Residenza Unifamiliare A Sarasota

Welcome to the model home that became the face of Lakewood Ranch. Lee Wetherington built this Mainstay Model in LakeHouse Cove at Waterside as its showcase model for the community. Every design decision is already made, with more than $240,000 in Platinum Series selections and Arhaus lighting throughout. Peace of mind comes standard, with impact windows, a Generac generator, whole house surge protection, camera security, Control4 smart home control and an EV charger. The homesite is framed by landscaped common area and walking paths behind and to one side, with privacy hedges for a secluded feel, no homes directly across and lake and sunset views across the green. A handcrafted iron entry door with electric privacy glass opens to 3,209 square feet with three bedrooms, three and a half baths, a den and a bonus room. European white oak floors, Cambria quartz, Medallion cabinetry, automatic shades, pocket doors and architectural ceilings with cove lighting run throughout. The great room features a shiplap grid ceiling, built-in speakers and a quartz and shiplap fireplace wall with lighted shelving. The kitchen offers a navy island, farmhouse sink, tile backsplash to the ceiling, gas cooktop, wall oven, convection microwave, paneled refrigerator, wine refrigerator and roll-out storage, plus a walk-in pantry with custom drawers and a desk. A formal dining room completes the entertaining core. The primary suite is a private retreat with a double-cove lighted ceiling, a coffee bar with beverage refrigerator, and his and hers custom walk-in closets with lighted cabinetry. The bath is tiled floor to ceiling beneath a floating ceiling feature, with Cambria double vanities, Arhaus mirrors, a freestanding soaking tub and an oversized shower with dual heads, handhelds and a large bench. Guests get a wing of their own, with two suites that each have a private bath and custom walk-in closet, steps from the bonus room with built-in speakers. A den for working from home, a built-in landing area, a laundry room with a tiled dog bath, a 3-car garage with storage cabinets, and a lighted storage room with shelving make daily life easy. Sliding doors open the entire back of the home to a lanai built for entertaining, with a gas fireplace, outdoor TV and speakers, and a summer kitchen with granite counters, grill, hood and sink. The heated saltwater pool and spa, with waterfalls and spill bowls, is surrounded by a wood-look porcelain sundeck under a full screen enclosure. LakeHouse Cove offers a clubhouse, resort-style pool and fitness center, and Waterside Place dining and shops are close by, with UTC, I-75, downtown Sarasota and Lido Key and Siesta Key beaches within easy reach. There was only one original model, and this is it. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER. INQUIRE FOR MORE DETAILS.**
