Some homes offer beautiful views. Others offer an exceptional lifestyle. This remarkable residence in the 55+ Valencia Lakes delivers both. Perfectly positioned on one of the community's most desirable pie-shaped waterfront homesites, this south-facing property captures panoramic lake views while overlooking the vibrant community center. Its ideal orientation creates the perfect balance—allowing the pool and lanai to enjoy sunshine throughout the day while helping the interior remain naturally comfortable with limited direct afternoon sun. A beautifully maintained tile roof, paver driveway, and charming tropical courtyard create an inviting first impression. Step inside and your attention is immediately drawn beyond the expansive living spaces to sparkling water views and the spectacular screened lanai, where a sport-style pool becomes the centerpiece of everyday living and entertaining. Designed with both comfort and privacy in mind, this thoughtfully planned residence offers two spacious bedroom suites, two-and-a-half baths, and a versatile den. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for owners and guests alike, while the open-concept design creates an effortless flow between the kitchen, dining area, and great room. Triple tray ceilings, crown molding, upgraded lighting, and custom built-ins add timeless character throughout. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, offering abundant upgraded cabinetry with custom pull-out storage, built-in double ovens, generous workspace, and a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the lake—a peaceful setting to begin each morning. Just outside, a propane hookup makes grilling and outdoor dining both convenient and enjoyable. Privately situated at the rear of the home, the owner's retreat embraces the waterfront setting with beautiful lake views, direct access to the lanai, and dual custom walk-in closets. The spacious en-suite bath features separate vanities, a dedicated makeup station, and an expansive wall of mirrors that enhances the light-filled space. Across the home, the guest suite offers its own private bath, creating an ideal retreat for family and friends. The flexible den easily serves as a home office, hobby room, fitness space, or potential third bedroom. Life in Valencia Lakes extends far beyond your front door. Residents enjoy a resort-inspired lifestyle centered around a spectacular 40,000-square-foot clubhouse and 40-acre waterfront recreation complex featuring resort and lap pools, tennis, pickleball, bocce, basketball, a state-of-the-art fitness center, dog park, baseball field, community garden, and RV and boat storage. More than 100 acres of preserved natural landscape provide scenic beauty and abundant wildlife, while hundreds of clubs, social events, and activities foster an active, welcoming community. An on-site café serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, and seasonal specials adds another level of convenience to everyday living. Ideally located with easy access to Tampa, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, championship golf, shopping, dining, and Tampa International Airport, this exceptional home offers far more than a place to live—it offers one of Valencia Lakes' premier waterfront settings, a thoughtfully designed floor plan, and the opportunity to enjoy one of Florida's most sought-after 55+ resort communities.
