WHAT A GREAT LOCATION -- Literally minutes from LAKE SUMTER LANDING. This beautifully REDESIGNED GARDENIA with 3 oversized bedrooms, all with closets, and 2 baths offers modern elegance and premier UPGRADES throughout! Nestled in a quiet CUL-DE-SAC on a HUGE PRIVATE lot with plenty of space for a future pool, this home provides the perfect blend of luxury and functionality. Lovely curb appeal with stacked stone curbing, painted drive, and a NEW ROOF MAY 2024. Step inside to an OPEN-CONCEPT floor plan with lovely ITALIAN PORCELAIN TILE flooring throughout the entire home! The ISLAND design kitchen is a showstopper, featuring new WHITE SHAKER cabinetry with BRASS hardware, QUARTZ countertops, CARRARA marble backsplash, KITCHENAID STAINLESS appliances with 6 burner GAS cooktop, commercial hood vent, CONVECTION WALL OVEN and CONVECTION MICROWAVE, STAINLESS FARMHOUSE SINK, large WALK-IN pantry, and a WINE (beverage) refrigerator is a Chef's dream. The kitchen nook has a built-in COFFEE BAR and extra cabinets, but still plenty of room for casual dining. You'll find PLANTATION SHUTTERS throughout the home and all designer custom fixtures and ceiling fans. The lovely dining and living room open out to one of the standout features of this home; the GLASS ENCLOSED FLORIDA ROOM which seamlessly extends your living space (344sf) providing a tranquil spot to relax. This room was specifically built with Category 5 standards to include hurricane rated picture windows (with motorized shades) and sliding glass doors, and connection to the whole house HVAC system. You will be pleasantly surprised when you see the guest rooms. Guest room 1, has been extended to 20'x12' and is already plumbed and ready to go as a mother-in-law suite, if needed. It includes a lovely bay window with plenty of room for a sitting area and a door that opens out to the amazing patio. Guest room 2, has been extended to a generous 16'x12' with a closet. The designer guest bath has QUARTZ countertops, and a beautifully tiled shower with frameless glass sliding door. The spacious primary suite has French doors that open out to the Florida room area, 2 WALK-IN closets and an EN-SUITE bath with a lovely glass and tiled ROMAN SHOWER, dual vanities, framed mirrors, designer fixtures, and a separate water closet. Step outside to an AMAZING mansard screened PATIO (30'X18') offering a private outdoor retreat perfect for year-round enjoyment. You have complete privacy with a park-like setting yard and plenty of room for a POOL! The new HVAC and the ON-DEMAND hot water heater were replaced in May 2024. A great location that offers LAKE SUMTER LANDING, Recreation Centers, golf, dining, and shopping. This home is a RARE find in a prime location. Don't miss the opportunity to own this EXCEPTIONAL property!
