About this home

Shouldn’t everyday living feel like a vacation? Here, it can. Beautifully upgraded and meticulously maintained, this stunning Luca model by Taylor Morrison is located in the sought-after, guarded and gated community of Esplanade Golf & Country Club at Lakewood Ranch. With an open-concept design and golf-deeded ownership, this home offers immediate access to Esplanade’s 18-hole championship golf course and an exceptional collection of resort-style amenities. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, this spacious single-story residence offers 4 bedrooms, 3 ensuite bathrooms, and a convenient half bath across 2,688 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. The expansive screened lanai takes full advantage of breathtaking southeast-facing views overlooking the golf course and water, creating a picturesque backdrop from morning to evening. A heated pool and spa, along with a well-appointed summer kitchen, make the outdoor living area ideal for relaxing, entertaining, and embracing the quintessential Florida lifestyle. With its seamless flow between indoor comfort and resort-style outdoor living, this home offers an exceptional setting for both everyday enjoyment and memorable gatherings. The recently updated gourmet kitchen features custom cabinetry, heat-resistant Quartzite countertops, a Bosch refrigerator, oversized island, and walk-in pantry. It opens seamlessly to the coffered-ceiling great room, while expansive sliding glass doors from both spaces provide effortless access to the lanai and pool area. The generously sized primary suite offers a private retreat, complemented by a large, custom bedroom closet. Two of the three guest bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms and are outfitted with custom closets that provide exceptional storage space, while the fourth bedroom could be used as a den/office. Additional highlights include a three-car garage, extensive crown molding, natural gas throughout, electric lanai awnings, a waterfall pool feature, French doors to the den/office, and an abundance of thoughtful upgrades. Recent improvements include a new HVAC system, new hurricane-impact iron French front door, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a recently replaced pool heater. The home is also prewired for an alarm system and interior speakers. Beyond your front door, Esplanade offers a true resort lifestyle with year-round golf, fitness facilities and classes, spa and salon services, a resort-style pool and Bahama Bar, tennis, pickleball, dining, dog parks, and an array of social activities. Ideally located just minutes from UTC Mall, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, Longboat Key, Siesta Key, and with convenient access to Tampa, this exceptional home puts the best of the Gulf Coast within easy reach. It’s time to stop dreaming about the vacation lifestyle—and start living it every day.
