This magnificent custom estate is situated on the most incredible double pond view lot in Rye Wilderness! Spanish style architecture and a charming front porch with arches sets the stage for this spacious 2-story home. Enter to a dramatic staircase with Juliet balcony and sight-lines through to the pool & preserve views. The formal living and dining rooms are spacious & elegant and feature plantation shutters and a double-arched pass-through for entertaining. The first floor has beautiful easy-care wood-look tile plank flooring throughout, and the high ceilings allow for lots of light. The Kitchen is well-equipped with top of the line GE stainless steel appliances, granite counters, double ovens and more gleaming white cabinets than you could ever need! The design includes both an island and an eat-in dinette area with bill-paying desk AND a butler's pantry just off the family room! Double-arches pass through to the family room and lead to the wall of sliding doors that access the gorgeous pool and lanai. The first of the five bedrooms is an en-suite downstairs, making this a multi-generational home. The additional four bedrooms and a bonus room are upstairs, all with wood flooring. The owner's retreat is a relaxing haven: the spacious bedroom features a tray ceiling, a spa bath with relaxing soaker tub and walk-in shower, and the most beautiful view from the upstairs balcony overlooking the pool, two ponds, and preserve. This special feature is exclusive to this home, as it is no longer available from the builder! Outside, the pavered lanai is massive, with room for multiple seating areas that overlook the inviting heated saltwater pool & spa with sun shelf and water features! The double pond and preserve views are spectacular and the spacious lot is lushly landscaped with tropical foliage. The home also features a 3-car side-entry garage, double paned windows with plantation shutters, and is in a fantastic location with easy access to Tampa, St. Pete, Lakewood Ranch & Sarasota. Rye Wilderness is known for its generous lot sizes, proximity to great schools, quality-built homes, and offers amenities such as sports courts and a playground. It's only a short drive to great shopping, dining, entertainment, and fabulous Gulf Beaches!
