Virtually Staged. Space, style and a beautiful waterfront setting come together in this nearly new 2024 M/I Homes Juniper model in Sweetwater at Lakewood Ranch. With over 3,600 square feet under air, this impressive home offers four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a private first-floor primary suite, dedicated office, oversized upstairs loft and an expansive
three-car garage, all complemented by hurricane-impact windows and sliding glass doors throughout, a fully fenced backyard and peaceful pond views. A dramatic two-story entry welcomes you into a bright, open floor plan featuring luxury vinyl flooring throughout the main living areas, plantation shutters on every window and abundance of natural light.
Thoughtfully designed for everyday living and entertaining, the first floor includes a dedicated office, powder bath, laundry room and spacious primary suite. The heart of the home is the stunning open-concept kitchen featuring an oversized center island, natural gas cooktop with modern vent hood, abundant cabinetry and counter space, new backsplash and a large walk-in pantry.
The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, where large hurricane-impact sliding glass doors showcase the pond view and extend the living space outdoors. Privately on the first floor, the oversized primary suite features a tray ceiling, luxury vinyl flooring, multiple windows and a large walk-in closet.
The spa-inspired en suite is beautifully appointed with an expansive dual-sink vanity, soaking tub and oversized frameless glass walk-in shower with floor-to-ceiling tile. Upstairs, the large loft provides a second living or entertainment space and includes a convenient built-in workstation.
Three additional bedrooms offer plenty of room for family and guests, with carpet limited to the bedrooms for added comfort. One secondary bedroom features its own private en suite with an upgraded tiled shower, while an additional full guest bath offers dual vanities and an upgraded tub/shower surround.
Go outside through the hurricane-impact sliders to the extended covered paver lanai and enjoy expansive pond views from the fully fenced backyard. With plenty of room for outdoor dining, lounging, entertaining or simply enjoying Florida weather, this outdoor space is an extension of the home rather than an afterthought.
Additional highlights include a concrete tile roof, two five-ton Carrier HVAC systems, hurricane-impact protection throughout, and an exceptionally spacious three-car garage with finished flooring and an extended rear area providing valuable additional space for storage, a workshop, hobbies or recreational equipment.
Sweetwater residents enjoy an impressive lineup of resort-style amenities including a clubhouse, resort pool, cafe, fitness center, playgrounds, pickleball courts, basketball court, pump track, festival lawn and additional recreational spaces. Conveniently near Lakewood Ranch shopping, dining, parks, schools and entertainment, this nearly new home combines exceptional square footage, a versatile floor plan, abundant storage and peaceful waterfront living in one of Lakewood Ranch's sought-after newer communities.
