18130 Parkridge CT

Set within Parkridge Estates, a small hidden gem community of elevated coastal residences with no HOA fees, this 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath Key West-style home occupies a fenced lakefront lot with a palm-shaded circular drive. Glass double doors off the front porch open to a two-story great room, where a stacked-stone fireplace rises to a wood-inlaid turret ceiling and oversized windows frame the water beyond. The interior centers on a thoughtfully appointed chef's kitchen, where a GE Cafe appliance suite with double ovens and two dishwashers is joined by an invisible induction cooktop, drawer microwave, pot filler, wine cooler, and a built-in Miele plumbed coffee system, all arranged around a generous seating island beneath sculptural SCA Design light fixtures and served by a walk-in pantry. The dedicated entertainment level comprises a home theater, a game room opening directly to the pool terrace, and an infrared sauna, with integrated surround sound extending indoors and out. Zoned air conditioning, a whole-home AC scent system, Rabbit Air purification, and motorized shades complete the interior, while a private lower-level guest suite and an oversized finished garage add everyday flexibility. Outdoor living unfolds across two levels of premium No-See-Um screened porches, and a crowning open-air sun deck. Below, a heated pool anchors the paver terrace, complemented by a fire pit at the lake's edge. The residence is handicap accessible and served by an outdoor vertical platform lift, while Garrison flood barriers and elevated coastal construction underscore its storm preparedness. Beyond the community, residents are a short drive from SWFL's beautiful beaches, the Sanibel Causeway, a Gulf-access boat launch "Mullock Creek Marina" less than 1/2 mile away, and great shopping/dining!
