530 Habitat Blvd., Osprey, FL 34229

This enchanting Lee Wetherington-built home in the maintenance-free community of Willowbend enjoys high-speed internet, cable television, yard maintenance, as well as community pool, spa, fitness center, pickleball court and playground included in the low HOA fees. Wrap yourself in luxury in a sophisticated and spacious home boasting high tray ceilings, dramatic arches, abundant crown molding and plantation shutters. The brilliantly designed gourmet kitchen has wood cabinetry, granite and gas range, with all stainless appliances new in 2013. Tile on diagonal, built-in buffet in dining, completely remodeled bathrooms (the master in granite, the other two in quartz with walk-in showers), there is a built in office in the fourth bedroom, and an extended 23 x 23 garage. Arriving to the residence located on a cul-de-sac lot with wraparound water views, you will find amazing landscaping, completely under-lit, defining the elegant character of the home. On a practical note, there is newer air conditioning, 200 amp whole-house, back-up generator, tankless hot water, exterior paint and carpet. Two covered patios with a built-in new gas grill provide tempting views of a tranquil lake across your sparkling pool. All this, and minutes to white sand beaches, Pine View School, as well as downtown Sarasota and Venice. Toss aside notions of new construction, this one is better than new.
