Welcome home to relaxed Florida living with a spectacular view high above the Manatee River. This inviting 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath plus extended den, 3 car garage and private pool home welcomes you with an upgraded paver driveway and walkway leading to an inviting covered front porch, perfect for morning coffee or evening chats. Step inside to a bight open floor plan filled with natural light from the triple pocketing sliding glass doors highlighting the large living room for seamless indoor/outdoor space. Outdoor living truly shines here! The expansive custom and extended lanai stretches the full length of the home with dedicated areas for lounging in the sun, covered dining already plumbed for an outdoor kitchen plus plenty of space to enjoy the private pool - a perfect setting for entertaining or simply unwinding. The extended den (an extra 60 square feet added) located at the rear of the home, enjoys the calming nature view and includes custom-built cabinetry with plenty of shelving and another set of sliding glass doors leading to the lanai. The multi-function space is big enough to be used as an extra guest room, craft room or office and still has room for a comfortable sitting area. The kitchen includes granite countertops, a pantry, plenty of cabinets plus an eating area with French doors that open directly to the outdoor dining space. For more formal dining, there is a dedicated area that provides plenty of room to gather with family and friends. This stunning home features a split bedroom plan, with the primary bedroom having its own en-suite bath with double vanities, walk in Roman shower and large double closets. Recent updates bring peace of mind, including a new roof (2025), new lanai cage screening with reinforced tubing (2025), and a new HVAC system (2023). The 3-car garage includes a utility sink, ideal for gardeners and the mature landscaping has been lovingly cared for. Additional features include a professional surround sound system inside and out, custom wood drapery rods, crown molding in the main living areas, plantation shutters, and gutters around the entire home. This special home blends comfort, quality, and beautiful surroundings — a place you’ll love coming home to every day.
