Spectacular western sunsets, peaceful water views and exceptional privacy from your extended screened lanai, overlooking a grassy berm with no homes directly behind. Offered by its original owners, this 2015 residence combines a desirable open floor plan, thoughtful upgrades and an impressive list of improvements. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a versatile den/flex room and a 2-car garage with a 4-foot extension, this home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully enhanced. The open floor plan features upgraded tile flooring throughout the main living areas and baths, granite kitchen countertops, a stylish backsplash, convenient pull-out shelving in lower cabinets and three distinctive pendant lights with hand-blown glass shades above the kitchen island. A custom-built butler's pantry provides additional storage near the garage entry, while the den/flex room features newer luxury vinyl plank flooring. The primary suite offers a dropped tray ceiling, custom barn door separating the bedroom and bath, and an upgraded walk-in shower with sliding glass enclosure. Additional details include comfort-height toilets, newer faucets in the kitchen and both bathrooms, and a foyer display shelf for treasured collectibles. The true highlight is the extended 12' x 20' screened lanai, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, entertaining friends or simply unwinding while enjoying Florida's spectacular sunsets. The tranquil water view, grassy berm and absence of homes directly behind provide a wonderful sense of privacy. No-see-um screening and replaced lanai screen fasteners enhance outdoor enjoyment. A screened front porch and widened driveway add even more convenience. The original owners have taken exceptional care to maintain and protect their home. The tile roof has been inspected annually, with roof vents proactively replaced with galvanized aluminum vents in 2026. The entire exterior was painted and sealed in 2021. A whole-house generator connected to a 500-gallon propane tank was installed in 2023 and carries a 10-year warranty. Storm protection includes impact glass in three windows and hurricane curtains on the remaining windows and doors, including five motorized units with remote controls. Additional features include an insulated garage door, upgraded attic insulation and two ceiling-mounted garage storage racks. Major updates include a new HVAC system and water heater in 2025, a new washer and dryer in 2025, and a new refrigerator in 2024.
