This is not your typical Pinnacle. Extensively upgraded and thoughtfully customized, this 4-bedroom + den, 4-bath pool home with loft offers more than 3,500 square feet of living space on a private preserve lot in the gated Somerset neighborhood of The Plantation Golf & Country Club. The expansive open-concept great room features dramatic custom coffered ceilings, crown molding, recessed lighting, built-in cabinetry, floating wood shelving and a stone-accent entertainment wall, creating a polished yet comfortable space for everyday living and entertaining. A separate den/home office with French doors, tray ceiling and custom board-and-batten millwork provides valuable flex space for working from home, a media room or additional sitting room. At the center of the home is a gourmet kitchen featuring an oversized island with seating, abundant white cabinetry, stone countertops, tile backsplash and top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, including a gas cooktop with stainless hood and wall ovens. Additional features include a reverse-osmosis drinking water system, upgraded pantry shelving, newer dishwasher and garbage disposal. The appliances are backed by a six-year extended warranty through Ferguson. Just beyond the main living area, a custom wet bar and wine storage area features cabinetry, stone countertops and a Thermador column wine refrigerator. The spacious first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat with a tray ceiling, preserve views and a beautifully appointed bath featuring dual vanities, an oversized walk-in shower and generous closet space. Additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for family and guests, while the upstairs loft adds flexible living space ideal for a game room, media room or guest retreat. Outdoor living is a standout feature. The expansive screened lanai overlooks the private preserve and surrounds a beautifully renovated pool and spa featuring new glass tile, a new fountain pump and new gas heater. A fully equipped outdoor kitchen includes a microwave, beverage refrigerator, double burner and built-in griddle. A buried propane tank supplies the home's gas features, while an electric storm shutter provides additional protection across the lanai. With generous covered and open-air living areas, the lanai functions as a true extension of the home and offers exceptional privacy. Additional upgrades include extensive custom millwork, designer lighting, upgraded storage and organization and numerous improvements made well beyond the original builder specifications. Located within The Plantation Golf & Country Club, residents enjoy a gated community setting with convenient access to shopping, dining, I-75, RSW International Airport and everything Southwest Florida has to offer.
