DIRECT WATERFRONT! NO FLOOD ZONE!!- Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, in the exclusive gated community of Waters Edge, awaits a private sanctuary where luxury, nature, and design come together in perfect harmony. Welcome to your 4 bedroom 2 bathroom waterfront dream home on the serene shores of Banana Lake—where over 1 acre of lush, landscaped privacy meets 270 feet of direct water frontage and unforgettable sunsets. As you arrive, the long paver driveway leads you along manicured landscaping and right up to the welcoming entry of this beautifully crafted residence. The curb appeal is just the beginning. Step inside and be instantly embraced by the soaring volume ceilings, rich crown molding, and the graceful coffer ceiling overhead. Natural light pours through Low-E, hurricane-rated windows dressed with plantation shutters, while mechanical blinds adjust with ease to set the mood. Porcelain tile floors stretch throughout, highlighted by recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and thoughtful architectural details in every room. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s paradise, complete with Sile Stone countertops, a gas stove with designer hood, built-in microwave, purpose built soft-close 42x15 deep upper cabinets, pull-out pantry shelving, under mounted cabinet lighting, with stainless steel appliances and an extra large walk-in storage pantry. Custom touches like the built-in L-shaped banquette make the heart of the home both functional and inviting. Retreat to the primary suite, where you’ll find beautiful lake views, custom closet shelving, a classic soaking tub, dual vanities, Corian countertops, a handicap-accessible tile shower with dual shower heads, and elegant finishes that turn every day into a spa experience. Two additional bedrooms and a stylish second bathroom provides ample space for guests or family, featuring tiled showers, a soaking tub, and timeless design. A dedicated laundry room with cabinetry, folding area, and sink makes daily tasks a breeze. Seamlessly transition to the outdoors through the 400 square foot 3-seasons porch —climate-controlled and tiled throughout, with recessed lighting, a covered kitchenette perfect for entertaining and is not included in the home’s square footage. Open the expansive accordion panoramic doors to reveal a composite screened deck leading to your heated saltwater Gunite pool, surrounded by pool pavers, with a 2024 re-screened enclosure and cinematic views that stretch across the lake. Take a walk down the paved path to the impressive 100’ boat dock (built in 2023) with covered shingles, solar lighting, and easy access to the multiple deep-water canals for boating, fishing, and sunset cruises. The 800-gallon propane tank, two tankless water heaters, six-zone irrigation, and two A/C units provide comfort and efficiency year-round. Even practical spaces have been thoughtfully designed, including a 3-car garage with shelving, pegboard, and 13’x15’ of additional storage, perfect for hobbies, tools, and seasonal gear. And don’t forget the sauna, garden, faucets and outlets on all four sides of the home, and a layout that’s both stylish and highly functional throughout. Bring your binoculars and your love of nature—this is a birdwatcher’s paradise, a fisherman's haven, and a lakefront lifestyle unlike any other. Experience elegance and tranquility on the shores of Banana Lake. Own an exceptional lakefront retreat—schedule your private showing today!
