This beautiful, custom-built Arthur Rutenberg home presents a fantastic opportunity to reside in the sought-after Gulf Trace community. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by the high ceilings and rooms flooded with light. There is a sweeping view through the triple sliders past the pool area and the pond and conservation area. Step outside to the oversized bird cage screened lanai, and covered patio. The saltwater pool has been updated with a stunning pebble-tec finish and converted to a saltwater system. As you enter, the office/den is to the left; just beyond that is the main bedroom with two walk-in closets and the spa-like updated bathroom. There are great views and doors leading out to the lanai. The living room dining room combination can be flip-flopped depending on how you would like to use the space, or maybe a pool table. There are two more bedrooms and another bathroom on the right side of the house. This creates privacy for other family members or guests. The chef's kitchen features a gas range with a fully vented hood and matching stainless steel appliances. Doors with views and access to the lanai surround the open floor plan kitchen and family room. This great indoor-outdoor space is fabulous for entertaining and relaxing.

It has matching stainless steel appliances, high-low cabinets, granite counters, a pantry, a breakfast bar, and a lovely bump-out dinette area.

Mature tropical landscaping and a front entry courtyard round off just some of the attractive features of this home. AC was replaced in 2020; the gas hot water heater was replaced in 2021. Attic storage is accessible in the garage. This house has been impeccably kept.
