Nestled within Highlands Vista, an exclusive gated enclave of just 48 custom homes in one of South Lakeland's most desirable locations, this impeccably maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom pool home offers the perfect combination of elegance, comfort, and modern convenience. Thoughtfully updated and meticulously cared for, this exceptional residence is ready to welcome its next owner. Step through the double doors into a versatile flex space that can serve as a home office, sitting room, playroom, or additional living area, along with a separate formal dining room perfect for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, a dramatic waterfall island, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse marble sink, glass tile backsplash, custom cabinetry, skylight, and a custom-built walk-in pantry. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room and casual dining area, with French doors leading to the covered lanai and pool area. Natural light fills the home, highlighting the high ceilings, tray ceilings, crown molding, recessed lighting, and architectural details throughout. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for the spacious primary suite, which features French door access to the lanai and pool, dual walk-in closets, beautiful bamboo flooring installed in 2021, and a luxurious en-suite bath with dual granite vanities, a jetted garden tub, walk-in shower with seating, and private water closet.

One bedroom functions as a private guest suite with its own bathroom, dual vanities, walk-in shower, and separate water closet making it ideal for multi-generational living or extended guests. A dedicated office provides additional flexibility for working from home. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a screened lanai, convenient kitchen pass-through serving counter, sparkling pool with child safety gate, repainted pool deck, fully fenced backyard, and a playset that conveys with the home.
