Overview

{{{{{BE SURE TO WATCH THE VIDEO}}}} LUXURY at its finest! Partially furnished WATERFRONT AND EVANS PRAIRIE GOLF FRONT (#5 Killdeer) with enormous BIRDCAGE covering a spectacular saltwater POOL and SPA. Nestled in the Village of Gilchrist, this DESIGNER HOME is breathtaking inside and out! Flanked by mature PALM TREES with a welcoming SITTING AREA out front. Transform the entire yard with fresh, vibrant sod. This extraordinary home invites you to enjoy its upgrades, which are too many to mention but include: DOUBLE CROWN TRAY CEILINGS, tile on the DIAGONAL in the living areas and WOOD LOOK tile floors in the bedroom, PLANTATION SHUTTERS, stacking SLIDERS, 6 SOLAR TUBES, tall BASEBOARDS, CROWN throughout, and a whole home WATER FILTRATION system. Inside, the kitchen boasts GRANITE, STAINLESS APPLIANCES, and white stair-stepped cabinets, some with elegant glass fronts. But the culinary delights don’t stop there, because the OUTDOOR KITCHEN will not be outdone! Set under an INSULATED LANAI ceiling for ultimate comfort in any weather, this FULLY-EQUIPPED SUMMER KITCHEN (250 gallon propane tank buried in the front yard) includes a VENT HOOD system and TILE BACKSPLASH. It’s hard to decide if it’s the jewel of the backyard—or if that honor goes to the SOLAR & ELECTRIC SPA that helps to heat the POOL, or the umbrella-ready cocktail table mounted in the pool. The area was rescreened in January and some areas are double-screened, but the thing you love most about this space might be what lies just beyond the screens—a cozy sitting area that faces west, giving you an unencumbered view of the richest, most vibrant sunsets. The primary suite features a ROMAN SHOWER and CLOSET ORGANIZERS, while the guest bath has a SHOWER/TUB combo. The PAVER DRIVEWAY (artfully arranged in the intricate “I Pattern”), ROCKBED, and STACKED STONE WALLS add curb appeal. The MINI SPLIT unit and INSULATED GARAGE DOOR help keep the garage nice and cool. ELECTRIC SCREENED DOORS along with pull-down stairs are great additions for the garage. Laundry is made easy with an LG WASHER AND DRYER and a continuation of the WHITE CABINETS and GRANITE from the stunning indoor kitchen. The beauty of this home really must be seen to be believed.
