This single-story pool home is perfectly positioned on a waterfront lot, offering sweeping lake views from nearly every room. Boasting 3,534 sq ft, 4 spacious bedrooms, 4 full baths, and an oversized side-entry 2-car garage, this home is a private retreat. A stately stone façade with elegant columns and a transom-topped double-door entry sets the tone as you arrive. Inside, a formal dining room welcomes you with a grand arched window, while the formal living room features sliding glass doors that open to the lanai. Newer laminate flooring (installed in 2019 and 2023) enhances the home's warmth. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen, with tile flooring, abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island, desk space, and recessed lighting beneath a crown-molded ceiling. A cozy bay window breakfast nook overlooks the pool, and French doors from the breakfast area open directly to the screen-enclosed lanai for year round relaxation.

Vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams add dramatic character, and this space enjoys the best water views. From the foyer, French doors lead into the serene primary suite, where crown molding, a walk-in closet, and a secondary closet provide comfort and convenience. The ensuite bath is beautifully appointed with a seamless glass-enclosed tiled shower featuring a rain head, bench seating, coordinating accent tile wall and floor, shampoo niche, and grab bars. A dramatic stained-glass window fills the space with soft, natural light, complemented by a cozy bench beneath it. An adjacent bedroom is ideal for use as a nursery, office, or private sitting room. A split-bedroom layout ensures privacy, with two additional bedrooms situated across the home. One features its own ensuite bath that also connects to the hallway.
