WELL- THIS is the one you have been waiting for! Completely DARLING! One of the really fabulous features here, is a real honest to goodness YARD!!!! You walk into the large beautiful front yard through a gate where you have a beautiful lawn, gorgeous tree, patio space for a BBQ and entertaining and spacious private home entrance! Forget about all the homes you've seen...where you tell yourself that a tiny patio or a deck up off a living room is enough for your lifestyle! INSIDE, you have a great room with a fireplace, slider to the yard, a spacious kitchen open to the living area with even enough room for a small table, granite counters & lots of storage! There's a giant walk in closet for storage galore or a fun 'Play Room' for little people! There's a 1/2 bath, dining room and direct access to the 2 car garage and laundry area. As you head upstairs you'll notice BEAUTIFUL wood flooring throughout the entire upper level. There's a remodeled hall bathroom for the secondary bedroom with beautiful tile, linen storage and the guest room or second bedroom. Closet area is ready to customize and a lovely view out the window. Then the master suite - which features a highly customized bathroom with an amazing wall of clothing storage, a separate 'water closet', and a large shower! Again - its cheerful and sunny with a nice view, ceiling fan, and some excellent closet space. There is all new fresh bright paint, new PEX piping, and a complex that for once..... has plenty of guest parking, beautiful and convenient surroundings, close to great schools, shopping and all of the utterly amazing SAMLARC amenities! Absolutely EVERYTHING you could ever want as far as fun! Tennis, pickleball, basketball, parks, playgrounds, BBQ areas, fitness opportunities, Beach Club and lagoon, multiple pools/spas and so much more. This is an absolute treasure - don't let it slip through your fingers!
