The gourmet kitchen is equally impressive with GE Profile Series appliances, natural gas cooktop, quartz countertops, oversized center island with additional storage, soft-close cabinetry, beverage refrigerator, and an exceptional butler’s pantry with abundant cabinetry plus a walk-in pantry concealed behind a stylish frosted glass door. The first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat with designer room-darkening window treatments, an expansive walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, quartz countertops, a separate soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, and relaxing rainfall showerhead. Upstairs, the spacious bonus room, adjacent bedroom, and full bath provide incredible flexibility for multigenerational living, extended guests, a secondary office, media room, or private retreat. Additional upgrades include a spacious laundry room with utility sink, tankless water heater, water softener system, upgraded bedroom carpeting, and epoxy-coated floors in the 3-car garage. The covered lanai is already equipped with a natural gas connection for a future outdoor kitchen and is pre-wired for a future pool and spa, making it easy to create the ultimate Florida backyard overlooking the water. Lawn maintenance and irrigation are included in the community’s low HOA fees, allowing more time to enjoy the exceptional Star Farms lifestyle. Residents have access to multiple amenity campuses featuring resort-style pools and spa, fitness and wellness centers, pickleball, tennis and basketball courts, pet parks, playgrounds, a coffee shop, community events, and The Palm Bar restaurant at The Resort Club. Ideally located near shopping, dining, top-rated schools including the newer Lake Manatee K-8 School, and Florida’s renowned Gulf Coast beaches, this home offers the space, upgrades, waterfront setting, and resort lifestyle Lakewood Ranch buyers are looking for. **Featured on FOX 4’s Out and About SW Florida, this exceptional property is ready to enjoy now—without the wait for new construction.**
