Description for 8043 Waterbend Trail, Sarasota, FL, 34240 - LAKE IBIS
Welcome to 8043 Waterbend Trail, a stunning custom Outrigger model by Homes by Towne, offering nearly 3,000 sq ft of elegant living space in the desirable Lakehouse Cove at Waterside. Unobstructed, panoramic views of Lake Ibis define this coastal-inspired residence. Wake up to the gentle shimmering of sunrise over the open water and end your day viewing spectacular pink-tinged skies. This coastal-inspired home is a true sanctuary, offering a front-row seat to nature with herons gliding by and birdsong filling the air. Just a short drive from the community’s best amenities, this is more than a home—it’s a daily escape. Designed with luxury, comfort, and style in mind, this home features three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, a versatile den/flex space, and a three-car garage. From the moment you enter through the elegant glass front doors, you’re greeted by a bright, open interior where meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout. The welcoming foyer sets the tone with a tray ceiling, custom lighting, and a large framed mirror with a built-in shelf. The open-concept great room is a true showpiece, showcasing a tray ceiling, custom fireplace, and expansive sliding glass doors that seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living. Step outside to your private waterfront oasis—an expansive bronze-screened lanai with travertine pavers, two covered entertaining areas, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, perfect for lounging or alfresco dining. The heated saltwater pool and spa feature a waterfall, accent tile, and panoramic screen enclosure, all overlooking serene lake views. The formal dining room—currently styled as a sitting and gathering area—features tray ceilings and an oversized backlit framed mirror, flowing effortlessly into the great room and kitchen for easy entertaining. The chef’s kitchen is equally impressive, offering quartz countertops, tile backsplash, wood cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, a natural gas oven with vent hood, upgraded appliances, a spacious walk-in pantry, and an oversized island with pendant lighting that serves as both a breakfast bar and connection to the casual dinette. A dedicated den provides a private and inspiring workspace with a tray ceiling and flexibility to function as a home office or media room. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, highlighted by tray ceiling and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring quartz split vanities, a tiled walk-in shower, and a custom-designed walk-in closet with built-ins by The Tailored Closet Company. The two additional guest suites offer spacious walk-in closets and are conveniently located near the second full bath, ensuring comfort and privacy for visitors. Additional highlights include a powder room/pool bath, a well-appointed laundry room with washer and dryer, soaking tub, folding counter, and ample cabinetry. Notable upgrades include impact windows and doors, tile flooring throughout (no carpets), plantation shutters, full-house water softener, EV charging unit and custom garage storage cabinets by Tailored Closets. Lakehouse Cove residents enjoy premier amenities including seven lakes, 20 acres of shoreline, a clubhouse, fitness center, resort-style pool, pickleball, kayaking, dog parks, and a maintenance-free lifestyle—all with low HOA fees.
