Perfectly positioned in the highly sought-after Tara Preserve, this meticulously maintained Lee Wetherington home enjoys tranquil pond and golf course views, creating a calm, retreat-like atmosphere. Step outside to your own private escape, where a sparkling pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, and breathtaking Florida sunsets set the stage for relaxed outdoor living night after night. Inside, abundant windows and triple-pane sliding glass doors flood the home with natural light and open seamlessly to the outdoor living space, creating a bright, open feel ideal for year-round enjoyment. Tile and laminate flooring throughout keep the space clean and cohesive, while the kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, pull-out shelving, under-cabinet lighting, a built-in wine fridge, and a cozy kitchen nook with an aquarium window. The primary suite is quietly positioned, offering a peaceful retreat with tray ceilings, generous closet space, double vanities, a walk-in shower, and serene water and fairway views. The thoughtfully designed floor plan provides excellent separation of space, with the second and third bedrooms privately situated and sharing a full bath, plus a large hall closet for additional storage. The third bedroom, accented with French glass doors, works beautifully as a home office, den, or quiet sitting room. A separate interior laundry room includes a new washer and dryer (2022). Major updates are already complete, including a new tile roof (2023), new A/C (2022), and new water heater (2022). The pool has been resurfaced and upgraded with newer equipment, including a heater, pump, and filter. Additional features include hurricane shutters, surround sound, a fireplace with custom entertainment center, landscape lighting, and a super clean two-car garage. Residents of Tara Preserve enjoy low HOA fees that include cable and internet, along with access to a heated community pool and spa, clubhouse, and pickleball courts. Surrounded by Tara Golf & Country Club and The Preserve Golf Club, with golf membership optional, the community is ideally located near I-75, UTC shopping and dining, Sarasota Airport, downtown Sarasota, Tampa/St. Pete, and the area’s stunning Gulf Coast beaches. CDD is included in the taxes, adding to the overall value and ease of ownership.
