One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. In the noted Neal Signature community of Aria in North Venice, this expansive three-bedroom plus den, 2.5-bath and three-vehicle garage residence has an excellent level of construction and a gracious, open accommodative design. Coming from a garden walkway and entering through the foyer one finds a great room with a 12-foot height ceiling, surrounded by plantation-shuttered windows and tall sliding glass doors which pocket and open to a screened area holding the large, heated, saltwater pool, spa and patio. The great room visually brings an enchanting expanse of outdoor light inside. The patio has a large gas-fed Weber grill and provides extensive open-air dining and living space. In the great room is a dining area, seating area, and a fully functional gourmet kitchen with pantries, custom pendant lamps over an island, branded stainless steel appliances and 42-inch-high wood cabinets. The kitchen looks upon the seating area and a shiplap wall with entertainment capabilities. Quartz countertops are in the kitchen as well as the baths. Off the great room is a generously sized hardwood floored den or office. The luxurious primary bedroom has an en-suite bath with walk-in closets, each with functional built-in features. The bath also has a tile, custom-glass enclosed, shower, soaking tub, dual sinks and extensive lighting features. The home’s two other bedrooms are large, each with full-sized closets and with bathroom access. The laundry room with a washer and dryer is enhanced with generously sized cabinetry, sink and quartz countertop. Surrounding the screened patio and pool, and in the garden, are tropical plantings which lend to the tranquility of this exceptional residence. Exiting the large garage, which provides many custom built-in storage cabinets, one can quickly and conveniently reach the area’s beautiful beaches, sports facilities, shopping, dining and entertainment locations.
