Step into a residence that defies the standard "cookie-cutter" aesthetic, offering a bespoke, cottage-inspired atmosphere that feels both intentional and high-end. Situated within the gated enclave of Arboretum, this 2-bedroom plus den, 2-bathroom home lives with the ease and presence of a single-family residence, elevated by custom interior architectural details that set it apart from anything else on the market. The living area serves as the heart of the home, anchored by custom ceiling beams and sophisticated wall treatments that add depth and character to every corner. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a sprawling island perfect for morning coffee or evening hors d'oeuvres. For those seeking a dedicated workspace or a quiet retreat, the den is tucked behind a custom barn door, blending privacy with impeccable style. What's not obvious to the eye is what makes this home even more of a stand out: Whole house water softener and custom cabinetry in the pantry, laundry, and primary suite. Key to any Florida home is the expansive outdoor living space. Boasting the largest lanai footprint of any floor plan in the neighborhood, this area provides an unrivaled canvas for lounging and entertaining. Living in Arboretum means enjoying a curated lifestyle with access to a resort-style pool, fitness center, and a dedicated dog park. The location is equally impressive, putting you moments away from the fine dining and luxury shopping of 5th Avenue South, the lush beauty of the Botanical Gardens, and the vibrant activity at Sugden Community Park and it's new boardwalk. This is a rare opportunity to own a home in an HOA where every detail has been thoughtfully considered.
