Welcome to 4016 Carteret Drive — a refined 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom lakefront sanctuary located in the incredible 55+ Traditions Community of Winter Haven. Perfectly positioned on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood and offering sweeping views of Ruby Lake, this exceptional residence blends luxury, comfort, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the meticulous care and enhancements poured into this home. Plantation shutters on every window, upgraded lighting, a newer solid-roof lanai (2017), and beautifully updated kitchen finishes— including a tile backsplash and a tiled wall along the bar counter—create a polished and timeless aesthetic. The open-concept living area is filled with natural light and leads seamlessly to the expansive screened lanai, where tranquil views of Ruby Lake, the community gazebo, and the lakeside clubhouse provide a serene and picturesque backdrop. The gourmet kitchen features solid-surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of storage. The owner’s suite is an inviting retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms and two well-appointed guest bathrooms provide comfort and versatility for family, guests, or a home office. One guest bathroom has been upgraded with a luxury Safe Step walk-in tub and Jacuzzi. Step outside onto the lanai—fully screened at both the front and rear—and enjoy unmatched privacy with no rear neighbors, only a peaceful grassy detention basin leading directly to the lake. The solid-roof lanai ensures year-round outdoor enjoyment, and the beautifully maintained landscaping includes mature Bottle Brush and Tibichina trees, adding color and charm to the oversized lot. This home also boasts an extensive list of functional improvements: • Rear roof shingles replaced after the Milton hurricane • New AC system (4-ton, upgraded from 2.5-ton) – 2019 • Six upgraded ceiling fans installed • Gutters added on front roof • Solar attic fan providing over 3,000 CFM • Insulated west-facing garage door • Installed cabinets above washer/dryer • Dropdown ladder with attic storage decking • Flagpole mounted in the front yard • Entire interior repainted approximately 3.5 years ago • Refrigerator included Located just steps—about two blocks—from the clubhouse, residents enjoy easy access to resort-style amenities including a lakeside pool and spa, fitness facilities, billiards, pickleball, tennis, basketball, walking paths, sauna, craft room, and a private boat ramp with rentable slips on Lake Ruby.
