Rarely available and one of a kind...this custom built home, located on one of the prettiest lakefront sites in Laurel Lakes, takes advantage of the wide & long lake views, & in offering perfection outside, offers perfection inside as well. Impeccably & lovingly maintained, this executive home has the ambiance of a model, quality built with meticulous details throughout. With impressive curb appeal & architectural presence, the visitor is drawn to the leaded glass double entry doors & upon entering, the drama of the amazing view is likely to take one's breath away. With an open, split plan, most rooms embrace views of the lake, its ever-changing light, & the frequent presence of snowy pelicans, egrets & parrots. As you walk through this home, you'll be impressed by the Plantation shutters; interior architectural columns; upgraded mirrors; wide crown moldings; extensive 18" tile flooring on the diagonal; upgraded light fixtures & ceiling fans; & freshly painted walls. The kitchen is a dream with glazed, upgraded cabinets, under cabinet lighting, granite counters, mosaic glass back splash, & oversize breakfast bar. And perhaps, most stunning, is a private, very spacious lakeside screened lanai {1,080 sq. ft.} surrounded by mature landscaping, ideal for entertaining, family celebrations, or relaxation. Located in a gated neighborhood, residents enjoy a clubhouse with community pool, tennis courts, & a location surprisingly close to the beaches, downtown, restaurants, shopping & golf courses. Perfection.
