Perfectly positioned on an oversized homesite, this beautifully enhanced residence delivers elegance, comfort, and convenience in a setting designed for an elevated lifestyle.

From the moment you arrive, the artfully color-coated driveway, mature landscaping, and manicured grounds create striking curb appeal. An irrigation system keeps the grounds lush year-round, while a fully paid bond (NO CDD fee!) adds long-term value and peace of mind.

The gourmet kitchen is both beautiful and functional, featuring granite countertops, maple and silk/bisque cabinetry, and a gas range—ideal for anyone who loves to cook or entertain. Every detail has been carefully selected to balance style with everyday livability.

Beyond the main living areas, you’ll find a den/study ideal for reading, working, or quiet reflection, along with a dedicated hobby room that opens the door to creativity, organization, or additional flex space. Whether hosting guests or enjoying a peaceful evening in, this home adapts effortlessly to every season of life.

What truly sets this residence apart is its location. Lakeshore Cottages is known for its charming homes wrapped in spacious porches found nowhere else in the community, surrounded by lush landscaping and timeless architecture.
