Welcome to Willowbend, where quiet meandering streets of manicured lawns live, and so can you! Well respected Builder, Lee Wetheringon built sturdy homes and this one will not disappoint! Every bell and whistle upgrade! Open your double stained glass front door to the foyer. Views of a peaceful lake and enormous great room greet you! Double tray ceiling has optional lighting feature and adds layers to the already extra, high quality custom built-ins. Taller doors grace the rooms throughout... Dining room is spacious enough for a large dining table. Convenient custom built-in sideboard for seasonal storage or serving pieces! Great room is 'just that', it's big! Sliding doors open to caged lanai and lakeside views. Kitchen is expansive and has a broom closet and pantry! Southern exposure and extremely high ceilings keep this house light and bright. Breakfast area has 3 panels of aquarium glass windows. Take a peek! But wait, there's much more! The master suite is substantial! More than spacious, it offers a peaceful sitting area also overlooking the lake and lanai. There are two walk-in closets! Double sinks in the master bath, along with a garden tub and water closet. Once again, light and bright! The 3rd bedroom, (has a closet), has been turned into an office! Get a lot of work done here! State of art custom cabinetry! Lovely... Bedroom #2 has its own wing with a full bath. This home has gas in place for the water heater, laundry, etc. The laundry room features a gas Fisher-Paykel laundry set and deep sink! Garage also has lots of storage! Community pool and small clubhouse close by! HOA provides all lawn services, to include care of shrubbery. Conveniently located close to both Sarasota and Venice. Willowbend is a short distance to Nokomis Beach, the wonderful waterfront restaurants off Blackburn Point and Laurel Road, Legacy Bike Trail and Historic Marie Selby Spanish Point! Costco is close and so will be the Trader Joes and Whole Market, both of which are being built! This home is special...
