This is not your typical resale. 16216 Palmetto Street is a former Meritage model home built in 2019 and designed from the ground up to showcase everything the builder had to offer. What that means for you: premium finishes, thoughtful upgrades, and a level of fit and finish that standard production homes simply don't deliver. Four bedrooms, three full baths, and 2,190 square feet unfold across a split floor plan designed for both privacy and connection. The den has been converted into a fourth bedroom with its own private en suite bath; perfect for multigenerational families, out of town guests, or a dedicated home office that feels like its own retreat. Every surface has been refreshed. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout, fresh paint throughout and a new refrigerator all installed within the last year. This home is genuinely move in ready, not just marketed as move in ready like most. The two car garage goes well beyond storage; climate controlled, finished with coated concrete floors and flush mount lighting, it functions as legitimate year round bonus space whether that becomes a workshop, fitness room, or hobby studio. Step out back to a screened lanai with preserve views that offer privacy, tranquility, and a natural backdrop that feel like a serene oasis. All of this sits inside Babcock Ranch, America's first solar powered community and one of Southwest Florida's most resilient and sought after locations. Resort pools, pickleball, tennis, waterfront dining, Founders Square entertainment, trails, and a Publix anchored shopping center are all within the community.
