Situated on a premium corner lot backing to a scenic pond, this meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded Cape May model in the highly sought-after community of Lighthouse Lakes offers the ease of one-level living with space and the serenity of beautiful water views. Inside, 9-foot ceilings and rich walnut engineered hardwood flooring create a warm and elevated feel throughout the main living areas. Just off the foyer, you’ll find two bedrooms and a full hall bath, including a versatile suite that can serve as a second primary or in-law retreat. This space features its own secure combo door lock, a large walk-in closet, an attached bath, and peaceful pond views. All bedrooms are equipped with modern, remote-controlled ceiling fans for added comfort. The home opens into a spacious, light-filled living area with a desirable split floor plan. The gourmet kitchen is the centerpiece, offering a large island with breakfast bar seating, quartz countertops, 42-inch soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, and a pantry. The adjoining living room is anchored by a cozy natural gas fireplace, while the dining area features sliding doors leading to a rear composite deck. Here, you can relax, dine al fresco, and take in tranquil pond views along with the soothing sounds of the nearby fountain. From the deck, just a few steps away, a paver patio provides an additional outdoor gathering space, perfect for grilling and entertaining. Privately situated on the opposite side of the home, the primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with a spacious en suite bath and a walk-in closet. A pocket door off the kitchen leads to a well-equipped laundry room with cabinetry, a utility sink, and additional storage, along with access to the expanded two-car garage featuring epoxy-coated flooring and overhead storage. Additional highlights include a Rinnai tankless water heater, natural gas heat with programmable thermostat, easy-clean Simonton tilt-in windows, a conditioned crawlspace with sump pump, and a full irrigation system to maintain the beautifully kept yard. Residents of Lighthouse Lakes enjoy a wealth of amenities, including a community pool, clubhouse with kitchen, fitness room, tennis courts, putting green, kayak access, playground, and more. The HOA also includes lawn maintenance and common area care, allowing for a low-maintenance lifestyle in a vibrant, amenity-rich setting.
