Situated on a large corner lot within the gated Eastlake community, this extensively updated home provides unobstructed lake views, a side-entry two-car garage, and a relaxed neighborhood setting with low HOA dues. The open and functional floor plan features soaring 12-foot ceilings in the main living areas, abundant natural light, and electric roller shades that provide privacy at the touch of a button. The custom kitchen was thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring high-quality cabinetry, an oversized quartz island, induction cooktop, KitchenAid appliances, Delta Pot filler, full-extension pantry storage, and layered accent lighting. Lighting continues throughout the home with adjustable gallery and art lighting that enhances both function and atmosphere. Additional interior highlights include a custom office that easily doubles as a guest room, a fully upgraded laundry room with ceiling-height cabinetry, and generously sized bedrooms, including a guest suite with direct access to the pool area. Recent improvements include a 2022 HVAC system with transferable warranty, 2024 blown-in attic insulation, whole-home surge protection, and integrated lighting and climate features throughout. Outdoor living is equally well considered, with a spacious paver patio, screened lanai, temperature-controlled in-ground pool and swim spa, and professionally landscaped grounds accented by color-changing LED lighting. The primary suite serves as a private retreat with a soaking tub, oversized shower, illuminated mirrors, ambient lighting, and custom walk-in closets. Thoughtful upgrades extend throughout the home, reflecting careful attention to quality, comfort, and long-term livability.
