The layout is one of the most functional you’ll find, with formal living and dining rooms up front, an enclosed home office with plantation shutters, and an open-concept kitchen and family room that overlook the serene backyard. The kitchen features a center island, breakfast nook, and easy access to the screened-in patio—perfect for outdoor entertaining. The spacious primary suite includes dual closets (one with a custom California Closet system), a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths are tucked on the other side of the home for ideal separation. You’ll also love the 3-car garage, low HOA, no CDD, and proximity to top-rated schools (Schwarzkopf, Martinez, and Steinbrenner). Just minutes from the Veterans Expressway, shops, restaurants, and parks—this is a rare chance to own one of the best lots in Calusa Trace. Don’t miss it!
