Under contract-accepting backup offers. Tucked behind a breathtaking canopy of mature oaks, this is one of Manatee County’s last truly rare finds: a fully renovated home in the sought-after gated community of Greyhawk Landing, set on a premium lot backing to a protected preserve with serene, private lake views. Enjoy the peace and beauty of nature right in your backyard — with none of the upkeep. Wildlife visits daily: deer, owls, turtles, and songbirds make this backyard feel like a living sanctuary. Inside, nothing was left untouched. A complete renovation in 2023 brought wood-grained ceramic tile throughout, a new roof, updated kitchen and bathrooms, refreshed laundry room, resurfaced pool deck, custom closets, new lighting, and fresh interior and exterior paint. This is not builder grade — it’s a tasteful, thoughtfully executed update that feels fresh and modern without being overdone. With 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, the floor plan is both generous and flexible. Two living areas, two dining areas, and a kitchen bar give everyone space to spread out — or come together. The split layout offers genuine privacy: the expansive primary suite occupies the entire left wing of the home, featuring two custom walk-in closets, a soaking tub, dual vanities, and direct pool access. Two additional bedrooms include walk-in closets; one has its own full bathroom, while another is adjacent to a bathroom with direct access to the pool. The fourth bedroom works beautifully as a guest room, home office, or share the bathroom as a Jack-and-Jill suite. Greyhawk Landing is one of the last neighborhoods of its kind in Manatee County — a beautifully established, gated community where the tree-lined entrance sets the tone the moment you arrive. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities including pickleball courts, soccer and baseball fields, two pools (including a splash pad), basketball, tennis, and a full fitness facility. Homes like this don’t wait. Come see it before someone else d
