When heading down a new path, the journey becomes infinitely more pleasurable when your destination is this well-appointed, casually elegant, and welcoming Halvorson-built custom home. Rife with curb appeal, mature and meticulously maintained lush tropical landscaping surrounds a distinctive circular paver driveway that marries practicality with aesthetic beauty, providing a timeless and elegant greeting to all who arrive. Bringing nature inside via seamless indoor-outdoor connections was paramount in the design of this home. The front entry yields a clear sightline to the lanai, with its sparkling pool and tranquil golf course view just beyond. The home's thoughtfully designed spaces evolve visually and meld seamlessly with a neutral color palette that promotes an aura of calm, resulting in a clean, uncluttered look. The spacious great room, a natural gathering place for friends and family, is doused in soothing natural light from end to end and is highlighted by voluminous tray ceilings, further accentuated by subtle uplighting. Expansive sliders gracefully integrate the indoor and outdoor living areas, effectively capturing the essence of year-round al fresco Florida living. The oversized lanai provides an all-season style with ample room to create a comfy seating area that is convenient and easily accessible to the residence, resulting in a gathering spot replete with privacy and a serene view. Marine grade cabinetry, a built-in beverage chiller, and a unique 'leathered' granite countertop blend form and function while adding a touch of elegance to the outdoor entertaining area. A light, airy feel prevails in the kitchen, where wood cabinetry accentuated with glass inlays and accent lighting is paired with granite countertops and an attractive tile backsplash highlighted with undercabinet lighting. A Kenmore Elite stainless steel appliance package makes food preparation a pleasure, while two pantry closets provide ample storage, and a large raised breakfast bar provides comfortable seating for eight. Relaxation is encouraged by the sumptuous Primary suite, which opens to the pool through sliding doors. Its ensuite bathroom is a spa-inspired space with plenty of stone, sunlight, and storage. Highlights include a walk-in shower beautifully accented with tile, a relaxing soaking tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in closet. Privacy is ensured for guests, with two bedrooms and a shared bath outfitted with a generous walk-in shower.
