You don’t just see the lake — you feel it the second you walk in. The front door opens and your eyes go straight to the water. It’s expansive, peaceful, and completely captivating. This is the kind of view that makes you pause… and picture yourself living here. Designed to bring the outdoors in, four walls of sliders open to a truly oversized lanai. Two sets fully pocket away, and the disappearing corner in the breakfast nook opens wide so the pool, pond, and sky become part of your everyday life. The recently resurfaced sparkling pool sits on a travertine deck and feels like your own private resort — perfect for sunset swims, weekend gatherings, or quiet mornings with coffee by the water. The great-room layout feels open, modern, and effortlessly livable. Triple pocketing sliders connect the main living space seamlessly to the outdoors. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite countertops, nearly new refrigerator and microwave, a whisper-quiet Bosch dishwasher, and a Thermador built-in oven/range that makes cooking feel elevated. The owner’s suite is privately tucked away and feels like a retreat. Double-tray ceiling, expansive windows overlooking the lake, two walk-in closets, and a spacious bath with dual vanities, Roman shower, soaking tub, and private water closet. A mini-split AC (2023) lets you personalize your comfort for the perfect night’s sleep. On the opposite side of the home are two generous bedrooms with large closets and a shared bath — ideal for guests or family. At the back of the home, the bonus/game/flex room steals the show with tray ceiling, incredible water views, pocketing sliders to the pool… and yes, the pool table stays. There’s also a convenient bath that serves the pool area. Practical perks include a large laundry room with extra storage, an oversized 3-car garage (37x21) with additional storage closet, three newer AC units, a 2-year-old water heater, and updated appliances — giving you peace of mind as you make it your own. Located in Savannah Lakes inside the gated River Wilderness Golf & Country Club community, you’ll love the oak-lined streets, neighbors out walking and biking, optional club membership (golf, tennis, pickleball, pool, social events), boat & RV storage, and a community boat ramp with direct access to the Manatee River. Two 24-hour manned gates add security, and you’re perfectly positioned between Sarasota and St. Pete with easy airport access. This isn’t just a home with a pool. It’s a home where water views frame your mornings and sunsets become part of your everyday life. Buyer to verify all measurements. No trucks in drivway overnight.
