Welcome to this serene retreat, the perfect place to enjoy year-round living or escape the northern winters. Start your mornings with a cup of coffee on the screened lanai, where you can relax while watching birds in the lush nature preserve behind your home. A welcoming covered entry leads into a spacious foyer, guiding guests into the heart of the home: a bright, open great room. The kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, an oversized granite dining counter, pendant lighting, and sleek stainless-steel appliances. Just across from the kitchen, the elegant dining room creates an ideal space for entertaining friends and family. This open floor plan feels even more expansive with soaring 10-foot ceilings throughout. The peaceful primary suite, located at the rear of the home, enjoys stunning preserve views and boasts two walk-in closets and an ensuite bath. The second bedroom, thoughtfully tucked away for privacy, is adjacent to a full bath. The third bedroom is great for guests or can easily serve as a cozy den. Storage is never a concern, thanks to a generously-sized closet in the laundry room. This home has been meticulously updated with new lighting, fresh ceiling fans, and fresh interior paint, making it move-in ready. Additional upgrades include beautiful hardwood flooring, crown molding, and stylish window treatments. With impact-resistant windows at the front and accordion shutters on the side and rear, storm prep is a breeze.
