About this home
Lakefront sunsets from a west-facing lanai, and the upgrades are already done. This Carrington villa in The Preserve at Babcock Ranch offers two bedrooms, two baths, and a den across 1,516 sq ft. Storm-ready from top to bottom: hurricane impact windows, electric storm shutters on every window, and an electric storm screen on the lanai. Whole-home and AC condenser surge protectors, a UV germicidal light in the air handler, and an AC parts transferrable warranty through February 2033 protect the home's systems. A monitored smart security system with app alerts is also installed. Other extras include custom top-down/bottom-up bedroom shades (room-darkening in the guest room), full-roofline gutters, grab bars in the walk-in shower, sealed pavers on the driveway, walkway, and lanai, and a transferable termite protection plan. Neighboring fences line both sides of the backyard, so just a few sections would fully enclose it. All of it sits within Babcock Ranch, with miles of trails, community pools, fitness centers, golf-cart-friendly streets, and lakeside dining, shops, and events at Founder's Square.
