Property Details
Description
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Set in Lakehouse Cove at Waterside, this custom Arthur Rutenberg home blends refined finishes, thoughtful design, and the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Lakewood Ranch is known for. From the moment you step inside, wood flooring, detailed trim work, and custom built-ins create a polished, elevated feel, while the open layout flows effortlessly from one space to the next. Just off the front entry, a private office with a pocket door creates a dedicated workspace without taking away from the flow of the home. The main living area is anchored by a spacious great room with custom built-ins, wood detailing, and a seamless connection to the kitchen and dining spaces. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with generous cabinetry, stone countertops, a wine refrigerator, and a separate bar area that adds another layer of function and style. The owner’s suite is privately positioned on the opposite side of the home and feels like a true retreat. French doors and double trim lead into the suite, while the en-suite bath features a freestanding tub, oversized walk-in shower, and two walk-in closets with custom built-in dressers. One additional bedroom near the kitchen includes its own en-suite bath, while another guest bedroom offers a walk-in closet and easy access to a full bathroom. A separate bonus room with built-ins offers flexible space for a second office, fitness room, media room, or additional lounge. The oversized laundry room is equally well appointed with extensive cabinetry, while the 3-car garage provides generous storage and parking. Outside, the home opens to a private Florida retreat with a heated saltwater pool, spa, covered lanai, and full outdoor kitchen. Impact-rated doors and windows throughout add peace of mind, while the screened outdoor living area creates the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying evenings at home. Additional features include a tankless water heater, security system, natural gas, upgraded landscaping, and custom details throughout that reinforce the home’s refined, tailored feel. Lakehouse Cove at Waterside offers one of Lakewood Ranch’s most desirable lifestyles, with resort-style amenities including a clubhouse, fitness center, community pool, pickleball, playgrounds, dog parks, scenic trails, water access, and community social activities. Residents also enjoy ferry and water taxi access to Waterside Place for dining, shopping, entertainment, and the Sunday farmers market. Beyond the community, you’re conveniently located near UTC, Lakewood Ranch Main Street, downtown Sarasota, premier shopping and dining, golf, medical facilities, parks, and the Gulf Coast beaches.
