***NEARLY BRAND NEW*** After just two months in this stunning lakeside new construction home, a job transfer is sending the owners to another city, creating a rare opportunity for its next owner! Furniture is negotiable too! ***A HALF AN ACRE*** set along the shores of Blue Heron Lake in The Alcove at Waterside, an intimate, low-density boutique community featuring just 47 luxury single family homes. This beautifully appointed residence tucked far back in a peaceful cul-de-sac was designed around one thing: making the most of where you are. Expansive water views, spectacular sunsets, generous outdoor spaces, and a seamless connection between the indoors and out give this home a distinctly elevated sense of place. Inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings and gorgeous impact-resistant sliding glass doors create a dramatic transition to the lanai, drawing the lake into the main living spaces and filling the home with natural light. The interiors feature a sophisticated luxury aesthetic with neutral finishes, stunning quartz countertops, and a thoughtful layout that feels both polished and effortlessly livable. Three spacious bedrooms and three full baths provide plenty of room for everyday living and overnight guests, while the versatile Bonus Room offers the flexibility to become a refined home office, media lounge, reading room, or private guest retreat. The primary suite offers a generous walk-in closet, a private entry to the lanai, and the added convenience of a dedicated laundry room just steps away, creating an effortless flow for everyday living. The private heated saltwater pool and spa, complete with LED lighting, overlook Blue Heron Lake and create a setting that is equally suited to a quiet morning or an evening of entertaining. The expansive covered lanai features an outdoor fireplace, pool bath access, hurricane screens, and plumbing and electrical already in place for an outdoor kitchen. Picture sunset cocktails by the pool, dinner under the covered lanai, and the lake stretching out beyond you. A three-car garage, including a separate single-car garage, provides flexibility for multiple vehicles, a golf cart, additional storage, or a workshop. Just one mile from Waterside Place Village, you are minutes from waterfront dining, boutique shopping, farmers markets, live events, and the energy that has made Waterside one of Lakewood Ranch's most coveted destinations.
