Property Description

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in The Forest at Panther Ridge, this gracious gated estate rests on one of the most beautiful homesites in the community. Set on 7.83 stunning acres of mature oaks and pines, the property backs up to Bridle Creek, offering scenic views and convenient access to the community's extensive riding and hiking trails. This 4/5-bedroom home has been lovingly maintained and is currently receiving significant and high-value updates (as the work progresses, new photos will be added). When you arrive and the gates swing open to the estate, you begin your drive up the long, winding driveway and arrive at a home that immediately feels welcoming. The front porch, with its classic brick flooring and charming tongue-and-groove ceiling, sets a gracious tone. Step inside and discover thoughtfully designed, generously proportioned living spaces (10' ceilings 1st floor, 2nd floor vaulted to 12'). The inviting great room features a cozy gas-burning fireplace and French doors that open to a covered lanai and sparkling pool — perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor living. On the main level, the primary suite offers a true retreat with two large walk-in closets and a luxurious spa-style bathroom. The oversized kitchen with a large center island offers ample storage and features a breakfast nook overlooking the front garden. You'll also find a formal dining room, a large office, a convenient half bath, and an oversized laundry room. Upstairs, a secondary primary suite provides privacy with its own en-suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with a shower, while a spacious loft offers flexible space ideal for another office, media room, or play area. An air conditioned bonus room over the garage, complete with its own closet, adds even more versatility. Altogether, this creates a comfortable 4/5-bedroom, office, 3.5-bath home. Major investments have recently been made in the home's most important systems. These include a full roof replacement completed in 2019, three new high-efficiency air conditioning systems (two installed in 2025 and one in June 2026), a new water filtration system, and in 2024 the pool was resurfaced and a new above-ground heated spa and deck was added along with a new screen enclosure, creating the perfect spot for year-round relaxation. Outside, there is a side-load garage and ample parking. The expansive backyard features a welcoming fire pit — an ideal spot for evening gatherings with family and friends. A whole-house generator ensures peace of mind and uninterrupted comfort no matter the weather. For those who love the equestrian lifestyle, the property offers a 4-stall barn with 12x12 stalls, tack room, feed room, and electric. The land is fully fenced and cross-fenced with three paddocks and enclosed riding arena. Additional outdoor amenities include a large concrete workshop/outbuilding with RV hookup and a separate RV charging station. Set in the highly desirable Forest at Panther Ridge — (Panther Ridge has one of the highest elevations in Manatee County) — this estate offers the best of both worlds: serene acreage living with modern comforts. Enjoy quick access to The Concession Golf & Country Club, Premier Sports Campus, Publix, Wawa, vets to care for your pets, restaurants and more, only a few miles away. Also close, UTC Mall, top hospitals, and all that Lakewood Ranch has to offer. So private, and yet, close to everything!
