About this home

Resort-style living in the gated villa section that has its own clubhouse, pool, fitness center, pickleball, bocce ball & social events for VILLA OWNERS ONLY! AND you DO HAVE access to the main clubhouse with another fitness center, pool, pickleball, basketball court & playground! Did I mention IMPACT WINDOWS & SLIDERS that provide hurricane protection and superior energy efficiency eliminating the need for shutters providing both peace of mind and reduced utility costs! This exceptional and extra spacious pie-shaped lot has a tranquil pond and preserve view! The screened lanai provides the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening gatherings offering peaceful water views and bird watching! TAKE NOTE: This lanai is NOT next to another lanai providing MORE PRIVACY than most. The villa to the right is an Emerald model, so NO NEIGHBORING LANAI next to this one!

HOA FEES INCLUDE LAWN/LANDSCAPING CARE YEAR ROUND! CDD fees already calculated into the tax bill amount as seen.
