Remarks: Welcome to Your Florida Dream Lifestyle in River Plantation. Imagine pulling into your driveway as the sun begins to set, casting golden reflections across the peaceful water just beyond your backyard. The day slows down here. Shoes come off, the lanai doors slide open, and the soft sounds of the pool and nature take over. Evenings are made for unwinding — a drink in hand by the pool, dinner sizzling on the outdoor kitchen, and laughter carrying across the water as friends and family gather under the covered lanai. This is where weekends feel like vacations… and weekdays don’t feel so busy. Step inside and feel the space open around you. With over 3,100 square feet, every room has been designed to live comfortably and entertain effortlessly. The heart of the home — your kitchen — invites connection, whether it’s casual breakfasts at the island or hosting unforgettable holidays in the oversized dining area. Need flexibility? You have it. A massive bonus room becomes whatever your life needs right now — movie nights, a home gym, a playroom, or the ultimate work-from-home setup. When it’s time to recharge, your private primary suite becomes a true retreat. Wake up to soft natural light, step out to the lanai with your morning coffee, and ease into your day with peaceful water views. Guests will feel just as at home with a private en-suite of their own — perfect for multigenerational living or extended stays. Outside is where this home truly shines. Your screened lanai, sparkling pool, fenced yard, and serene water backdrop create a setting that feels both private and connected to nature — a rare combination. And when you do venture out, you’re minutes from everything — I-75, shopping, dining, and the Gulf beaches — while still enjoying the quiet charm of River Plantation, with its low HOA, no CDD, and resort-style amenities.
