YOU CAN AFFORD YOUR OWN SLICE OF PARADISE in this 5-star community. MAJOR PRICE IMPROVEMENT and sellers are offering a FLEXIBLE BUYER CREDIT of $5000 at closing to use toward closing costs/prepaids, potential mortgage rate buydown, or whatever best suits your situation! This 3BR/2.5-Bath, open-concept townhome has been impeccably maintained, and was never used as a rental! It shows! A multitude of upgrades and extras really set it apart from the crowd: water softener/filtration system to ensure pure water and an HVAC UV light to clean the air, new custom fans in the living room, lanai, and all three bedrooms. The home has been completely repainted in a beachy, coastal palette while new, premium Berber carpeting upstairs is soft underfoot and easy to maintain. The owners have also added a hot water circulating system so there is always hot water ready, even on the 2nd floor! HOA dues include basic CABLE TV and HIGH SPEED INTERNET, maintenance free living with lawn and yard care, exterior paint and preventive pest control and more, as well as the many 5-star amenities Gran Paradiso is known for including: a gorgeous clubhouse, resort style pool, state of the art fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, sauna and steam rooms, yoga and exercise rooms, game rooms and library. Take a walk along the walking/fitness trails or a bike ride to explore this 1000+ acre community filled with nature, preserves and lakes, right outside your door. Open and airy, with tons of natural light, there is crown molding in every room, volume ceilings and oversized tiles on the diagonal. The gourmet kitchen features a premium stone backsplash, upgraded stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a large pantry. Under and over-cabinet lighting enhance the upscale atmosphere. Unique dining area light fixtures add style. The spacious entry-level also has under-the-stairs storage and a convenient half-bath. Double-glass sliders lead from the Great Room out to a view of the serene lake from the lanai, which also has a storage closet for included hurricane shutters and other items. Sunsets are amazing! The attached, oversized garage provides even more storage with sturdy, industrial shelving. Bedrooms are located upstairs, as is the laundry for added convenience. The primary bedroom suite is a true oasis, with a reading nook, dual walk-in closets, tiled shower, double vanity, and private WC in the ensuite bath. The second and third bedrooms offer plenty of space for family or guests, one with an extended entry and walk-in closet, and another that could serve equally as a craft room or home office. The Tuscan-inspired, gated Gran Paradiso community is conveniently located near restaurants, shopping, medical facilities, schools and services. The Atlanta Braves Spring Training facility at Cool Today Park is minutes away. Downtown Wellen Park, with shops, music venues, parks, lakes and restaurants, is right across the road! The new Sarasota Memorial Medical Center and Costco Warehouse are coming soon. Historic downtown Venice and our renowned Gulf Coast beaches are a short drive, and if you’re heading out of town, it’s only about 10 minutes to Interstate 75.
