Discover the epitome of luxury in The Concession, where the legacy of Jack Nicklaus and Tony Jacklin's golf course design elevates every moment. Tucked away in this exclusive enclave, this John Cannon home offers sophistication and grandeur reminiscent of European estates, all while nestled amidst the privacy of towering oak trees. Step through the Cantera front doors into a world where 12-16 foot ceilings on the first floor and 10-foot ceilings on the second set the stage for a regal welcome.<br />
<br />
The heart of this home is its beautiful kitchen, where granite countertops and modern appliances invite culinary masterpieces to be created. An expansive walk-in pantry and butler's pantry are just the beginning; the wine cellar right off the kitchen is the perfect touch for any connoisseur, much like the grand cellars of old-world estates. The primary suite is a sanctuary, boasting custom walk-in closets, a spacious sitting area with bay windows, and a bathroom that feels like your personal spa with an aquarium shower, garden tub, and marble-topped vanities.<br />
<br />
Outdoor living is redefined here with a heated pool and spa, where disappearing sliders blur the lines between the opulence indoors and the lush outdoors. An outdoor kitchen awaits your first barbecue, complete with a brand-new 6-burner grill. The backyard, a private haven bordered by an oak hammock preserve, is enhanced by extensive new landscaping and landscape lighting, ensuring every evening is as enchanting as the last. The property also features a beautiful courtyard and a huge paver driveway, newly painted and sealed, leading to three 12-foot garage doors. <br />
<br />
Recent upgrades speak to the meticulous care of this property: newer appliances, ACs, pool heater, and a freshly painted interior and exterior. The roof has been thoroughly inspected, and the plumbing, windows, and electrical systems have passed their evaluations with flying colors. Epoxy floors grace the garage, and the exterior has been pressure washed for a pristine look. <br />
<br />
Additional features include coffered ceilings, rich crown molding throughout, and extensive custom closet systems. The upstairs area offers a spacious bedroom, a grand bathroom with a private water closet, walk-in shower, soaking tub, mini kitchen, and a huge media/bonus room with sliders that disappear onto the covered balcony overlooking the oak preserve. The upstairs area would also be perfect as an in-law suite, a private guest apartment, or accommodations for live-in staff.<br />
<br />
The home's design ensures each room is bathed in natural light, enhancing the indoor-outdoor flow, with every detail thoughtfully curated for luxury living.<br />
<br />
The Concession is more than a neighborhood; it's a lifestyle, with less than 250 estate residences spread across 1200 acres. Here, each home is a testament to distinctive architecture, set among ancient oaks, majestic pines, and serene wetlands, offering a regal ambiance. The gated community's exclusivity is matched by its amenities, and memberships are available to the private golf club, clubhouse, and restaurant. <br />
And just beyond, Lakewood Ranch offers a tapestry of life with its recreational facilities, top-rated schools, vibrant local economy, and cultural experiences. <br />
<br />
This home isn't just an address; it's where your story begins, surrounded by beauty, privacy, and the rich tapestry of community life, all within the confines of your very own luxurious estate. |
