Perfectly positioned on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood and offering sweeping views of Ruby Lake, this exceptional residence blends luxury, comfort, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the meticulous care and enhancements poured into this home.

The open-concept living area is filled with natural light and leads seamlessly to the expansive screened lanai, where tranquil views of Ruby Lake, the community gazebo, and the lakeside clubhouse provide a serene and picturesque backdrop.
