Welcome to Sarasota's most amenity-rich resort community, Esplanade on Palmer Ranch. This rare 4-bedroom Lazio model home with a heated pool and spa, completed in 2021, lives large on a private and premium preserve lot, with wide and unobstructed views overlooking the natural wetlands and Oscar Scherer Park, just beyond your extended lanai. On cool, quiet Florida evenings, you will gather around the outdoor gas fireplace, reflecting on another wonderful day & decide what you're going to be making for dinner in your fabulous, upgraded kitchen with gleaming quartz countertops, built-in GE Monogram appliances, including 6-burner gas cooktop with stainless steel hood, double ovens and beverage center. This property has space, whether you work from home or need your own place to explore your creative side; currently, the front guest bedroom with an extended bay window is used as an art studio with terrific light. Two other guest bedrooms await those friends and family who will absolutely be heading down when they hear you've finally bought a home here. Your extended owners' suite is a relaxing respite in the back of the home with long views of the preserve. You finally got the bathroom of your dreams with a garden tub, oversized frameless glass shower, two-level quartz vanities with double sinks & oil rubbed bronze fixtures, plus an enormous built-in custom closet. In addition to a large family room and dining room which is close to the open kitchen, there is a generous den, study or media room with pocket doors. Other upgrades include impact (hurricane) windows throughout, tankless water heater, additional tandem parking in the garage for your golf cart or a workshop or added storage, crown molding, wood-look floor tile, oil-rubbed bronze fixtures, tray ceiling in the family room and owners' suite, prep sink and touchless kitchen faucet with water purifier + much more. Don't forget you are in The Esplanade, so remember to enjoy the community resort-style pool, state-of-the-art fitness center with classes, the Bahama Bar and Grill, fire pit, 3 dog parks, pickleball, tennis, bocce ball court, a private entrance to The Legacy Trail and even an activities director who is on-site in the community clubhouse. There's even a children's splash pad (mini water park), resistance pool and giant chess board. Close to shopping, hospitals, dining and I-75. Only 14 miles to the heart of downtown Sarasota. 4.5 miles to Casey Key Fish House, 9.5 miles to the powder sands of Siesta Key Beach and 8 miles to Nokomis Beach.
