Come see this beautiful 4 beds/2 baths home in a prime water access location, nested on expansive .5 acres in Osprey! Upon entrance, be captivated by the sophistication of the blend of modern updates with the home's original character. A neutral palette provides an ideal backdrop for decor and coordinates beautifully with flooring, countertops, and furnishings. Sun-drenched and airy, the combination of open-floor concept, large windows, and exquisite floor plan enwrapped around the lanai create an abundance of natural light. You'll enjoy spending time in the elegantly upgraded kitchen (2014) with an updated appliance package, wood cabinets, and a closet pantry. Soft-close cherry wood cabinetry is beautifully matched with River Bordeaux granite countertops for sleek finishes accentuated by recessed and pendant lighting. From the spacious living and family rooms, sliding doors lead onto the large lanai and to the 7-foot deep solar-heated pool which was recently re-screened and boasts freshly installed rubber decking all around. The master bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom and sliding doors that also open onto the lanai. The master bathroom was remodeled in 2010 and showcases wood cabinets, two large single vanities, and a walk-in shower. From the en-suite bathroom, access the full walk-in closet. Optimal privacy for both masters and their guests is accommodated by a split bedroom floor plan, with the rest of the three bedrooms each featuring large built-in closets of their own. The second recently renovated bathroom with a walk-in shower, cabinets, and a single vanity, is positioned between bedrooms 2 and 3, while bedroom 4 is currently being used as an office. Additional interior features include a laundry room, lots of closets for storage, wood parquet, carpet and tile floorings, clear hurricane shutters, motorized Hunter Douglas blinds, and an updated electric panel with an outlet on the lanai for the generator (2020).
