WHERE TO BEGIN . . . This stunning home in the Heritage Lakes area of Grasslands boasts the free-flowing floorplan that homes designed by Arthur Rutenberg are known for and this Portofino IV model is no exception. Built in 2011 and so extensively updated in recent years one would believe it's much newer! With nearly 3300 SF of air-conditioned living area the home features 3 spacious bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a dedicated office/study, game room, formal living and dining rooms, large family room and a kitchen that dreams are made of. Recent kitchen upgrades alone include new appliances that include a Dacor natural gas range cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer with cabinet match door panels, Dacor oven/microwave/broiler/hot air fryer combo wall ovens, KitchenAid dishwasher with cabinet match door panel, separate beverage/wine cooler, all new cabinet facings and redesigned kitchen island for added storage space, new Hi-CFM vent hood, new glass backsplash tile, and lighting. The primary bathroom was fully remodeled in 2022 to include new vanities, free-standing bathtub, a zero-barrier shower with all glass enclosure, custom tile work and more. All closets including pantry received California Closets systems for enhanced storage that insures maximum use of available space. Even the windows received a makeover with custom plantation shutters and Luminette shades on sliders that allow you to vary the amount of light and privacy desired. The pool area and outdoor/summer kitchen received a redesign upgrade in 2023 that includes TWO 10” exhaust fans, a Firemagic 3-burner gas grille stainless steel drawer & cabinet inserts and granite countertops. The entire lanai area is screen enclosed and has power drop-down privacy screening all around. All exterior ceilings boast tongue & groove wood, and the lanai now has a most unique and distinctive feature . . . a power drop down TV cabinet rarely seen in this area. Inside there are custom wall treatments, light fixtures, art installations and more that will convey with property. The oversized game room is a work of art in and of itself and the lovely craftsman style pool table will stay at the buyer's preference. The side loading 3 car garage was not neglected in the upgrade process with the installation of a dedicated mini-split AC for this space and a California Closets installation for enhanced storage and organization.
