Description

Nestled on a prime corner lot in the sought-after gated community of Harborage on Braden River, this beautiful home at 5511 Whitehead Street blends timeless charm with resort-style living. The property benefits from an ideal east-west wind protecting orientation without a backyard neighbor, providing refreshing afternoon shade for outdoor relaxation and entertaining with the only single-family home with a view of the color changing fountain. Step inside to discover refined interior finishes accentuated by elegant crown molding and archway entrance to DR and TV area, along with a modern kitchen equipped with wood cabinets and brand-new appliances.

Enjoy ultimate peace of mind and energy efficiency with hurricane impact protected windows throughout, paired with major mechanical and structural updates including a relatively new roof, high efficiency AC, and water heater.

Also with central security system, Top/Bottom Levelor blinds, 12 ft sectional sliding glass door.

The community offers an unmatched Florida lifestyle complete with 2 on-site conservation walking trails with direct river access, boat docks, a marina, kayak launch, and fishing pier, as well as a welcoming clubhouse just out the back Lanai door and across the street featuring an exercise room, resort-style swimming pool, and relaxing jacuzzi. Everyday convenience is at your doorstep with Braden River County Park and the recently renovated local public library just around the corner to Aldi’s, (2) Walmart’s, a Walmart Marketplace, Sams Club and (3) Publix Markets , plus seamless proximity within minutes to all the premier amenities of Lakewood Ranch—including vibrant Waterside Place, the popular Farmers' Market, and Lakewood Ranch Main Street for world-class dining, boutiques, and entertainment without the daily summer thunderstorms east of I-75. Commuting and travel are equally effortless, located roughly 10 miles from Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) and around 45 miles north to Tampa International Airport (TPA) and 60 miles south to Punta Gorda (PGD).

Whether you are unwinding in the shaded outdoor space, sitting on the many Gulf Coast beaches close by or taking full advantage of the waterfront and community amenities, this move-in-ready residence offers the complete coastal package!
