EXCEPTIONAL VALUE AWAITS THIS PROPERTY'S NEXT HOMEOWNER. Welcome to refined living in one of the area’s most sought-after communities—River Wilderness Golf & Country Club. Set on a lush, oversized lot with mature landscaping, this exceptional residence pairs luxury upgrades with true hurricane readiness, delivering peace of mind, safety, and long-term value. Serene pond and preserve views greet you upon entry and flow throughout the home’s thoughtfully designed spaces. This residence lives generously with 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 half baths, formal living and dining rooms, a spacious family room, and a flexible bonus space ideal for a home office, den, game room, or guest suite. Nearly every inch has been refreshed or rebuilt with high-end finishes rivaling new construction, while a split floor plan offers privacy for owners and guests. A classic wood-burning fireplace anchors the family room, adding warmth and charm. Beyond its striking interior, this home stands apart for its exceptional storm-resilient construction, representing a minimum of $200,000 in hurricane-hardening improvements, exclusive of interior renovations. Features include PGT impact-rated windows throughout (no shutters to install), a Miami-Dade–approved hurricane-rated garage door, and motorized Kevlar roll-down shutters at the front entry and rear lanai, rated for winds up to 150 mph. A whole-house 22KW Generac generator with twin 100-gallon propane tanks ensures uninterrupted power, while an architectural roof with documented wind-mitigation credits provides insurance savings. Located in desirable Flood Zone X, the home eliminates the need for mandatory flood insurance. Additional mechanical upgrades reflect the same no-expense-spared approach, including a new 5-ton HVAC system (2024), whole-house dehumidifier (2022), whole-house air scrubber, whole-house Aquasana water filtration system and salt free water softer (2026). The chef’s kitchen has been completely reimagined with solid-wood custom cabinetry, Quartzite and Silestone countertops, a designer backsplash, JennAir 6-burner gas cooktop, double wall ovens, Bosch dishwasher, and pot filler—seamlessly connecting to the family room and lanai for effortless entertaining. Bathrooms are equally refined, featuring premium tile work and high-end fixtures throughout. Fresh interior paint (2025) and exterior paint (2026) complete this meticulously upgraded residence. Outdoors, enjoy Florida living at its finest with a 17,000-gallon saltwater pool and spa overlooking tranquil pond and preserve views, complemented by travertine decking, a pool bath, outdoor shower, and covered lanai. The pool has a new Pentair Salt Cell (2025) and main pump re-build (2025) and can be heated by either propane or solar, offering year-round enjoyment with flexible energy options. Nestled along the Manatee River, River Wilderness offers mature landscaping, oversized lots, a private boat launch, and optional club amenities including championship golf, dining, tennis, pickleball, and fitness facilities. Convenient to the Fort Hamer Bridge, Lakewood Ranch, and Parrish. This is more than a home—it’s a statement of quality, preparedness, and refined Florida living.
