    What's special

    Grace, privacy, and refined functionality come together in this beautifully updated four bedroom, four and a half bath residence by David Weekley Homes, ideally located in WaterColor's sought after Cypress Cove district. With a large backyard and near a serene natural preserve, the home offers a peaceful backdrop for everyday living or extended stays along 30A. A soaring 25 foot foyer creates an impressive first impression and leads past a private study with French doors into a light filled family room, spacious dining area, and gourmet kitchen. Newly refreshed with a reimagined island, striking backsplash, and all new flooring, the kitchen features JennAir Pro Series appliances, Timberlake cabinetry, and marble countertops, making it ideal for entertaining or gathering with family. The dining area flows seamlessly to a screened porch overlooking lush greenery. The first floor owner's retreat offers private porch access and a luxurious bath with dual vanities and a soaking tub. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms, including a second floor master, an ensuite bedroom, and a bunk room, along with a second sitting area, provide ample space for guests. Thoughtful details include shiplap accents, oak flooring throughout, glass tile finishes, and a one car garage. Near WaterColor Crossings and moments from the Gulf, this home offers access to resort style pools, tennis, a fitness center, trails, and the gulf front Beach Club.
