PRICE IMPROVED! DON’T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY! Welcome to this BEAUTIFUL and spacious 3 BEDROOM, 2 BATH LAKEFRONT POOL HOME in the highly desirable WATERFORD GOLF COMMUNITY, offering stunning water views from nearly every room.

Thoughtfully designed with quality construction, extensive updates, and a unique floor plan, this exceptional home offers comfort, privacy, flexibility, and the best of Florida living. From the moment you arrive, the impressive double-door entry and beautiful curb appeal set the tone. Inside, soaring vaulted cathedral ceilings and an abundance of natural light create a bright and inviting atmosphere.

The spacious living and dining areas flow seamlessly together, while generously sized rooms and a well-designed split-bedroom floor plan provide excellent privacy and functionality. BEAUTIFUL LARGE-FORMAT SPANISH PORCELAIN TILE runs throughout the home, complemented by wide baseboards, recessed lighting, and interior sliding doors that enhance the bright, airy feel and provide versatile living space options. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home and a standout feature, featuring STUNNING WATERFALL SOLID-STONE COUNTERTOPS, CUSTOM CABINETRY, abundant storage, and thoughtful upgrades throughout.

The spacious eat-in kitchen overlooks the sparkling pool and tranquil lake, creating a beautiful setting for everyday dining. A breakfast bar and matching stone bar table provide convenient pool access, making entertaining effortless and seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.

An adjoining large bedroom provides exceptional flexibility and can be used as a private sitting room, home office, den, nursery, or additional sleeping space, or easily closed off to function as a separate bedroom. On the opposite side of the home, the LARGE THIRD BEDROOM offers a second private PRIMARY-STYLE RETREAT with generous space and closet storage, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or anyone wanting their own private space.

This thoughtful layout provides the feel and flexibility of TWO SEPARATE PRIMARY AREAS while maintaining the convenience of a three-bedroom home.
