Luxury sailboat-access waterfront playground home in South Gulf Cove! If you like to play outside, on the water or off, this property is for you. But first let's explore the beautiful DM Dean open floor plan home behind that wrought iron front porch gate. Walk in the double door entrance and you'll encounter a large living room with a high tray ceiling, and the 90-degree sliders that bring the outdoors into your living area. In the granite/stainless kitchen you will find a wrap around breakfast bar, and plenty of counters and cabinet storage. The nearby laundry room has an additional pantry. Beyond the kitchen is a semi-separated space for a large dining room with two-sided views of the pool lanai and the peaceful waterfront. Near the front door is a den with a closet (could be a 4th bedroom). The owner's suite is quite large with king sized bedroom furniture, two walk-in closets, and the elegant ensuite bath has separate sinks, a center bath tub, and a large walk-through shower. Disappearing sliders allow the owner's suite direct access to the pool lanai. The other two bedrooms, on the other side of the house, are separated from each other. To the right of the kitchen is a guest room with a king sized bed, complete with an ensuite bathroom and walk-in shower. To the left of the kitchen is a young girl's pink bedroom with a bunk bed, a large closet and the central guest bathroom right next door. Florida homes generally have storage challenges, but that has been addressed with 20 linear feet of new cabinets installed in the 3 car garage as well as an over-door storage shelf. Challenge solved! This home's interior is grand scale with high ceilings, solid core interior doors, crown moulding, porcelain tile throughout, granite counters, and oversized windows everywhere. But there's so much more to enjoy outdoors! The saltwater pool and spa has beautiful glass tiles, new pump and heater, and a wide water view of intersecting canals. Walk through the additional screened lanai down paver walkways through the lush yard to the new 90' x 10' dock. Plenty of room to sit and enjoy this waterfront paradise, complete with an under-dock artificial reef and fish lights. Two covered boat lifts (6k and 10k) provide the perfect launching point directly out to the neighborhood lagoon, without a bridge in sight. The lock system protects our waterways from tides and storm surges and provides access to the Sound, Rivers, and the Gulf! But wait... when you arrived did you notice the beautiful playground across the street? That corner lot is included with this property and has been elegantly fenced, fully landscaped with curbed beds, sod, palm trees, and electricity & water for easy care. Currently there are multiple areas of amazing playground structures. Jungle gym not quite what you're looking for? Replace a swing set with a putting green, or chairs around a fire pit, or add hammocks under the trees. Transform this tropical park easily around the landscaped areas or keep it as is! This waterfront paradise has it all; come see it for yourself! This home is being sold furnished. Check out the Special Features List for more details.
