If you have been searching for a home in an amenity-rich resort community but have been finding it difficult to find the privacy you are looking for, then this is your lucky day! This custom home backs up to protected preserve land and offers private views from almost every window in the house! When you walk in the front door you will be immediately impressed by the expansive 10 foot ceilings that give the open floorplan an amazing sense of space throughout the great room and dining area. Step further into the home and you will discover a kitchen that even the most experienced chef would be proud to call their own. Featuring an enormous island this kitchen offers an incredible amount of counterspace with gorgeous quartz counters, an abundance of cabinets, upgraded gas range, huge pantry with custom shelving, and even a vegetable sink to help make preparing meals a breeze. Large sliding glass doors invite you to walk out on to the extended lanai where you will find over 400 square feet of covered outdoor living space overlooking the preserve. A custom-built outdoor kitchen has been designed to blend into the natural landscape with natural stackstone, beverage refrigerator, sink, and gas grill with vent. Back inside you will find a triple split bedroom plan that offers a primary suite with a large bay window area, en-suite bath with huge shower, and an extra-large walk-in closet that not only features built-in shelving, but also includes an 8 foot high revolving tower with adjustable shelves that can fit 100 pairs of shoes (or anything you choose). 2 more bedrooms also include custom closets, and one of them is en-suite with private bath. Other upgrades in this home include upgraded tile floors throughout (no carpet), crown molding throughout, and epoxy floors in the garage which has a tandem parking area for a small car. Just outside your door is the community boardwalk which winds through the lush preserve and leads to a peaceful gazebo overlooking Lake Bellacina. Bellacina by Casey Key offers a first-class amenity complex with fitness center, community gathering room, resort-style pool, hot tub, bocce ball, har-tru tennis court, fire pit and 4 pickleball courts. There is also a social coordinator on staff to make sure the community calendar is always full of exciting options so you will never run out of things to do. As an added bonus Bellacina is one of the few communities in Sarasota County to offer private gated access to the Legacy Trail which runs 18.5 miles from the Venice Train Station all the way up to Payne Park in downtown Sarasota.
