Perfectly positioned on an oversized ¼-acre waterfront homesite within the gated community of Sweetwater at Lakewood Ranch, this 2023 Crystal floor plan has been transformed far beyond builder grade with over $210,000 in custom and structural enhancements, creating a residence that rivals luxury custom homes. Offering three bedrooms, three full baths, a private office and an expansive open-concept design, every space was thoughtfully curated with timeless finishes, exceptional functionality and elevated craftsmanship. The heart of the home is a stunning designer kitchen that immediately commands attention. Anchored by a dramatic Cambria Southport quartz waterfall island, the space showcases Level 4 custom Timberlake cabinetry, premium Profile stainless gas appliances, a farmhouse apron sink, a designer vertical tile backsplash and an abundant workspace that effortlessly blends beauty with everyday functionality. The oversized island overlooks an impressive great room where custom built-ins, a sleek linear fireplace, soaring tray ceilings and expansive sliding glass doors create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Luxury continues throughout with premium Level 6 Bainbridge 8-by-48-inch tile flooring flowing continuously through the primary living areas, office, utility room and owner’s suite without unsightly transition strips. The result is a clean, sophisticated aesthetic rarely found in new construction. The primary suite is a private retreat featuring tranquil water views, a custom built-in workspace and a spa-inspired bath designed with floor-to-ceiling Shaw Tranquility Matte (Golden Calacata) tile, river rock shower flooring, dual vanities, a quartz bench and a frameless matte black glass enclosure. A secondary en-suite bedroom offers the same elevated level of finish, making it ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Go outside to your 29-foot extended covered lanai, where disappearing 8-foot-tall sliders create true indoor-outdoor living. The upgraded 4-foot privacy wall is already pre-plumbed and pre-wired for the ultimate outdoor kitchen, including dedicated gas, hot and cold water, drain and electrical. This space is ready to become an incredible entertaining destination. An additional gas line has already been installed for a future fire pit, while the oversized backyard offers endless room for a custom pool without sacrificing green space. Practical luxury is equally impressive. The oversized garage includes a rare 4-foot extension, dual 220V outlets (50-amp and 40-amp) for electric vehicle charging or workshop equipment and a 200-amp generator transfer switch, providing both convenience and peace of mind. Every detail throughout this home reflects intentional design, from the custom drop zone and upgraded finishes to the premium structural enhancements that simply cannot be replicated at this price point today. Beyond the home itself, SweetWater delivers a true resort lifestyle. Residents enjoy a beautifully appointed clubhouse, modern fitness center, resort-style pool, pickleball and basketball courts, outdoor entertainment spaces with grills and a fireplace, plus a newly constructed sand volleyball court, all thoughtfully designed to encourage recreation, relaxation and connection within the community.

This 2024 Maxwell Elite residence offers 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms on a premier, oversized lot in The Isles — the pinnacle of refined luxury living. Masterfully curated, the owners selected nearly every available upgrade, resulting in a home that feels both grand and effortlessly livable. Custom entry doors open to a striking foyer with soaring ceilings, flowing seamlessly into an expansive open-concept great room and chef's kitchen finished with top-tier appointments, including quartz countertops. A bespoke living-room built-in with fireplace anchors the space, while dramatic 10-foot, 90-degree hurricane-impact sliders dissolve the line between indoor and outdoor living. The home is prewired throughout for smart shades, offering the new owner an easy path to automated convenience. The outdoor experience is equally impressive: an extended covered lanai with a gorgeous pool and spa — added in August 2025 — overlooks one of the best water views in the neighborhood. The outdoor kitchen was enhanced after closing with a marble-topped built-in BBQ, along with added backsplash and cabinets, complementing the full cabana bath and heavy-duty lanai cage to create an entertainer's sanctuary built for year-round enjoyment. The extended primary suite occupies its own private wing, featuring custom ceiling and tile treatments, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with rain shower. Private 8-foot pocket sliders open directly to the lanai, adding to the suite's resort-like ambiance. New luxury plank flooring graces all bedrooms, and stunning new luxury plank stairs add a striking design element throughout the home. Three additional bedrooms are all en-suite for exceptional guest privacy, while a sophisticated office and an upstairs bonus room — designed for easy conversion into an additional en-suite bedroom — provide versatility and future flexibility. An upgraded mudroom, completed after closing, adds further functionality. Notable enhancements include coffered ceilings, solid-core doors, an upgraded stairwell, extra windows for natural light, core-foam masonry with spray-foam insulation throughout — keeping electric bills low — a circulating hot-water system, tankless gas water heater, secondary pantry, EV charger, electric pre-wiring for garage air conditioning, additional exterior garage access, and comprehensive smart-home integration. Post-closing upgrades further elevate the home with custom ceiling treatments, designer built-ins, refined tile work, and a fully realized luxury outdoor living environment. Impeccably finished and never occupied, this home offers a rare opportunity to step into a flawless, resort-caliber residence — where every detail has been thoughtfully executed and nothing remains to be done.

