The second-floor laundry room also makes everyday living that much easier. Every bedroom features a walk-in closet, while the primary suite takes it even further with a walk-in closet plus two additional closets—perfect for shoes, linens, and extra storage. Bedrooms feature views overlooking either the resort-style community pool or peaceful preserve, with the primary bedroom enjoying beautiful views of the mature natural setting behind the home.

The community offers a resort-style lifestyle with NO CDD fees! Amenities include a gated entrance, resort-style pool, clubhouse and cabanas, outdoor BBQ area, and artificial turf perfect for cornhole and outdoor games. Enjoy a day by the pool, entertain family and friends, or take a peaceful walk around the community lake and nature preserve. Water, sewer, and trash are also included. And then there's the location. Conveniently positioned near top-rated schools, shopping, grocery stores, gyms, hospitals, and plenty of restaurants.
