Welcome to this inviting 4-bedroom, 3-bath home with a den and a spacious 3-car garage, beautifully set on a private preserve lot with a BRAND NEW ROOF. The HVAC was replaced 4 years ago. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, LG stainless steel appliances, and a convenient breakfast bar that opens to the dining room. Inside, an open floor plan is accented by thoughtful details such as a shiplap feature wall, two sliding barn doors, and two floor outlets in the living room for flexible furniture placement. The home’s interior has been freshly repainted, while the updated laundry room and new vanity lighting in the bathrooms add a modern touch. The spacious primary bath includes dual sinks with split vanities and a step-in shower, creating a comfortable retreat. Step outside to enjoy Florida living at its best. The exterior was painted in 2021 and enhanced with a screened lanai and an extended brick-paver terrace overlooking the tranquil preserve.
