Located on the ninth hole of the Allamanda championship course at the Cane Garden CC, this STRETCHED *Gardenia* with a BRAND NEW ROOF is sure to please! Coming through the leaded glass entryway, you'll immediately feel the openness of this home, due to the vaulted ceilings and the *hideaway* sliding doors that open to the expanded, north-facing lanai and the golf course beyond. To your right is a gourmet kitchen which features 42* wall cabinets, recently upgraded stainless steel appliances (which include a microwave that doubles as a convection oven and an air fryer), soft-closing cabinet doors and drawers, enhanced lighting, and a spacious eat-in space with double windows to let in that cheerful morning sun. The expansive living and dining rooms open to the enlarged lanai which is TWELVE feet deep and provides room for a sitting area AND a picnic table for entertaining. The master bedroom is tucked away to the right rear of the home and features sliding doors to the lanai, dual walk-in closets and a large shower with the optional seat installed. The guest bedrooms are located behind a pocket door (for extra guest privacy). The front of the home has been stretched, enlarging the guest bath, the kitchen and the garage. Other upgrades in this lovely home include 5 and 7-inch crown molding throughout, two solar tubes, all solid wood interior doors (including 4 pocket doors), upgraded ceiling fans, an attic solar fan, raised vanity cabinets in the master and 2016 water heater and HVAC. Last but certainly not least -- An oversized double garage and golf cart garage (18 feet deep - room enough for two carts!) with workshop space, insulated garage doors, and attic stairs leading to engineered trusses in the attic which provide exceptional storage space. All of this a stone's throw from the Cane Garden CC and restaurant, and located between Lake Sumter landing and Brownwood. The location, the look and the lifestyle are all yours in this lovely home.
