Designed with casually elegant and maintenance-free Florida living as paramount, this beautifully crafted home (The Crestview) built by Divosta awaits. Upon entry, guests feel 'at home' immediately in a carefully curated environment that is infinitely comfortable. With a design that makes the kitchen, the dining area/cafe, and the great room the heart of family life, attractive porcelain 'wood plank' tile and a soothing color palette combine to create a welcoming ambiance. The kitchen has wood cabinetry accentuated with a tile backsplash and under-cabinet lighting, Quartz countertops, and a stainless steel appliance package. An expansive pocketing slider opens to the lanai, gracefully integrating the indoor/outdoor living areas, thus capturing the essence of Florida living at its finest. Just steps out the door, you will find a heated saltwater pool with three whimsical fountains and a 'picture frame' lanai screen to capture the picturesque intersecting canal view just beyond. The home's split floor plan was designed to provide ample privacy for residents and guests. Relaxation is encouraged in the primary bedroom, with an ensuite bath that offers dual sinks, a private water closet, a refreshing walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet. Bedroom two will accommodate guests in comfort and is located adjacent to the guest bathroom, which offers a tub/shower combo with an attractive tile surround and a linen closet in the nearby hallway. This innovative floor plan offers a 'flex' room that can be used as a third bedroom, an office, or perhaps a media room--the choice is yours. An extended garage is nicely finished with an epoxy floor to help keep everything neat and tidy and built-in storage racks to maximize space efficiency. This charming home enjoys an enviable location in Venice within the highly desired and amenity-rich community of Islandwalk. Here, two community clubhouses with resort-style pools, an exercise/lap pool, tennis/pickleball courts, a playground, a basketball court, a dog park, and a community garden are all found within a short golf cart drive from the front door. Running and biking enthusiasts will appreciate the trails throughout the community. Pristine Gulf beaches, the allurements of Venice Island, access to I-75, and medical services are within a short drive, and Cool Today Park, home to the Atlanta Braves spring training and the new Wellen Park marketplace, with a variety of shopping and dining venues, is nearby. Your truly sensational Florida lifestyle awaits! Call today to schedule a private showing, and prepare to be captivated by this dynamic community where your vacation never has to end.
