Welcome to your private resort-style retreat in the highly sought-after Preserve at Panther Ridge. This beautifully maintained home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a private office, an upstairs bonus room, a 4-car garage, and two exterior parking pads, all situated on a scenic lot with preserve views on one side and a tranquil pond behind the home.
Enter through elegant double glass doors into a bright and spacious interior with soaring ceilings and abundant natural light. The formal dining room features decorative columns and tray ceilings, while the living room showcases stunning views of the pool, fenced backyard, and pond, creating a perfect space for relaxing or entertaining.
The remodeled kitchen is a chef’s dream with quartz countertops, soft-close cabinets and drawers, extra storage, under-cabinet lighting, a custom vent hood, and premium Bosch appliances. Updated LED lighting throughout the home allows adjustable warm or cool tones, and built-in ceiling speakers provide music in the family and living areas along with surround sound for TV.
The spacious primary suite overlooks the pool and backyard and features tray ceilings and a beautifully updated en-suite bathroom with quartz counters, custom cabinetry, designer tile, a jetted soaking tub, and a walk-in shower with a hidden seating nook. The split floor plan offers privacy from the additional bedrooms.
Two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with quartz countertops and high-end finishes, while a fourth bedroom with its own full bath is ideal for guests. A half bath conveniently serves visitors and pool guests, and the private office with large windows provides a perfect work-from-home space.
Upstairs, the large bonus room with engineered hardwood floors offers incredible flexibility. Currently used as a game and sitting room, the pool table can stay, and the space could easily be converted into a 5th bedroom, media room, or second office.
Step outside to your resort-style backyard oasis featuring a heated saltwater pool, full outdoor kitchen, expansive covered entertaining areas, and a large fenced backyard overlooking the pond. The preserve on one side adds additional privacy and a peaceful natural setting.