Two generous living areas flow effortlessly into an updated kitchen featuring granite countertops, modern cabinetry, a large pantry, and abundant storage. Each of the three oversized bedrooms includes its own walk-in closet, while the private owner's suite opens directly to the pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A convenient guest bath also provides direct pool access. The backyard is where this home truly separates itself. Centered around an impressive 34' x 16' private swimming pool with a rare 8.5-foot-deep end—a feature no longer permitted under today's Florida building standards—this outdoor retreat is surrounded by an expansive concrete deck and beautifully landscaped grounds. Covered porches, a newer vinyl privacy fence, and pool views from nearly every main living area create an atmosphere that's equally suited for quiet mornings or entertaining family and friends. An oversized two-car garage with attic storage and a driveway accommodating up to six vehicles provide flexibility that's increasingly difficult to find. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in historic Whitfield Estates, this home offers a voluntary HOA of just $30 per year, access to Sarasota Bay Country Club culinary membership eligibility, and is only minutes from Sarasota Bay, downtown Sarasota, SRQ Airport, UTC, and the beaches of Siesta Key, Lido Key, Longboat Key, and Anna Maria Island. Even better, this property has proven itself as a successful Superhost short-term vacation rental, offering exceptional flexibility whether you're searching for a primary residence, seasonal getaway, or income-producing investment. Solid block construction, hurricane insurance discounts, underground utilities, and a nearby neighborhood park complete a home that offers comfort, confidence, and lasting value.

There are homes that simply provide shelter, and then there are homes that quietly collect a century of laughter, celebrations, rainy afternoons, family recipes, favorite novels, and lives well lived. This enchanting Spanish-style residence is one of those rare places—a home with nearly one hundred years of stories etched into its walls, now waiting for someone to begin the next chapter. Sunlight pours through generous windows, wandering from room to room and illuminating warm living spaces that feel both timeless and inviting. Overhead, pressed tin ceiling accents and glowing stained glass light fixtures lend an unmistakable character that modern construction simply cannot recreate. Every detail feels lovingly preserved, every corner inviting you to slow down, breathe deeply, and imagine the countless memories made here before your own. The kitchen and living spaces are designed for lingering conversations, morning coffee, and evenings accompanied by music drifting through open windows. In the bath, a graceful clawfoot tub offers a quiet invitation to unwind, a gentle reminder that some traditions are worth preserving. Beyond the main home, a detached studio ADU opens the door to endless possibilities. Create a private guest retreat, an inspiring artist's studio, a writer's sanctuary, a home office, or generate additional income through a rental opportunity. It is a space limited only by imagination. While rich in history, this remarkable home has also proven its resilience. Having stood steadfast through Florida's recent storms, it continues to offer the enduring craftsmanship and character that have carried it gracefully through nearly a century. Perfectly situated, you're just minutes from the vibrant riverfront and restaurants of Downtown Bradenton, the Village of the Arts, the beautiful Manatee Riverwalk, the historic campus of Manatee High School, and the sugar-white beaches of Anna Maria Island. Sarasota, IMG Academy, Robinson Preserve, Palma Sola Bay, and countless local cafés, galleries, and parks are all within easy reach, creating a lifestyle that balances culture, creativity, and coastal living. This is not merely a property to purchase—it is a place for dreamers, artists, collectors, readers, gardeners, and romantics. A home where books belong on every shelf, paintings lean comfortably against plaster walls, conversations stretch late into the evening, and every sunrise adds another page to a story already nearly a century in the making. Some houses ask to be admired. This one quietly asks to be loved.
