The difference between a home that has been lived in and a home that has been loved is obvious. Don't miss this one, a well-maintained and truly loved townhome in Gran Paradiso that shows clear care and thoughtful upgrades. Strong location, solid value, and a range of high-quality improvements make it an attractive, priced-to-sell opportunity. It is offered partially furnished and includes thousands of dollars in custom trim work. A standout feature is the custom extended lanai with custom decking-one of the larger outdoor living spaces among the community's townhomes. This home delivers a competitive price per square foot along with practical storage options, including a large under-stair closet, two separate master bedroom closets, a utility closet on the lanai, and high garage ceilings that allow for additional storage. A roll-down Kevlar-style hurricane shade provides one-touch storm protection and privacy when desired. Cement walls between units contribute to structural strength and low noise transfer. Downstairs living areas feature tile flooring, with carpeting upstairs in the bedrooms and on the stairs. Recent updates include a new countertop and sink, new dishwasher, induction range, and water heater, plus a fully renovated half bath with Kohler fixtures. The master bath has a Kohler frameless shower door, and both full baths include Kohler toilets. A newer washer and dryer are also in place. Interior finishes feature crown molding throughout, foyer wainscoting, a board-and-batten stairwell, a coffered living room ceiling, and stone facing on the kitchen peninsula. Closet organization systems, a built-in office, and new hardware on the vanities and kitchen cabinets top-up the list of upgrades, along with the extended lanai. It is situated with a prime location putting you just steps from the Gran Paradiso clubhouse and an impressive lineup of resort-style amenities: a sparkling pool and spa, state-of-the-art fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, sauna, library, billiards room, and much more. Just outside the gates, everything you need is remarkably close: 1 mile to vibrant Downtown Wellen Park with shopping and restaurants, 1.2 miles to the brand-new Costco, 7 miles to pristine Gulf beaches, 9 miles to charming downtown Venice. If you're looking for the perfect blend of peaceful living, stunning water views, low-maintenance luxury, and unbeatable location in Gran Paradiso, this immaculate Townhome at this price is the one!
