Many listings claim to "show like a model," but this one truly does. METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED with obvious pride of ownership, every detail of this stunning home has been THOUGHTFULLY UPGRADED and beautifully curated. In fact, many buyers will assume the home is professionally staged-it isn't. This is simply how the current owners, with impeccable taste and attention to detail, have chosen to live. Adding to the home's appeal is the EXTENDED BRICK-PAVER LANAI featuring an OUTDOOR KITCHEN, multiple entertaining areas, and a breathtaking UNOBSTRUCTED POND VIEW that creates the perfect backdrop for relaxing Florida living. Located within the GATED ESPLANADE community in New Tampa, this exceptional home offers outstanding curb appeal with a brick-paver driveway and entryway, attractive TILE ROOF, and MAINTENANCE-FREE living with LAWN CARE and EXTERIOR PAINTING included in the HOA. Inside, the popular GREAT ROOM FLOOR PLAN provides an open, inviting layout with 3 BEDROOMS plus a versatile FLEX ROOM behind French doors. Currently used as an office, this flexible space could easily serve as a craft room, fitness area, media room, reading retreat, or additional sitting room. The KITCHEN is both beautiful and functional, featuring a GAS STOVE, BREAKFAST BAR with ample seating, PULL-OUT CABINET SHELVING, PANTRY WITH CUSTOM WOOD SHELVING, ABUNDANT COUNTER SPACE, and an adjoining dining area perfect for everyday meals or entertaining guests. Throughout the home you'll find PLANTATION SHUTTERS on every window, elegant TRAY CEILINGS in the great room, primary suite, and flex room, 5¼-INCH BASEBOARDS, CROWN MOLDING, LAMINATE FLOORING, and custom wood shelving in every closet. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a tray ceiling, TRANQUIL POND VIEWS, and a LUXURIOUS ENSUITE BATH with DUAL SINKS and a SHOWER featuring a RAIN-HEAD FIXTURE. The CUSTOM WALK-IN CLOSET is thoughtfully divided into two separate sides, providing organized personal space and storage for each homeowner. Even the LAUNDRY ROOM has been UPGRADED with a utility SINK, folding area, and custom wood shelving. Beyond the home itself, residents enjoy access to an IMPRESSIVE AMENITY CENTER featuring a clubhouse, resort-style pool, dog park, playground pickleball and tennis courts-all with NO CDD fees.
