Conveniently located just 13 minutes from Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base, 28 miles from Jacksonville International Airport, 26 miles from Amelia Island, 45 minutes from Jekyll Island, and only 2.5 miles from Publix, shopping, and dining. The stately stucco exterior is complemented by a courtyard-entry garage, lush St. Augustine lawn, palm trees, azaleas, crepe myrtles, and thoughtfully designed landscaping that provides both beauty and privacy. A winding walkway leads to the backyard, where you'll find a screened, heated inground pool with a waterfall feature, covered lanai, open deck overlooking the community pond, and multiple spaces designed for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, a welcoming foyer is filled with natural light from a decorative front door with an arched transom window. Dramatic archways lead to the formal dining room featuring a cathedral ceiling and crown molding. Double French doors open to a dedicated office that can also serve as a fourth bedroom. Italian porcelain tile designed to resemble wide-plank hand-scraped wood flows throughout much of the home, including the foyer, dining room, office, living room, kitchen, breakfast nook, primary suite, guest hallway, laundry room, and guest bath. Crown molding enhances the foyer, living room, office, kitchen, and breakfast nook. The spacious living room centers around a gas fireplace with decorative tile surround and custom built-in cabinetry accented with dentil molding. French doors provide direct access to the lanai, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

Privately situated on its own wing, the primary suite is accessed through a small foyer and features French doors opening to the lanai with peaceful views of the pool, landscaped backyard, deck, and pond. A double-step tray ceiling adds architectural interest. The ensuite bath includes dual vanities with a dedicated makeup area, a large jetted soaking tub, tiled shower, private water closet, linen closet, and a spacious walk-in closet with abundant shelving, hanging space, and a window for natural light.
