Welcome to a truly distinctive residence, masterfully envisioned by acclaimed architect Francis Rodriguez and expertly built by Nutter Construction. Located in the exclusive, gated enclave of The Lake Club in Lakewood Ranch, this remarkable home offers a secure and serene lifestyle, ideal for those seeking refuge from hurricane threats. Spanning nearly 5,000 square feet of air-conditioned space, the home features 4 spacious bedrooms, 3.5 luxurious bathrooms, and 4 climate-controlled garage bays (one with a lift for two vehicles), all set on a pristine half-acre lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. Privacy and quality craftsmanship define every inch of this exceptional estate. From the moment you arrive, the home’s elegance is unmistakable. A stone-accented porte-cochère and stately cast iron double doors set a sophisticated tone. Inside, imported limestone flooring from Alicante, Spain, and soaring 12-foot ceilings with wood-beamed accents create a warm yet refined atmosphere. Every element—from impact-rated windows, doors, and sliders to the premium Viking appliances in the chef’s kitchen—has been thoughtfully selected to offer the highest level of luxury and resilience. The primary suite, situated on the main floor, offers a serene retreat with a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and expansive closets. Step through to your private patio—a peaceful spot to enjoy a coffee, meditate, or watch the sun dip below the horizon. Upstairs, a second terrace reveals stunning views of the manicured landscaping and tranquil lake beyond. Outdoors, the west-facing patio—with electric screens to keep open for unobstructed views and closed when needed—boasts an elegant pool, spa, and waterfall. Entertain with ease thanks to a fully outfitted outdoor kitchen, perfect for casual get-togethers or elegant evenings under the stars. Designed with flow and light in mind, the floor plan delivers seamless transitions between spaces, making everyday living effortless and enjoyable.
