A French country masterpiece by Arthur Rutenberg Homes, this breathtakingly tranquil residence is enveloped by lovely landscaping, tropical palms and a protected preserve on over half an acre home site in THE LAKE CLUB. Florida’s natural beauty is elegantly showcased throughout the spacious interiors where organic finishes and sophisticated features harmonize. Entering through the oil-rubbed iron glass doors, mesmerizing flow is complemented by arched wall niches, stone and textured accents, painted double tray ceilings, and gorgeous hickory hardwood floors. A grand great room transitions effortlessly onto the screened lanai through impact pocketing sliding doors and into the impressive chef’s kitchen and dining room. Express your culinary skills with Brookhaven custom maple cabinetry, exposed beam ceiling, extended island for gathering, granite counters, gas cooktop with pot filler, tile backsplash, and built-in desk. Disappearing corner, impact pocketing sliders in the dining room allow for a complete indoor-outdoor experience when you need access to the built-in outdoor kitchen with a tongue-and-groove ceiling and fireplace for dining alfresco in the covered area that connects to the game room. The quintessential home for entertaining, the bonus/game room connects off the lanai through disappearing corner impact sliders and is decorated with an exposed brick wall and features a wet bar, card table nook, and overlooks the lake and preserve. Enjoy the refreshing heated pool with sun shelf and waterfall for a serene atmosphere surrounded by nature and privacy. The split floor plan ensures solitude to the two guest bedrooms and especially the master retreat boasting a sitting area with lanai access and lake views, and a luxurious en-suite bath with dual sinks, make-up vanity, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Exceeding expectations of needs and wants, there is a stunning study including a sitting space with wood-beamed coffered ceiling adding drama. An unbelievable oversized, air-conditioned three-car garage turned man-cave, fashioned in floor-to-ceiling tongue and groove pinewood wainscoting, pub tin ceiling, insulated and encased garage doors, and a half-bath with custom built-in cabinetry. Every thoughtful detail was meticulously considered when designing this Florida Green Builder Certified residence, including Low-E impact sliders and casement windows, Levitron dimmer switches, surround sound, Generac house generator, central vacuum, tankless water heater, and Platinum Control 4 home automation. The perfect home does exist, and this is it. Furnishings available with a few exceptions.
