Don’t miss out on this beautiful property located on one of the most private and oversized lots in Laurel Lakes at just under half an acre! Over 1,000 sq feet of outdoor living makes this gorgeous 3/2.5 + den + 3 car garage home one of the most beautiful properties in the entire community. Completed in Nov of 2015, all day long is like a birder’s paradise and a scene from National Geographic. Upon entering the home, you are greeted with the most expansive views of mother nature and the gorgeous pool area. Beautiful, newer, wide-plank wood tile floors welcome you into the spacious great room and separate dining area where the open concept layout creates inviting gathering spaces for family and friends. Enjoy mornings with the songs of birds like ibis, osprey, herons, roseate spoonbills, sandhill cranes as they visit the lake and its oaks. Open the slider and let the outdoors in! Updated kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring wall ovens, a gas range, and breathtaking quartzite countertops and another set of sliders opening out to the lanai. Adjacent to the kitchen, a cozy coffee nook invites you to savor your morning coffee or relax with a good book. Fishing on your property is permitted, as is the use of non-motorized boats like kayaks and canoes. The den/office can easily be converted to a 4th bedroom thanks to the closet. Enjoy privacy and comfort with a split floor plan that separates the master suite from the other bedrooms. Retreat to the master wing, which encompasses the full side of the home and a private entry out to the lanai. Master bath features double extended vanities, a large garden tub, linen closet and a walk-in shower, providing the perfect sanctuary after a day of golfing or biking. Step outside to the private backyard, where a newer pool and extended lanai beckon for relaxation, entertainment and breathtaking views all day long. The lawn just beyond the lanai means more space for outdoor enjoyment. Unwind with a glass of wine, a little grilling and fishing, accompanied with the most brilliant sunsets. Upgrades like tray ceilings, crown molding, 8’ doors, ceiling fans, oversized laundry room with tub, two sets of sliders, recessed lighting, gas cook-top and gas pool heater, and more.
