Waterside Lakewood Ranch | Windward Homes For Sale | Sarasota

-SOLD- 

This exquisitely UPGRADED “Savannah II” model checks all the boxes! Perfectly situated on one of the most sought-after WATERFRONT LOTS in the gated community of Windward at Lakewood Ranch. Listed for sale @ $1,399,000.  

The moment you step inside, you’ll have that “WOW” feeling. If you can think of an upgrade or custom feature… this home likely has it. NO EXPENSE WAS SPARED in this impeccably designed home!

Step inside to the GREAT ROOM which features custom wood beam TRAY CEILINGS and POCKETING SLIDERS that guide your eye directly to the outdoor living space, pool/spa, and tranquil water and preserve view.

LET’S CUT TO THE CHASE and talk about the POOL AND VIEW because that’s what living in Florida is all about!

The outdoor space is a private oasis designed for the ultimate Florida lifestyle. Ideally situated with SOUTHERN REAR EXPOSURE, the expansive covered lanai provides shade year round, while the saltwater pool/spa basks in the Florida sunshine. The PANORAMIC lanai screen perfectly frames the peaceful WATER VIEW, backed by a tree lined preserve. Lush landscaping and evening accent lighting enhance the serene setting, creating a perfect backdrop for relaxation and entertaining both day and night.

A signature feature of Florida living, the exquisite custom-built OUTDOOR KITCHEN features imported Italian granite, hot/cold sink, a refrigerator, and a premium grill and hood vent ideal for any outdoor event, casual gathering, or large parties.

You could spend all day lounging on the lanai, but let’s step back inside through the pocket sliders and talk about the GOURMET KITCHEN.

Again, the owners spared no expense here!  The floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, quartz countertops, and built-in appliances exude luxury. The wall oven and gas cooktop (with cabinet-faced vent hood) are perfect for CHEF-INSPIRED moments, daily meals, or a full-house holiday gathering.  The expansive quartz kitchen island has under-counter seating for four or more, and is a central focal and gathering point for the entire great room space.

With a custom-organized pantry, separate beverage/buffet station, and additional under island cabinetry, storage is no issue in a kitchen this well planned and designed.

The SPLIT FLOORPLAN of the Savannah II truly is a perfect blend of function and luxury, and is a major reason people gravitate to this layout!  Featuring 3 Bedrooms, a Den, Club Room, 3 baths, 3 car garage, 2,868 sq ft of living space, and an expansive lanai pool/spa… every space is maximized in its function and purpose.

At the front of the home, custom styled barn doors open to a versatile room that can serve as a DEN/STUDY, a formal dining area, or hobby space. (The current owners use this as a formal dining area.)

The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers privacy for guests, with a generously sized guest suite featuring an en-suite bath and walk-in shower, as well as an additional guest bedroom with a custom walk-in closet and stand-up steamer. A full guest bathroom and a spacious CLUB ROOM at the rear of the home provide additional comfort and functionality, with direct access to the lanai for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

The OWNER’S SUITE, set on the opposite side of the home, is a true retreat. Sunlight fills the space through the many impact windows that also provide views of the gorgeous pool, water and preserve. The tray ceiling elevates the space, leading to the spa-like EN-SUITE BATH.  Luxury finishes include dual vanities, a luxurious soaking tub with ship lap accents, an oversized tiled shower, and two walk-in closets with custom built-in organization.

DESIGNER FEATURES elevate the space and include Plantation Shutters, custom light fixtures and fans, motorized shades, shiplap architectural accents, and barn doors.  

Not only were designer elements added… This home is enhanced by a wealth of ADDITIONAL UPGRADES, including IMPACT GLASS windows and doors throughout, TILE flooring in all rooms (no carpet), 8 foot interior doors, epoxy-coated garage floors, CUSTOM GARAGE shelving and cabinetry, and a whole-house Generac GENERATOR with surge protection. There is a Kinetico WATER SOFTENER for the whole house and reverse osmosis water in the kitchen. Also, a private dog run adjacent to the lanai is already in place; a lovely bonus for those who have pups!
