Nestled on a rare, coveted double lot spanning nearly one acre, this exceptional home is located within the prestigious gated community of River Wilderness Golf & Country Club. Beautiful mature landscaping, towering shade trees, and a long driveway create a lasting first impression while providing plenty of parking for family and guests. As you step inside you'll immediately notice the abundance of natural light, high ceilings, and a stunning view of the sparkling pool. Tile flooring flows throughout the entire home, complemented by tray ceilings, crown molding, and plantation shutters that add timeless character. A formal dining room provides the perfect setting for holiday gatherings, while the separate den with built-in shelving offers endless flexibility as a home office, playroom, library, or personal fitness room. The expansive kitchen is truly the heart of the home. It features a large breakfast bar, center island with cooktop, stainless steel appliances, double ovens, under-cabinet lighting, a walk-in pantry, and eat-in space overlooking the pool and scenic backyard. The kitchen seamlessly opens to the spacious great room, creating an inviting space for hosting friends and family. The private primary suite serves as a relaxing retreat with direct access to the pool, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious ensuite bathroom complete with dual vanities, a garden tub, and a tiled walk-in shower. Additional interior highlights include a laundry room with built-in cabinetry, utility sink, and hanging space, along with a spacious 2.5 car garage featuring golf cart parking, built-in storage and a separate air-conditioned hobby/workshop—ideal for crafts, woodworking, or additional workspace. Step outside to your own private backyard oasis where you'll enjoy the heated pool and hot tub. Two charming gazebos provide unique outdoor living spaces—one cedar-lined with water access, making it an ideal greenhouse or gardening retreat, and the other offering a peaceful setting to relax with a good book or enjoy your morning coffee. This meticulously maintained home also includes numerous valuable updates and upgrades, including a new roof (2025), new irrigation well pump & control panel, reverse osmosis water filtration system in the kitchen, solar hot water for the home, a whole-house Generac generator with an owned underground propane tank that provides backup power for peace of mind. River Wilderness Golf & Country Club is one of the area's most sought-after communities, offering a tranquil setting perfect for walking and biking. Residents enjoy a 24-hour manned gate, a private community boat ramp on the Manatee River, dedicated boat and RV storage, and convenient access to the nearby Fort Hamer Boat Ramp. Golf, tennis, athletic, and social memberships are available but not mandatory, allowing homeowners the flexibility to enjoy the lifestyle that best suits them. The club and golf course are now professionally managed under new ownership and is currently being enhanced with a multi-million dollar renovation to upgrade the facilities and elevate the overall community experience. Conveniently located just minutes from Lakewood Ranch, I-75, exceptional dining, shopping, and the Gulf Coast's world-renowned beaches including Anna Maria Island, Siesta Key, and Coquina Beach, this remarkable property offers luxury, privacy, and an unbeatable Florida lifestyle.
