Welcome to a home that’s built for living — and made for entertaining. Just one mile from Lake Weir and Carney Island Park, this 2020 custom-built retreat offers the best of both worlds: easy lake access without the lakefront price tag. Tucked behind a private gate on 0.70 acres, this property blends freedom, flexibility, and location — no HOA, no CDD, and no flood zone. Step inside and you’ll feel it right away: an oversized living room with soaring vaulted ceilings and an open concept design that’s perfect for gatherings. The chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece — featuring a six-burner gas stove, high-end stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a large center island, and a huge walk-in pantry. Whether it’s Sunday brunch with friends or a holiday dinner with family, this kitchen was made to impress. The primary suite is your personal retreat, offering a spa-inspired bathroom with a walk-in shower, dual sinks, and generous closet space. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, hobbies, or a home office. Step outside and the Florida lifestyle unfolds. An extended lanai under a birdcage sets the stage for year-round entertaining, featuring a relaxing spa and gazebo surrounded by a spacious backyard. There’s plenty of room to add a pool, park your RV or boat, or simply enjoy the quiet privacy of your own space. A dedicated carport with a boat/toy cover, oversized garage with attic ladder, and workshop space make this property as functional as it is beautiful.
