About This Home

Tucked into one of the most desirable pockets of Calusa Trace, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home sits on a rare .38-acre conservation lot on a quiet dead-end street with wide roads and no through traffic—offering space, privacy, and unbeatable curb appeal.

The layout is one of the most functional you’ll find, with formal living and dining rooms up front, an enclosed home office with plantation shutters, and an open-concept kitchen and family room that overlook the serene backyard. The kitchen features a center island, breakfast nook, and easy access to the screened-in patio—perfect for outdoor entertaining. The spacious primary suite includes dual closets (one with a custom California Closet system), a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths are tucked on the other side of the home for ideal separation.

You’ll also love the 3-car garage, low HOA, no CDD, and proximity to top-rated schools (Schwarzkopf, Martinez, and Steinbrenner). Just minutes from the Veterans Expressway, shops, restaurants, and parks—this is a rare chance to own one of the best lots in Calusa Trace. Don’t miss it!
