Custom Arthur Rutenberg craftsmanship, professionally decorated interiors, and tranquil pond views set the stage for exceptional living in LakeHouse Cove at Lakewood Ranch. Enhanced with extensive upgrades by the current owner, this residence blends designer style with thoughtful features for comfort and entertaining. New engineered hardwood floors bring warmth to the interiors, complemented by plantation shutters, motorized shades, and built-in speakers inside and out. An office provides dedicated space for work, while a bonus room with a cathedral ceiling offers an impressive setting for relaxing or gathering with guests. A zero-edge sliding glass wall with motorized blinds opens the main living area to the lanai, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. The kitchen pairs sophisticated design with top-of-the-line Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, including a paneled refrigerator that blends into the cabinetry. A hidden pantry keeps essentials neatly tucked away, while a dedicated wine cabinet adds an elegant touch for entertaining. The primary suite features spacious his-and-hers closets and blackout shades for restful comfort. Additional cabinetry in the laundry room provides convenient storage. With its wood ceiling, panoramic screen, and beautiful pond views, the lanai is an inviting extension of the home. A saltwater pool and spa create your own outdoor retreat, while the fireplace and built-in speakers set the mood for evenings under the stars. Motorized hurricane screens provide added protection and convenience. Additional enhancements include a whole-home generator, whole-home water filtration system, and a garage mini-split system for added comfort. The lifestyle extends beyond your front door. LakeHouse Cove's amenity center features a state-of-the-art fitness center, a pool and spa overlooking the lake, pickleball courts, a playground, and a dog park. Enjoy kayaking on the lake or take the water taxi to Waterside Place for shopping, dining, the Sunday Farmers' Market, and Wednesday Ranch Nite. Beautifully finished and thoughtfully upgraded, this custom residence pairs the comfort of a private retreat with the recreation and social energy of LakeHouse Cove.
