Modern Mission in the Heart of Palencia
Tucked within the early phase of the esteemed Palencia community—where mature trees and lush landscaping set the tone—you'll find this Custom Home, a rare and natural variation of Mid-century Modern. Unlike the Spanish Colonial and Craftsman bungalows that define the neighborhood, this residence offers a refreshing architectural departure with its clean lines, minimal ornamentation, and expansive walls of windows that flood the home with natural light.
Designed with both beauty and function in mind, the open floor plan blends airy, light-filled living spaces with seamless transitions between indoors and out. The chef's kitchen is a showstopper, featuring Solid Wood 42'' Merillat, Arctic White Sile-Stone quartz countertops, and a Thermador stainless steel range, refrigerator and dishwasher—all anchored by a striking central island. The great room effortlessly flows into both casual and formal dining spaces, offering flexible entertaining options. Tucked just beyond, the media room includes surround sound, a wine chiller, and tranquil garden views, making it the perfect escape for movie nights or quiet evenings.
The owner's suite is a private sanctuary with a spa-inspired bath boasting a soaking tub, oversized walk -in shower, double vanities, dressing table, and three generous custom closets. Two additional guest suites share a spacious bath, and a dedicated open study offers inspiring garden viewsideal for working from home or reading in quietude.
Step outside to your Zen-like atrium, where river rocks, fountain feature and lush plantings exude calm. The saltwater pool with waterfall and spa, enclosed by a screened lanai becomes a kind of seamless extension of the living space inviting year-round enjoyment. The outdoor kitchen and fire pit promise memorable evenings under the stars.
This one-of-a-kind home is not just a residence, it's a statement, nestled within one of North Florida's most beloved master-planned communities. Experience life in Palencia, gated and enriched by nature, and reimagined through the lens of timeless modern design.
