Tranquility is just one of the many desirable features this lovely home offers. Located on a quiet street, with other newer homes nearby, this could be your own piece of paradise! The seller has made several updates and improvements in the past few years, including replacing the concrete driveway with pavers, which continue with a pathway down the right side of the home, and installing landscape curbing. The front entry was screened, and exterior painted in a coastal color scheme that is echoed throughout the home. New impact windows in July 2022, and the roof replaced in January 2023, mean less worries for a new owner. Upon entering, you will notice the bright, open feel, high ceilings, crown molding, recessed lighting, tile floors, and tasteful decor in modern, neutral colors. Note that all the ceiling fans throughout the home have lights and are remote controlled. On your right is the dining room, now open to the updated kitchen. On your left is the relocated entrance to the first of the three guestrooms, which could serve as a home office. Move on to the remodeled kitchen, with beautiful granite counters, and an abundance of 'soft-close' cabinetry. Stainless Frigidaire appliances, all less than three years old, include a large French door refrigerator with two freezer drawers, low-profile glass-top stove, and sleek dishwasher, as well as a 30" Bosch under-counter microwave. The door at the far end leads to the laundry room, with large, stacked LG washer and dryer, and access to the 3-car garage, which offers plenty of room for vehicles and storage, and houses the 3-year old Rheem water heater. Crossing back through the kitchen, the archway on the left leads to a unique feature not found in many homes today - a Butler's pantry! The extra cabinets and counter space are perfect for storing small appliances, extra dinnerware, the 'good silver', and more! The hallway also leads to the other two guestrooms, a linen closet, and guest bathroom. Across from the large living area, another archway, with wall niche, directs you to the master bedroom. This generous space is big enough for a king-sized bed and sitting area. Two walk-in closets flank the hallway to the master bath. Here you will find a double vanity, soaking tub, separate shower, and linen closet. Back in the living room, enjoy the view through the triple glass sliding doors, which have remote controlled shades. Step outside to the covered lanai, and take in the L-shaped, heated, saltwater pool and spa that can be controlled from an app. You can also enjoy the serene view over the canal through tropical landscaping. The waterfront is seawalled, with water and power connections for your future dock. South Gulf Cove is a boating community, with Gulf access and 55 miles of canals to cruise! However, your eyes will no doubt be drawn to the large private, paved, vinyl-fenced patio area. This is the perfect spot for entertaining, grilling, sunbathing, get-togethers with family and friend, etc. There is also a grassy section along the side of the house that can serve as an area for your pets or kids play equipment. So much to offer, and definitely worth seeing in person. Schedule a showing today!
