Premier Custom Country Club Home located in the highly desirable gated Governors Green neighborhood at The Plantation offers the lifestyle you desire. From the moment you arrive, you will be engaged by the meticulous care and attention this home has experienced, starting with the gorgeous paver driveway and mature tropical landscaping leading to the beautiful leaded glass entry door. Beyond the entry and spacious great room with its 12 foot ceilings, you'll love this home's sun-splashed split plan creating the perfect flow for entertaining family and guests. Walls of glass open to the tiled Florida sun-room and screened lanai, where you will enjoy expansive golf views of the 16th fairway of the Panther golf course. The great room plan offers volume 12 foot and 10 foot ceilings throughout the 3 large bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, formal dining room, spacious breakfast room, large and bright kitchen with lots of cabinet space, large pantry, and stainless steel appliances, plus the pleasant den/office for working at home or hiding away curled up with a good book. The large bay windows of the breakfast room and the master suite allow panoramic views of the golf course. Storage is never a problem with 11 closets and a super-sized 2+ car garage, perfect for storing your Florida beach toys. Rest easy knowing the home has full storm protection. Recent upgrades include new appliances and AC in 2023, new roof in 2018, HWH in 2020, and exterior paint, paver driveway, and ceiling lights and fans in 2024. Although membership in The Plantation Golf and Country Club is not mandatory, their two premier golf courses, tennis facilities, pool, and dining are a golfer’s paradise and the best of country club living. For the non-golfers, the beauty of the courses and the neighborhood certainly add to the charm of this delightful home. Located minutes from Historic Venice Island with its quaint shops, dining, beaches, biking/walking trails, fishing, performing arts center, and other cultural venues, and easy access to I-75 for quick trips to Sarasota and area airports.
