Oyster Creek Golf and Country Club isn't just a place to live; it's about an active lifestyle, connecting with nature, and fostering friendships. This well-maintained 3 BR home, cherished by its original owners, offers an exceptional chance to own a piece of paradise and experience a coastal lifestyle just minutes away from Manasota Key's pristine sandy beaches. Arriving at the home, you will notice a spacious driveway that leads to a side-entry garage, while the screened front door allows the gentle breeze to flow while keeping the bugs out. Step inside and be wowed by the expansive living room. Soaring ceilings and quadruple sliding glass doors create a light-filled, airy space with wide-open views of the backyard and the fairway beyond. The screened-in lanai seamlessly extends the living area, creating an ideal indoor-outdoor haven for entertaining or relaxing. The kitchen, not only a space for cooking but the heart of the home, includes a practical design and transitions into a spacious breakfast nook. An extensive breakfast bar is ideal for a quick snack or entertaining the cook. Plenty of storage keeps everything organized, and the extensive counter space is great for preparing meals. Everyone loves a split floor plan providing privacy for all. Two spacious bedrooms share a full Jack and Jill bathroom with raised dual vanities and a combined tub/shower. The second bedroom has tile floors, while the third bedroom has access to the lanai. Tucked away for privacy, the prime suite offers a generous space with sliding glass doors leading directly to the screened-in lanai. Start your day in the ensuite bathroom with raised dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a spacious walk-in closet. Solid construction plus hurricane protection lets you rest easy. Adding to the peace of mind, a brand-new barrel tile roof was installed in 2023, and a new A/C system was installed in 2021. Plus, being in an X-Flood zone means you'll have lower flood insurance rates(optional) and peace of mind knowing your home is in a low-flood-risk area. OYSTER CREEK is a guard-gated, maintenance-free community centrally located in Englewood, ensuring convenient access to everyday necessities. Residents enjoy a large, heated community pool and spa, tennis and pickleball courts, bocce ball, a clubhouse with countless activities, a fitness room, and a library.
