Imagine pulling into the pavered driveway of this modern home in the gated Sweetwater neighborhood of Lakewood Ranch, admiring the classic British West Indies-inspired facade and ceramic tile roof before stepping onto the inviting front porch. Meticulously maintained and nearly new, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Juniper floorplan by M/I Homes is loaded with upgrades and perfectly positioned on a lushly landscaped lot with southern-facing pond views and peaceful conservation in the distance. Inside, a soaring two-story foyer welcomes you, beautifully accented by custom wood trim. Just off the entry, a versatile den offers a quiet space to work from home, read, or set up a playroom. As you move further into the residence, the thoughtfully designed open layout unfolds, creating an inviting environment where daily life and entertaining flow naturally together. Picture preparing meals in the spacious kitchen, utilizing the natural gas cooktop, double wall ovens, and spacious quartz countertops while everyone chats around the island or relaxes in the adjacent cafe. For evening gatherings, you can easily pour a drink at the formal dining room's custom dry bar, complete with a built-in wine fridge, before sitting down for dinner. Afterward, relax in the comfortable Great Room beneath the tray ceiling, anchored by a custom marble and stacked-stone fireplace wall. Slide open the impact glass doors to experience the true centerpiece of the property: a gorgeous, extended, screened-in lanai and heated saltwater pool. Here, you can spend your weekends floating beside the cascading waterfall features, hosting barbecues at the fully equipped outdoor kitchen, or watching the sunset with a cold beverage under the private pergola. Framed by tropical landscaping, privacy hedging, and peaceful, southern-facing pond views with conservation in the distance, this entire backyard feels like a personal oasis. When it's time to unwind, the first-floor Primary Retreat offers a quiet sanctuary, featuring an elegant tray ceiling and an en-suite bath where you can rinse off in the floor-to-ceiling tiled shower or enjoy a long soak in the garden tub. Upstairs, the layout provides a separate haven for family or visitors, centered around a spacious loft ideal for game nights. Guests will feel right at home in the private suite with its own full bath, while another bedroom is already styled as a cozy home theater with a custom wood-slat wall. An additional secondary bedroom and full bathroom in the upstairs hallway round out the second floor space.
