Welcome to Portmarnock Place - an enclave that is home to some of the most stately properties in the Lakewood Ranch Country Club. Offered for the first time, this custom-built residence was created by the sellers and Pruett Builders to take advantage of the expansive views while providing a refined and elegant environment. Set on a generous half-acre lot on the 18th hole, this perfectly positioned home showcases long water, fairway and preserve views. As you approach the home you are greeted by a circular driveway and lush, mature landscaping. The grand double doors invite you in where you are presented with 12 foot ceilings, an ethereal living room with fireplace and built-ins, and a wall of glass framing the beautiful views that await. Fine architectural details grace most every area of this home - from lighted double and triple tray ceilings to feature walls and custom cabinetry, fine craftmanship is evidenced everywhere. If you enjoy entertaining you will find multiple areas to gather here - the elegant dining and main living rooms, adjacent wet bar with wine cooler, expansive family room, recreation room and multiple outdoor gathering areas provide ample options for family and guests. Accessing the outdoor space is made both easy and beautiful with 6 walls of the home featuring sliding glass doors that move completely out of view, essentially combining both indoor and outdoor environs. Once outside you'll enjoy making and sharing memories by the heated salt-water pool and spa, the cozy conversation area by the fireplace and outdoor kitchen, and the intimate setting for two beyond the lanai where sunsets and sunrises are the main attraction. Inside you'll enjoy preparing culinary creations in the expansive kitchen featuring high-end KitchenAid and Bosch appliances, custom-crafted cabinetry, large walk-in pantry, expansive counter space including a prep island, and plenty of seating. There's even an additional seating area with a window seat and views through the aquarium glass to the pool area. When it's time to end the day, you'll find the owners' suite, set apart at the opposite side of the home, is a comforting retreat. Behind the tall double doors is a spacious sleeping area with access to the lanai. Attached to this space behind double French doors is a private reflection and reading room, awash in natural light with a floor-to-ceiling custom bookcase. No luxury suite is complete without a generous spa-like bath, and you'll find that here too. At over 4,700 square feet of living space under air, this residence comfortably offers 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, oversized closets (several are walk-in), large laundry/workroom combo, a formal office/den with double French doors and a wall of built-ins, an upstairs living suite with a terrace featuring endless views, and a generous 3-bay garage with ample storage.
