Soaring ceilings accentuate the airiness of this waterfront home, in a great community with natural gas, playground, community pool! Enjoy long water views every day. Is this house 3 bedrooms and a den? Or 4 bedrooms? Both are true! The 4th bedroom is currently being used as an artist's studio. To the front of the house are a "formal" dining and living room (currently being used as a music room), with a separate family room and open plan kitchen. A butler's pantry, with storage and dry bar, separate the kitchen from the front rooms. There is also room for a wine refrigerator! The kitchen has TONS of maple cabinets for storage and plenty of counter space for meal preparation and informal buffets; it is also pre-plumbed for a gas range. There is terrific flow throughout the house and out onto the spacious lanai, with such a lovely, broad lake view. The master suite naturally faces such an enchanting view, and has a large, accommodating bathroom and walk in closet. The other two bedrooms are back, with their own shared bathroom with two sinks in the vanity. The indoor laundry room leads to the garage, with plenty of room for your vehicles.
