Remarks:

Mornings here have a different pace. Coffee on the lanai, a breeze moving through the trees, and just enough quiet to feel like you've stepped away without actually being far from anything. Set on a double lot with no HOA, there's space to spread out and actually enjoy where you live. Mature trees, fruit in the yard, and a setting that feels established instead of packed in. The arrival feels intentional too, with an oversized driveway, garden paths, and a front entry that gives the home a sense of presence. Inside, natural light fills the home through the impact rated windows, and the ceiling height, 12 feet in the main areas and 11 feet throughout, gives everything room to breathe. Crown molding and tray ceilings add detail in a subtle, finished way. It's comfortable. The kind of space that works just as well on a slow morning as it does when people are over. The kitchen is where people come together. Quartz countertops give you room to spread out, the custom 42 inch cabinetry keeps everything within reach, and the layout stays connected to the rest of the home. It's easy to picture holiday meals, family gatherings, and the moments in between that tend to last longer than expected. The split layout gives everyone their own space when they want it. The primary suite opens directly to the lanai, so stepping outside feels like part of the routine. The bathroom has been fully updated with a glass enclosed shower, soaking tub, and finishes that make it a place you can actually slow down for a minute. Outside is where the day naturally winds down. The lanai becomes part of your rhythm, with an automated screen that lets you shift between sun and shade throughout the day. And as the evening settles in, the Hot Springs spa becomes the place you end up more often than you expect. Conversations last longer out here. You look up and realize more time has passed than you thought. The yard is private, fenced, and layered with different areas to sit or gather, giving you space that feels your own. Beyond the feel of it, the home has been thoughtfully improved over time with 17 new hurricane impact windows, updated water and sewer, a 5 ton AC with extended warranty, a reconditioned roof with warranty, and a level of care that shows up the longer you spend here. And beyond the home, the lifestyle just keeps going. A short walk puts you on the trails at South Lemon Bay Preserve, where it's just you, the trees, and the sound of nature instead of traffic. A quick bike ride and you're on Manasota Beach, catching sunsets that never really get old. Some days it's the beach, some days it's boating, and some days it's just dinner nearby without overthinking it. It's the kind of location where your days don't need much planning to feel fulfilled.
