The open-concept kitchen is both functional and elevated, featuring quartz countertops, generous bar seating, stainless steel appliances including a built-in oven and gas range, and a walk-in pantry. A private meadow view out back brings in natural light and a sense of calm. The first-floor bedroom and full bath offer flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, a spacious loft provides the perfect setting for a media room, playroom, or home office. The owner's suite is a true retreat with a spa-inspired bathroom featuring dual sinks, a glass-enclosed shower, and a walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms with ample closet space and a full bath complete the second floor, along with a laundry room equipped with a utility sink for added convenience. Step outside to a private backyard with peaceful preserve views, offering a quiet space to relax or entertain. Additional highlights include an epoxy-coated garage floor, EV charging hookup, and hurricane impact windows on the second floor. The home is located outside of a flood zone and benefits from reasonable HOA fees with no CDD, offering strong value within the community.
