Under contract-accepting backup offers. Within the desired Sanctuary enclave of River Club, this custom Todd Johnson waterfront residence captures the essence of refined Florida living in one of the area's established and picturesque communities. Known for its mature tree-lined streets and homes gracefully positioned around an 18-hole public golf course, River Club offers a rare blend of timeless charm and everyday convenience. Combining an exceptional location near Braden River Elementary and Braden River Middle School with the uncommon advantages of low HOA fees and no CDD fees, River Club continues to be one of the area's most enduring places to call home. Designed for gracious everyday living and effortless entertaining, the home offers an expansive floor plan with over 2,700 square feet of living space, three generously proportioned bedrooms, each thoughtfully built with a 2-foot expansion, along with three full baths featuring oversized vanities. A spacious den adds versatility for a private office, media lounge or additional guest accommodations, while the oversized garage, also extended approximately two to three feet in both width and length, has been enhanced with custom cabinetry to provide exceptional storage and function. This home has been thoughtfully maintained over the years with many updates already completed, including a new roof in 2020, new air conditioner in 2024, fresh exterior paint in 2026, resurfaced pool decking in 2025 and kitchen appliances, washer and dryer replaced in 2017. On an elevated homesite, approximately 36 inches above the crown of the road and located outside of a designated flood zone, the residence reflects thoughtful planning and enduring quality. These improvements provide a strong foundation for comfortable living while allowing the next owner the opportunity to tailor the interiors to their own vision and style. Beyond the interiors, outside, an expansive screened lanai frames the sparkling pool and tranquil water views, creating an inviting backdrop for morning coffee, sunset cocktails and year-round entertaining. With generous covered and open-air living spaces, the lanai offers a private retreat that embraces the beauty of the waterfront setting and the ease of the Florida lifestyle. Ideally located near Lakewood Ranch with convenient access to Sarasota and Tampa, River Club offers proximity to an exceptional array of lifestyle amenities, from The Mall at University Town Center and Nathan Benderson Park to championship golf, Gulf Coast beaches, fine dining, upscale shopping and Sarasota’s celebrated arts and cultural scene. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy a spacious waterfront home in a community defined by natural beauty, enduring character and an enviable location.
