeline, with hurricane impact windows, plantation shutters and an epoxy-coated garage already in place. The Coastal Craftsman exterior features lap-siding gables, a covered front porch and full landscaping with landscape lighting, all freshly pressure washed and finished with a new holly tree out front. Inside, large-format marble-look tile runs from the foyer through the main living areas. The split floor plan centers on an open great room with a tray ceiling, recessed lighting and triple sliding glass doors framing the water. The upgraded kitchen pairs white shaker cabinetry with quartz countertops, a marble mosaic backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, a chimney-style range hood over a smooth-top cooktop, a built-in wall oven and microwave, stainless steel appliances and a large island with an undermount sink and crystal pendants. A walk-in pantry, a dining area and a casual dining nook with water views complete the space. The primary suite sits at the back of the home with a tray ceiling, plantation shutters, transom windows and a direct pond view. Two walk-in closets keep storage simple, and the en suite bath offers a dual-sink quartz vanity, a walk-in shower with a glass panel and both rain and handheld shower heads, plus a private water closet. The guest bedroom and full bath sit at the front of the home for privacy, and the den, set behind double doors with wood-look tile, works as a home office, media room or hobby space. Out back, the screened lanai stretches across much of the rear of the home with a ceiling fan, room for both lounging and dining, and a screen door to a deep backyard that runs to the water's edge. The laundry room adds a utility sink, cabinetry and a storage closet, and the insulated two-car garage with a mini split and epoxy floor doubles as a climate-controlled workshop or gym. Canoe Creek residents enjoy a resort-style pool, fitness center, pickleball courts, dog park, fire pit and picnic shelter. The community sits minutes from the Fort Hamer Bridge to Lakewood Ranch, with easy access to I-75 and US-301, Ellenton Premium Outlets, and commutes to Tampa and St. Petersburg, all within reach of the Gulf Coast beaches.
