About this home

A private heated spool — pool and spa in one — overlooking a peaceful lake, where every evening feels like a getaway. This beautifully upgraded Valencia Trails home offers resort-style living just steps from the amenity center. With over $258,000 in builder upgrades, this move-in-ready home is thoughtfully finished from top to bottom. The open kitchen is a standout, featuring GE Profile stainless steel appliances — including a French-door refrigerator, gas cooktop, convection oven/microwave, dishwasher, and beverage center — along with quartz countertops and backsplash, upgraded soft-close cabinetry, a large pantry, and a vented hood. A reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink provides filtered drinking water. Wide-plank engineered hardwood flooring flows through the main living areas, den, and primary bedroom, creating a warm, cohesive feel. The primary suite offers a true retreat, with a soaking tub, frameless glass shower, and dual sinks, while the guest bathrooms are finished with equally upgraded tile and fixtures. Step outside to the screened lanai, where your private heated spool — complete with built-in seating, jets, and lighting — sits perfectly positioned to take in the lake view. It's especially magical in the evenings, offering a peaceful escape even after the community's amenities have closed for the day. Additional highlights include impact windows and doors, solid-core interior doors, an extended 2-car garage, a paver driveway, a Tesla charging station, a water softener, and wiring ready for modern technology. Valencia Trails is a premier 55+ community offering a clubhouse, resort-style pools, a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, an on-site restaurant, and a full calendar of activities — all just minutes from Naples' best shopping, dining, and beaches.
