This exceptional home was built in 1992 and features nearly 4000SF. There is a tile roof and a fresh coat of rich taupe-colored paint on the exterior that contrasts beautifully with crisp white trim.

Whether you need formal or family areas - this home has it all - and more. There are custom built-ins, mirrored dining room, zoned AC system, reclaimed water for lawn irrigation, and a 3 way split floor plan with spacious rooms. You'll find pocket doors, new ceiling fans with light kits, a new child safety fence for the pool, a security system, all new pool and spa decking and the Sentricon Termite Elimination System.

Van Dyke Farms is a deed restricted community that is located near the Suncoast Parkway and offers tennis, racquet ball, basketball and more for its residents' enjoyment.

The spacious 16X17 SF Master Suite speaks "luxury" with its double door entry, customized walk-in closet, separate make-up vanity, high ceilings, patio doors that overlook the pool and well located mirrored closet doors - one that accesses the closet from the bedroom; the other that opens into the bath area.

Pour a glass of wine, light the candles and put on your favorite CD. It's time to soak away the day in your lovely garden tub. Or step into the shower with its pretty glass block detailing for an invigorating shower. There is also a dressing area boasting a cultured marble vanity with twin sinks, a linen closet and a separate commode room.

This home certainly enjoys a "WOW" view! In fact, the property line extends far beyond the fence enclosure. Let the children and pets romp in the back yard while the grown-ups relax poolside, take a swim or enjoy the heated spa.

Outdoor cooking is a breeze on the spacious under-truss lanai featuring ceiling fans, surround sound and a brand new top of the line gas grill with all the bells and whistles.

Even if you are not a gourmet cook, you'll love the convenience of this well appointed kitchen with its acres of cabinets and upgraded lighting. There's a center island, solid surface counters, planning desk, under cabinet lighting, pantry and a snack bar for quick meals.

The dinette area fronts a huge glass on glass window that delivers the gorgeous outdoor view right to your table.

Neutral ceramic tile floors can be found in the kitchen, baths, foyer and the utility room while upgraded Berber carpet flows throughout the rest of the home.

All the appliances convey - and the flat top range and washer and dryer are new.

The huge 19X34 SF family room boasts open airy views of the kitchen, dinette and pool while the stunning bank of Palladiun windows crowning the custom fireplace expand the beautiful pond scene.

The spacious in-law suite is located off the family room - and even includes a walk-in closet. A Jack 'n Jill bath is shared by two bedrooms in a separate wing.

The fifth bedroom can serve either as a den with custom built-in shelving or as a bedroom with its own closet.

It's easy to rave about this wonderful home. But you need to see it first hand to appreciate all it has to offer. Just be ready to fall in love!
