Property Description

Virtually Staged. Privately nestled well back from a quiet county road, this beautifully updated and meticulously maintained 1.65-acre retreat boasts TWO homes, framed by towering oaks, elegant palms, and crisp white vinyl fencing. The 3-BR 2-bath 1,869 sq-ft primary home features a split floor plan plus an attached garage, while the detached 1-BR 1-bath 614 sq-ft guest house features a huge workshop and bonus studio with full bath. With over $160,000 of improvements and updates since 2023, you can enjoy life without the worries of major repairs looming. Inside the primary home, the soaring ceilings and abundance of natural light capture your attention to the left, while the huge kitchen grabs it to the right. The kitchen's large granite-topped island with breakfast bar and undercounter storage sets the stage for the updated stainless appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher and large dual-sided sink with industrial-style faucet (2023), abundant cabinetry with slide-outs, and a reach-in pantry, along with the convenient garage access. Views of hummingbirds perched on backyard blooms surround the main living area, sunroom, and primary bedroom suite that boasts crown molding, abundant closets with closet organizers, a tastefully updated private bath with walk-in shower, and access to the huge indoor laundry room. At the rear of this home is a screened lanai opening to the extended patio with several sitting areas, including a fire pit for those cool nights under the bright stars. These two homes are separated by a gorgeous backyard with plenty of room for Rover to run, highlighted by a paver walkway that leads to the covered pavilion with mature flowering trees, electrical hookups, and the shed with electrical stays! The rear 1/1 detached home with a metal roof includes its own private driveway, yard, studio, paved walkway, and private sitting area. Inside, the main living area opens to the kitchen that features stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinetry, disposal and range hood, and ornamental backsplash. The full bath includes a walk-in shower, and the generous bedroom includes an interior entrance to a spacious storage space, updated washer/ dryer (2023) and a huge garage workshop with electricity and two garage doors positioned on opposite sides of the workshop for convenience, each hooked up to remote-controlled door openers. Additional features include a Generac whole-property generator that kicks on automatically to power all buildings during outages, multizone irrigation system, security system w/cameras, updated water heaters in both homes (2023) - too many updates to list. Simply reach out for the full list.
