Beautifully appointed and thoughtfully designed, this 3,691 square foot Mattamy home offers five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, a private office, and an exceptional outdoor living space overlooking a tranquil conservation preserve. One of the home's most remarkable features is its stunning 26 by 13 foot heated saltwater pool, installed in 2017 and enhanced with a new salt cell in 2026. The pool is complemented by an impressive 463 square foot covered lanai, fully finished with pavers and offering abundant room for outdoor dining, lounging, and entertaining.

The private backyard enjoys a peaceful conservation backdrop that provides a wonderful sense of seclusion, with a portion of the preserve included in the property itself for added privacy. Inside, the thoughtfully arranged split floor plan offers separate living and family rooms, a formal dining room, elegant triple crown molding, and a welcoming gas fireplace. The living room, family room, kitchen, and primary suite all overlook the pool and lanai, creating a seamless connection between the home's interior and its beautiful outdoor setting. The well-appointed kitchen features wood cabinetry, an island, breakfast bar, pantry closet, dedicated wine storage, and multiple work surfaces. A private office with French doors provides an ideal space to work from home.

The home's versatile fifth bedroom is an impressive upstairs loft complete with its own ensuite bathroom, offering wonderful possibilities as a private guest suite, playroom, yoga studio, or additional office. Walk-in closets in four bedrooms, a spacious laundry room, and a generously sized two car garage with room for a compact third vehicle, workshop, or additional storage provide everyday convenience. Numerous improvements add to the home's appeal, including a new roof in 2019, 22 replacement windows installed in 2024 and 2026, new laminate wood flooring in the kitchen, living room, dining room, and office, new gutters, and a Generac whole house generator with a new ten year warranty. A paver driveway and an existing termite bond provide additional benefits.
