Imagine waking up every day in your beautiful home located in the heart of one of the most sought-after Lakewood Ranch gated neighborhoods, the Cove at Edgewater Village. Before you even enter, you'll fall in love with the home's tremendous curb appeal that comes from the meticulously well-maintained lawn/landscaping and paver driveway. Once inside, the near 1700 sq ft open concept floor plan wows with high ceilings and tasteful tile flooring throughout the living areas. The kitchen's gas range makes cooking a breeze and when it comes time to eat, you can choose to dine in the formal space connected to the living room, at the kitchen's Corian bar top, or in the light and bright breakfast nook. You can also opt to live the true indoor-outdoor Florida lifestyle by virtue of opening the sliding doors to the adjacent outdoor kitchen located on the private lanai, which backs up to a nature preserve and is staggered from your neighbor's view, making it perfect for outdoor relaxing, dining, and entertaining. The spacious master suite features a set of walk-in closets and a bathroom with dual vanity sinks, soaker tub, and shower; and is separated from the 2nd bedroom by a french doored den that can be used as an office or extra room when guest are in town. Nestled on the shores of Lake Uihlein, the community is friendly & peaceful and, in addition to security and yard maintenance, includes a community pool, fishing pier, and private dock & boat launch with its reasonable monthly dues. To top it off, its proximity to Lakewood Ranch’s dining, shopping, A-rated schools, and attractions, like open-air weekend festivals, shopping farm-to-table, golf courses, nearby polo games, and a social calendar that seems to never end make the location of the home very convenient for a fabulous day to day life; plus it only a short drive to some of the world most renown white sand beaches on Siesta Key, Lido Key, Longboat Key, and Anna Maria Island or spending the day in Tampa/St. Pete, Ft. Myers/Naples, and everywhere in between!
