The opportunity to own an award-winning home is finally here! This four-time Parade of Homes winner is the former Emilia model home by London Bay Homes in the desirable Matera section of the Lake Club. Filled with fine details and international flair, this residence evokes a Spanish Mediterranean exterior and a French Country interior all ensconced in a neutral color palette so you can add your personal style. Uniquely situated in the Matera section, this lakeside home features both grounds and pool maintenance in your dues - a rare find anywhere! Bright, updated Florida landscaping lines the paver walkway to the front entry where you'll find a charming patio before entering the large foyer. Indoors you'll be immediately entranced with travertine flooring and amazingly high, volume ceilings that soar 18 feet high with white beams and transom windows letting in the natural light. The great room and dining room blend seamlessly together with center-opening, pocketing sliding glass doors to the lanai. The eastern rear exposure makes for beautiful Florida sunrises over the lake each morning. On the spacious lanai surrounded by iron fencing you'll also find herringbone pavers, pristine landscaping, an outdoor fireplace, extra patio space, a dog lawn, open air pool and spa, insect misters, outdoor kitchen with bar fridge and grill, and remote control shades built into the decorative arches. The same bright and cozy feel continues into the kitchen with elegant travertine, volume ceilings, transom windows and decorative arches. Chefs will be inspired by the central island with seating, stainless steel appliance suite including 2023 refrigerator and dishwasher, dual pantries with shelving, plentiful stone counter space, full-height stone backsplash above the cooktop, white country cabinetry, and 2019 reverse osmosis system. The best part of this residence is through the arched private hall into the full master wing featuring the master bedroom with engineered wood flooring, crown molding, plantation shutters, and views of the lake. The master bath showcases travertine flooring, marble surround tub, a walk-in shower, and dual split vanities. Next door is the oversized 15' by 12' master closet that's big enough to be a bedroom with engineered wood flooring, custom built-in shelving, tall mirrors, and hidden storage. Guests will find equally luxurious accommodations with two en-suite guest bedrooms, one of which features custom built-ins, a murphy bed, and flexibility as a study. Rounding out this impressive residence is a powder bathroom; laundry room with 2023 washer and dryer; and 2-car garage with storage, Tesla charging station, and new 2023 garage doors. Peace of mind is found in the dual electrical panel surge protectors, 2019 whole house carbon filter, 2019 security system, 2019 water heater, and 2019 wired Wi-Fi access points. The Lake Club is a private gated community including a grande clubhouse, restaurant, pool, tennis, pickleball, playground, basketball, Linear Park, fitness center and interlinking lakes for kayaking or fishing. Lakewood Ranch is the top multi-generational community in the country for five years in a row with award-winning shopping, dining, A-rated schools, parks, and nearby beaches.
