Sweeping Golf Course Views in Governors Green at The Plantation Golf & Country Club This home overlooks the picturesque Panther Golf Course in the sought-after Governors Green neighborhood. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by an expansive, light-filled interior with soaring cathedral ceilings, a formal living and dining area, and sliding glass doors that open to a spacious lanai—perfectly framing the stunning golf course views. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the kitchen and family room offer open sightlines to the lanai and golf course, ensuring you’re always connected to the beauty outside. The family room also features a cozy gas fireplace, adding warmth and charm. The covered lanai includes an outdoor kitchen with a sink, a separate pool bath for convenience, and a sparkling pool and spa—creating the ideal setting for enjoying Florida’s year-round sunshine and watching golfers play through. Although the pool and spa currently do not have a heat source, they were previously heated by solar and propane systems, which could easily be reinstalled. This elegant home boasts architectural details such as cathedral ceilings, Plantation shutters, and walls of sliding glass doors. While the interior may benefit from a few cosmetic updates, the home has been lovingly maintained with a brand-new roof (2025), new pool cage (2023), and updated HVAC system (2019). Additional features include roll-down Kevlar hurricane shutters on the lanai and front door, accordion shutters, and a whole-house generator powered by two buried propane tanks totaling 750 gallons—providing peace of mind during storm season. The spacious primary suite offers serene views of the pool and golf course, and the ensuite bathroom includes dual sinks, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and oversized walk-in closets. The thoughtful split floor plan provides privacy for guests with two additional bedrooms and a shared full bath. You’ll also love the abundance of storage throughout, including a generously sized laundry room and ample closet space. This home is offered turnkey furnished, with only a small number of furniture and décor items excluded—making it easy to move in and start enjoying immediately. Optional membership to the Plantation Golf & Country Club provides access to two 18-hole championship golf courses, 13 Har-Tru tennis courts, six pickleball courts, Bocce Ball, a fitness center, a Jr. Olympic pool, and exceptional dining and social events. Perfectly located just minutes from beautiful beaches, shopping, dining, Wellen Park Downtown, the Atlanta Braves Spring Training Stadium, and convenient access to I-75, this villa offers the best of Florida living. This beautiful home is ready for your personal touch—don’t miss the opportunity to make it your own!
