Welcome to Warwick Gardens in University Park Country Club, where timeless finishes, updated systems, and generous entertaining spaces come together in a private lakefront setting. Tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, this beautifully landscaped residence enjoys expansive lake views with no homes directly across the water. A circular stone-paver driveway, grand covered entrance, and side-entry garage create an impressive arrival. Inside, 12-foot ceilings, crown molding, recessed lighting, and diagonally laid ceramic tile establish a welcoming interior. The spacious living room features a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and triple sliders opening to the travertine-paver lanai. The kitchen offers custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas cooktop, and a pot filler. A dedicated dry bar adds convenience for entertaining, while the breakfast nook’s oversized aquarium window captures views of the pool and lake. The adjoining family room features a coffered ceiling and coral-tiled accent wall. The split-bedroom floor plan includes three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a spacious den. The primary suite features a tray ceiling, two walk-in closets with custom built-ins, and a sitting area framed by three large windows overlooking the pool and lake. The primary bath offers dual granite vanities, a soaking tub, and a large tiled walk-in shower. The den showcases rich wood flooring, extensive custom cabinetry and bookcases, a built-in window bench, a vaulted ceiling, glass French doors, and direct access to the outdoor living area. The expansive lanai provides ample space for entertaining, with a pool, infinity spa, and two generously sized covered living areas. A summer kitchen with a built-in grill and a gas fireplace create an inviting setting for year-round outdoor enjoyment. The pool was resurfaced in July 2025, and remote-controlled hurricane shades protect both covered living spaces. Additional highlights include a 2021 tile roof, a 2024 whole-house generator, a Guardian Plus whole-house indoor air quality system, and rear hurricane shutters. The oversized side-entry garage accommodates two vehicles plus a golf cart and features an epoxy-coated floor, a Finnish-style dry sauna, built-in storage, and a workbench. University Park Country Club offers 27 holes of golf, 11 lighted Har-Tru tennis courts, four pickleball courts, fitness facilities, croquet, dining, and a full calendar of social activities. A staffed, 24-hour gated entrance welcomes residents and guests, with UTC shopping and dining, downtown Sarasota, Gulf beaches, cultural attractions, healthcare, and Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport conveniently nearby.
