Let me take this opportunity to introduce you to the outstanding community of Lakewood National Golf and Country Club. This Country Club is on par with some of the best golf communities both locally and nationally. No pun intended. This amazing true 3 bedroom and 2 full bathroom terrace condominium is situated on the third floor with no one living above you and easily accessible by stairs or elevator. As you enter this end unit you will be impressed by the open floor plan which shows light and bright. But you will be especially drawn to the panoramic views of golf course and water as seen from the screened lanai. Tastefully decorated in the coastal style this condo comes with furnishings but does not include the interesting artwork which could be negotiable. The beautiful white kitchen contrasts nicely with the offset grey ceramic tile which flows through the foyer to the kitchen and living and dining areas. Stainless steel appliances and white quartz counter tops with a grey fleck accent the decor to a tee. The island has a breakfast bar for those quick meals. The primary bedroom offers two walk in closets. Crown molding is a nice touch throughout except for the 2 guest bedrooms. You have your own storage room for bikes and more only steps from the front door. Inside utility room with full size washer and dryer is always a plus. Building 16 was completed in 2022 so almost new! Lakewood National is part of the #1 master planned community of Lakewood Ranch and boasts endless amenities. To start you have two 18 hole championship golf courses designed by the renown Arnold Palmer. It is a dream come true for the ardent golfer with many challenging holes to test your golf skills. The condo overlooks the 15th hole of the Piper course. Membership is included in the Master HOA fee. For those who prefer other sports there are eight lighted Har-Tru tennis courts, four pickle ball courts and two Har-Tru bocce courts. In addition there is a state of the art fitness center open 24 hours with member ID. While the Terrace condos have their own swimming pool there is also a spectacular waterfall resort style pool at the clubhouse which you and your guests can enjoy. If you just want to relax and be doted on there is a full service spa to immerse yourself. For the food enthusiast there are many options. From the pool side Tiki bar to the more formal dining room in the newly opened clubhouse you will find plenty to wet your appetite. It is only a short drive to the Lakewood Ranch Main Street where more quality restaurants and shops abound. Lakewood National is a gated community with a 24 hour guard for security. School district is top rated and there is easy access to I-75. Don't forget the world renown beaches that Sarasota and Bradenton offer including the #1 Siesta Key beach with it's soft white quartz sand. An easy drive takes you to all the performing arts venue which our area is famous for! This condo would make a perfect winter retreat, full time residence or even a investment option. There are many more things we could talk about but why not take the plunge and start living the Florida lifestyle today and discover all the area has to offer!
