Set on a hammerhead cul-de-sac in IslandWalk at Wellen Park, this Martin Ray model by DiVosta brings together an unobstructed pond view, abundant natural light, and the thoughtful details that make a home feel complete. A screened front entry and brick-paver porch create a gracious arrival. Inside, plantation shutters and crown molding throughout lend a timeless finish, while open living spaces keep the peaceful view part of the everyday. The setting comes into its own when the infinity pocket sliding glass doors disappear, opening the great room to the rear brick extended paver lanai with panoramic screening. Breakfast stretches a little longer here. Dinner moves outdoors. As the light changes across the pond, the lanai offers a beautiful place to bring the day to a close. Roll-down hurricane shutters on the rear lanai, along with hurricane shutters for the home, add practical storm protection. The current owner secured a low homeowners insurance premium of just $200 per month; buyer premiums will vary based on coverage and individual qualifications. At the heart of the home, the kitchen offers an expansive sweep of quartz countertops, generous prep space, and abundant cabinetry. A curved island with seating for five invites conversation over morning coffee, casual meals, or appetizers while dinner takes shape. A true pantry keeps essentials organized, while a butler’s pantry and wine fridge make entertaining feel effortless. A stove/range approximately one year old adds everyday convenience. The kitchen opens to the great room, keeping everyone connected, while a dedicated dining room provides a beautiful setting for everything from intimate dinners to holiday gatherings. Ceramic tile flows through the main living spaces, with carpet bringing softness to the bedrooms. The single-story layout balances inviting gathering areas with space to retreat. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and an en suite bath with dual vanity sinks and a separate water closet. A second bedroom and full guest bath with a tub welcome overnight visitors, while the den offers flexibility for a home office, library, or favorite pursuit. Everyday conveniences receive equal attention. The laundry room includes extra cabinetry and a utility sink. A mudroom area just inside the garage entry creates a convenient drop zone. The two-car garage features an epoxy-coated floor, smart garage door, workshop space, and room for golf cart parking. Rain gutters and an irrigation system round out the exterior features. Beyond the front door, IslandWalk offers a resort-style lifestyle within a gated Wellen Park community. Start the morning with pickleball or tennis, swim in the resort-style or lap pools, or visit the fitness centers before taking a stroll along scenic pathways and distinctive bridges. Clubhouses, social activities, a dog park, and a community garden offer opportunities to build friendships and find a favorite routine. Nearby Downtown Wellen Park brings shopping, dining, lakeside outings, and live entertainment close to home. Catch Atlanta Braves spring training at CoolToday Park, spend an afternoon exploring historic downtown Venice, or head to Venice Beach or Manasota Beach for a day along the Gulf shoreline. Return home to sunlit rooms, an open view across the pond, and an evening with nowhere else you need to be. ¤ Please see 3D Tour and Video ¤
