Get ready to experience the true Florida lifestyle to its fullest in this beautifully appointed second floor, 2 bedroom/2 baths, end condo at the Esplanade Golf and Country Club community in Lakewood Ranch. From the moment you walk in, a stunning view of the third hole and its water features welcomes you from across the open concept kitchen/living room making you feel right at home.  The kitchen's modern design, which includes stainless steel appliances, granite counter & bar tops, and decorative backsplash, also has several chic upgrades, including additional cabinetry with pull-out shelves, touch-sense faucet, a Culligan reverse osmosis water conditioner, and a custom lighting fixture in the eat-in dinette area; all of which will cause you to be the envy of your foodie friends and family.  Your spacious new living room includes 12-foot ceilings with state-of-the-art fans, crown molding, and an oversized sliding door with custom blinds that lures you out onto the safe and cozy private balcony lanai (boasting 95% UV shades and 20x20 mesh screening) for your morning coffee, afternoon brunch, or evening nightcap. The master bedroom, with its own sweeping views, sports his & her walk-in closets and a master bath containing a granite vanity with dual sinks, a walk-in shower, and tastefully upgraded faucets, lighting, and pull-out shelving in the cabinets.  Meanwhile, the guest quarters are separated from the main living space by a pocket door that provides your visitors with their own retreat, and, with the addition of a handsome Murphy bed, doubles as a bonus room or work-out space with plenty of extra storage. What's more, there is also a flex space with hand-crafted privacy sliding doors that serves as the perfect den or home office, a laundry room, assigned carport parking & a storage unit, a digital keypad entry & alarm system, and custom paint throughout.  But that's not all! Your new condo also includes a FULL golf membership with preferred tee times on the championship course, access to four pools (one of which is a hard-to-find resistance pool), two fitness centers, a hot tub, and courts for tennis, pickleball, and bocce.  Then, when it is time to wind down, you can opt to stay close to home and partake in a facial or massage at the neighborhood's Koquina Spa, indulge in a leisurely outdoor cocktail at Bahama Bar, and have a fabulous meal at the new Culinary Center or one of Lakewood Ranch's other numerous nearby restaurants, or you can take the short trip to catch the sunset on the world famous Siesta Key beach!
