Generous in size, with plush carpet and large windows, your guests will feel right at home. The guest bathroom is located just outside this room - complete with shower/tub combo and a vanity with ample storage space. To your left you will find your utility room which houses your washer and dryer, provides extra storage space, access to your garage, AND has an amazing feature - private access to your master closet...making doing laundry a cinch! Across the hall is your office/den, which can easily be utilized as a third bedroom or guest room. Continuing through the foyer, you will find an open entertaining space - with a dedicated dining area, sitting area, great room and a HUGE gorgeous kitchen. The kitchen is the heart of the home - and this enormous island is the perfect spot to entertain friends and family. The walls are lined with cabinetry, a chef's dream with plenty of storage! The island also has additional storage below - while the stainless steel appliances offset the granite tops beautifully. There is a gas cooktop with commercial grade hood, large refrigerator, wall oven, and built-in microwave. The under cabinet lighting showcases your high end backsplash - creating an ambiance that will wow your guests. The great room has large sliders with custom shades that open to your enclosed and tiled nearly 234 sq ft Florida room. Views of your HUGE fenced in backyard, outdoor pavered patio, and partial pasture view provides maximum privacy on this premium lot. The master bedroom is located on the opposite side of the home with large windows, allowing for natural light, large ceiling fan, plenty of space for large furniture and even a spa-like ensuite bathroom. Huge walk in closet will make any homeowner happy - and access to the laundry room as mentioned keeps chores, like laundry, out of guests' sight. The dual sinks and large vanity is extra convenient and the stand up shower features beautifully designed tile and a seamless glass door. This home is an absolute showstopper, and in addition to the fenced in yard and upgrades throughout the home, this home also has a whole house water softener. The golf course designed by Tripp Davis and PGA Tour star Tom Lehman is one of a kind and this community has no shortage of things to do! Relax at the spa, take a class at the state of the art gym, go for a bike ride on the miles of trails within the community, play tennis or pickleball with friends, or take the kayak out on the lake!
