PRICE IMPROVEMENT on this custom Arthur Rutenberg home which was the crown jewel of the renowned Design Street at Laurel Oak Estates, a row of five exquisite Model homes, each featuring exceptional upgraded finishes and fixtures making them the sought-after models many chose to build throughout Laurel Oak. This Rutenberg Catalina II model highlights 3,750 square feet of thoughtful design and is poised on a long and wide golf fairway of the Player course with phenomenal sunset views. The gorgeous curb appeal of the Selby-Gardens-like front lawn with winding brick paver entry walk and brick paver driveway with extended drive space is matched by lush landscaping providing privacy on either side and no homes in sight beyond the golf fairway. The soaring 12-foot ceilings are complemented by an abundance of windows and hurricane impact sliding glass doors highlighting the views and flooding the home in natural beautiful sunlight. Extensive landscape lighting transforms the lawn into a resort-like oasis in the evening. Comprised of four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, an office/den, kitchen/great room, living room, dining room, double sided wet bar and buffet. Entertain with ease on the expansive lanai with pool, spa and Summer Kitchen.

Enter through the custom etched glass double door entry and grand foyer and you are greeted with direct views of the spectacular lanai with new travertine, a resurfaced pebble-tec pool and spa and the rolling fairway beyond. The home shines with other improvements including real wood plantation shutters throughout, a Summer Kitchen, gas fireplace, central vacuum, a pristine Polyasparatic garage floor, automatic awnings on lanai extending the undercover space significantly.
