This charming and impeccably maintained Bayview single-family residence in the desirable Mallard’s Landing neighborhood enjoys serene, private western lake views and a bright, welcoming interior. Ideally, across from a quiet green space, the setting feels peaceful and secluded. Furnishings are included, and the CDD bond is paid in full. Offering two bedrooms plus a study, two full baths and a two-car garage, this home features a dramatic double-door entry, a well-planned layout, a freshly painted exterior, new coach lights and a 2018 roof, along with a paver driveway and storm protection on the lanai. The expansive screened lanai includes a generous covered outdoor living area with picturesque lake views and ample room for a future pool. Inside, abundant natural light highlights the home’s elegant finishes, including ceramic tile flooring in the main living areas, volume ceilings, crown molding, Hunter Douglas plantation shutters and blinds, and a newer HVAC system in 2023. The living room opens to the lanai through sliding glass doors, while the formal dining area-enhanced by custom mirrors and decorative wall molding-also provides access to outdoor living. The beautifully appointed kitchen features white cabinetry, a tumbled marble backsplash, recessed and under-cabinet lighting, a center island with storage and LG stainless appliances, including a range, microwave, newer refrigerator with icemaker, dishwasher and wine cooler. A cozy breakfast nook with a large garden-view window sits just off the kitchen. The owner’s suite is a tranquil retreat with garden and water views, tray ceilings with recessed lighting, elegant wall detailing and luxury vinyl plank flooring. French doors lead directly to the lanai, and the en-suite bath offers dual vanities, a walk-in shower with glass enclosure and bench, and a spacious walk-in closet. The guest bedroom also includes luxury vinyl plank flooring and an en-suite bath with a walk-in shower and linen closet, providing comfort and privacy for guests.
