This elegant, brand new canal-backed model home will transport you in mind and spirit to the dreamy canals of Venice, Italy. It has been exquisitely appointed and staged by our renowned professional decorator and is available either furnished or unfurnished.  You will absolutely adore the large, cheerful and open kitchen featuring a decorative "cooking hearth" evocative of romantic Italian brick oven pizzerias. The kitchen also boasts all new high-end matching appliances, ceramic tile floors, back splash and edging, ample cabinet space/drawers, and a charming two-tier kitchen island and snack bar. You will also appreciate high end touches like wood laminate floors, finished walls, decorative light fixtures, ceiling fans throughout, and elegant baseboard molding. The master suite belongs in a "Palazzo" with its private terrace overlooking the canal, and ample ensuite bath featuring double sinks and deepwater roman soaking tub. But above all else, this home was sited and built for maximum outdoor enjoyment with its professional landscaping, rocking chair front porch, generously sized raised screen-room, and extra large back yard with walking path right on the canal. And, like all homes in this desirable lakeside community, you will appreciate the off-street covered parking, energy efficient central air and heat, your own 6x6 outdoor storage shed, and access to the community's extensive recreational amenities including fitness, tennis, basketball, shuffleboard, putting green, clubhouse, sauna, heated pool complex, lake recreation and more. You will have to move quickly as canal homes are highly sought after and rarely available at this fabulous price for a brand new model home!
