The exterior features full hurricane protection that includes custom fit Kevlar hurricane protectors and storm smart roll downs across the lanai, whole house gutter system, and a charming front porch. As you step through the front door your eyes are instantly drawn to the beautiful hardwood floors that run throughout the entire home. Decorative crown moldings, custom cased windows, 8-foot doors, Hunter Douglas window treatments, extra recessed lights, and built-in surround sound speakers are just some of the extras this home has to offer. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring maple cabinetry with dovetail constructed soft close drawers, wood pull-outs, exotic granite countertops, under cabinet lighting, decorative stone backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances. A custom pantry outfitted by Closet-Tech will help keep you organized. The kitchen opens to a large dining area and oversized living room, making this the perfect space for entertaining or everyday living, all while you enjoy the fantastic view. The primary suite is large on space and flooded with light. Enjoy views of the water while you relax in bed on those lazy mornings. The primary bathroom creates a spa like experience with double door entry, double sink vanity, and a massive seamless glass walk-in shower. There is a separate water closet and a large walk-in closet with more custom built-ins designed by Closet-Tech. On the opposite side of the home, you will find a second bedroom and a second full bathroom. Just off the two-car garage is a drop zone mud room area and a separate oversized laundry room that was upgraded with a large utility sink, decorative backsplash, and upper cabinets that create a ton of extra storage. The front den is the perfect place to set up a TV room, an office, or an area that could easily be enclosed and turned into a third bedroom if needed. Unique to this floor plan is a half bathroom that is great for guests, keeping your bedrooms traffic free. More than enough space to put in a pool or extend the lanai should you choose!
