Life in Riverwood is about more than a home, it is about the lifestyle you've been waiting for. This three bedroom, two bathroom waterfront residence in the Bay Ridge section combines timeless design with thoughtful updates, creating a space where everyday living feels like a retreat. From the moment you arrive, the side-entry garage, manicured landscaping, architectural columns, and arched windows set the tone for curb appeal with classic Florida charm. Many home updates will provide peace of mind, including a 2025 A/C system with transferable warranty, a 2024 tile roof, refreshed landscaping, 2024 exterior trim paint, a hurricane-rated garage door, and a phantom retractable screen at the entry. Step inside and enjoy wide-open views of the pool and pond beyond through the great room's triple sliders. Just off this space is a flexible bonus room, perfect for a home office, hobby space, or quiet retreat. The kitchen blends style with function with quartz countertops, a gold farmhouse sink, soft-close cabinetry with glass accents, oversized gold pulls, under and over cabinet lighting, a walk-in pantry, and a newer LG glass-front refrigerator. A breakfast bar creates a casual gathering spot, while both the formal dining room and the sunny nook offer beautiful waterfront views. The private primary suite is set apart from the guest bedrooms and features vaulted ceilings, sliding doors that open directly to the lanai, a custom walk-in closet, and a spa-like ensuite. The bath includes dual vanities with vessel sinks, granite countertops, and a walk-in shower with a multi-head system. Guests will appreciate the two bedrooms connected by a Jack and Jill bath with a step-in shower and a hammered steel-style sink that adds a designer touch. An interior laundry room with built-in cabinetry ensures convenience and extra storage. Florida living is meant to be enjoyed outdoors, and this home delivers with a resurfaced deck and heated saltwater pool and spa. Panoramic screening keeps the views open while providing the perfect backdrop for entertaining or relaxing. Evenings here feel effortless, whether you are hosting friends or unwinding poolside after a day on the golf course or courts. Additional features throughout the home include new LVP and tile flooring, new baseboards, designer lighting, a whole-house water filtration system, electric roll-down Storm Smart hurricane shutter for the lanai, hurricane shutter for the front door, Kevlar protection for all windows, and an epoxy-coated garage floor.
