$499,000

Waterfront in Esplanade Golf & Country Club for under $500K. No other home on the water in this community is listed within $300,000 of this price. This lakefront Roma model adds an extended paver lanai, Flood Zone X, and no golf deed. Golf is pay-to-play, so you get the full resort lifestyle without mandatory golf dues. Taylor Morrison built this 2-bedroom PLUS private study/flex space, 2-bath home in 2014, and it has been meticulously maintained: a new Trane A/C (2025), new water heater (2023), exterior paint (2021), plantation shutters throughout, fresh interior paint, and tile floors cleaned, regrouted, and sealed. The lake is the view from the great room and the primary suite. Sliders open to an extended screened lanai with pavers and new lighting, looking straight across the water. Remote-controlled storm shades and accordion shutters make hurricane prep a matter of minutes. The kitchen features 42-inch maple cabinets with crown molding, pull-out shelves, under-cabinet lighting, granite counters, stainless appliances including a gas range, and a breakfast bar. The primary suite offers a bay window on the water, plantation shutters, an Elfa custom walk-in closet, dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a private water closet. The guest room has its own Elfa closet. Behind French doors, the private study/den features a small corner of built-in shelving and offers flexible space for a home office, or it can easily convert to a third bedroom with the addition of a Murphy bed. A laundry room with sink and cabinets, gutters, and a 2-car garage with overhead storage complete the home. Lawn care is covered by the HOA, and furnishings are available separately. Esplanade includes an 18-hole championship course, resort pools, two fitness centers, pickleball, tennis, bocce, a spa and salon, dog parks, a lifestyle director, and dining at the Barrel House and Bahama Bar. You're minutes from Lakewood Ranch Main Street, Waterside, UTC, I-75, and SRQ, with Gulf beaches a short drive away.
