The private primary suite features two closets, dual vanities with Crate & Barrel mirrors, upgraded tile, walk-in shower with rain shower head, and built-in speakers. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, den with glass doors, and laundry room complete the thoughtfully designed interior. Notable upgrades include hurricane-impact windows and doors, LVP flooring, crown molding, plantation shutters, custom Roman shades, designer lighting from Serena & Lily, Pottery Barn, and Crate & Barrel, five ceiling fans, dimmers throughout, LG washer and dryer, Culligan whole-home water filtration with reverse osmosis, HVAC UV light, whole-home surge protection, Guardian alarm system, built-in speakers, upgraded irrigation controls, additional recessed lighting, tall interior doors, and garage keypad access. Windward is one of Lakewood Ranch's premier gated communities, offering a resort-style pool, clubhouse, fitness center, pickleball and tennis courts, dog park, playground, walking trails, and numerous community parks. Ideally located near Waterside Place, University Town Center, downtown Sarasota, Gulf beaches, and SRQ Airport, this move-in-ready home combines the ease of newer construction with extensive upgrades already completed.
