*** PRICE DROP! *** GOLF CART & LANAI FURNISHINGS INCLUDED!! *** Pelican Preserve carriage homes are always in high demand, and this one could be yours if you act fast! This truly lovely GROUND FLOOR unit in the easy-access Aviano neighborhood has a gorgeously private WESTERN VIEW of the undulating terrain of this 55+ community's 27-hole golf course, with SPECTACULAR SUNSETS from your spacious, storm-protected, fully fabric-screened lanai. And not just one, but TWO parallel fairways separate your view from the nearest road, so the PEACEFUL QUIET is a wonderful bonus to the panoramic vista! Upon entering, you'll be impressed by the SCREENED PRIVATE FRONT ENTRY which allows for insect-shielded cross breezes throughout the home. The diagonal tile and warm colors of the Great Room offer an elegant comfort that says "Welcome home," while the kitchen's MAPLE CABINETS and spacious and extended GRANITE breakfast bar provides a great gathering place for friends and family. You can be confident in the safe and strong protection of your IMPACT-RESISTANT WINDOWS throughout the unit, which also insulate against outdoor sound. The generously-sized Owner's Suite has been updated with gorgeous deep-hued WOOD-LOOK PLANK TILE that adds a sumptuous richness to the room, and the private slider to the lanai can be opened to enjoy the cooler nighttime breezes while you sleep comfortably. A WHOLE-HOME WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM and new HIGH-PROFILE TOILETS were added in 2023, the WATER HEATER was replaced in 2022, and the tile roofs in this neighborhood are in the process of being replaced now.
