Home Description

Upon entering through the gates of The Ridge at Crossing Creek, one is welcomed into a quiet preserve setting with serene pond view and the feel of nature all around. Within the community, this cottage-style 3 bedroom and 2 bath home exudes warmth and an airy light breezy feel with its high ceilings, large windows with handsome accent framing, LED lights in most rooms, and Solatube lighting throughout. Additionally, crown molding was added everywhere except in the guest bath and laundry room; ceiling fans with wall-mounted controls in all rooms, and wiring was installed for both co-AX cable and fiber optic Internet. The open floor plan highlights the home’s 2136 sf and is enhanced by large neutral ceramic tile floor set on an angle, especially in the living room and adjacent dining room. Both rooms also feature half-height shiplap accents - the dining room on much of its wall area and the living room within its entertainment wall and under the counter island between the kitchen. The well-planned kitchen is complete with real wood cabinets, stainless appliances including a Bosch dishwasher, granite countertops, subway backsplash, and a custom pendant ceiling light over the island. The traditional breakfast nook is currently used as a cozy reading room overlooking the backyard. The split bedroom plan allows both the primary bedroom and 2 guest-room area ultimate privacy. All bedrooms are carpeted, and the oversized primary bedroom enjoys preserve views, walk-in closets and an en-suite bath with double sinks and large glassed open shower. The office, with its glass French doors, could be a 4th bedroom or den. This home is special inside and out, and the outside can be brought in by opening the pocket sliders into the extended caged lanai to take in the the tranquil preserve view and fenced back yard. The full fencing was done right - with 3 separate gates - as was the screened front door for air flow and the gutters placed all around the roof to protect the home. This home has amazing upgrades - even in the garage with its mini-split air conditioner, insulated garage door, 2 solar-powered attic fans, and brand new epoxy floor (March 2, 2025) - wow! The Ridge neighborhood offers a resort-style pool and spa overlooking the pond and featuring covered seating and an outdoor grill. In addition to the experience of relaxed Florida living, this prime location is just east of 75 and north of State Rd. 70, allowing easy access to shopping, dining and entertainment at UTC mall, Waterside and Main St. in Lakewood Ranch, the arts and cultural activities of Sarasota and, of course, the famous Gulf beaches
