This magnificent home offers an impressive list of premium features and thoughtful recent updates throughout. As soon as you step inside, the quality is evident: gleaming hardwood floors, soaring cathedral ceilings, stunning exposed beams, and a spacious open-concept layout centered around a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The chef's kitchen is truly a highlight, featuring a double oven, updated high-end energy-efficient appliances, solid wood cabinetry, beautiful granite countertops, a built-in coffee bar, and a large island with seating for seven. The home is bright and welcoming with hurricane- and burglar-resistant windows throughout (equipped with safety coating that will not break). It is listed as a 3-bedroom but can easily function as a 4-bedroom. Two separate staircases offer convenient and private access to the upstairs. All lighting has been upgraded to energy-efficient LED, and motion-detection lighting enhances exterior safety. Additional smart upgrades include an in-duct UV air sterilization system for cleaner indoor air, updated moisture barrier and siding, a solid-core front door with security peephole, a storm door with built-in screen, and a hurricane-rated garage door with automatic deadbolts. A full security system with owned cameras monitors the exterior and select interior areas. A solid-block 180 sq ft hurricane/safe room provides Category 5 storm protection. The home features two master suites, a downstairs master with a refreshed ceiling and a fully updated upstairs master bath, plus a high-efficiency hot water heater. Outside is an entertainer's dream. The sparkling Pebble-Tek saltwater pool has been completely refreshed with a new pump, cleaning system, directional LED lighting, and upgraded pavers with oversized deck drains. Pop-up and French drains keep the area dry, while efficient roof panels on the pool lanai reduce heat. A fenced dog run with doggie door, full irrigation system in both front and backyard with rain sensors, and a dedicated well for backup water and irrigation complete the outdoor functionality. Additional highlights include a new septic system and leach field, a large pole barn and shed, both with new 220/110 electrical service, ideal for RV and boat storage, plus dusk-to-dawn LED lighting. You'll also enjoy the spacious screened family pavilion with full electrical service and an above-ground Jacuzzi, perfect for relaxing and entertaining. This property truly has it all, exceptional construction, extensive modern updates, strong storm protection, and outstanding outdoor living spaces. You must see it in person to fully appreciate everything this home has to offer!
