Beautifully designed and very well maintained, this upgraded five-bed home with carriage house and three-car garage built by John Brown of Gulfview Construction has a stunning outdoor living area with fireplace and water feature. The saltwater lagoon pool takes center stage with a bubbling spillover spa, restful cabana and a covered porch with summer kitchen, ice maker and grill. Screened by mature trees in a conservation area, the quarter-acre lot is perfect for outdoor Florida living. The main entrance to the home is through a screened front porch. Step into the entrance foyer with sawn oak flooring leading the way into one of several sitting rooms, this one with plantation shutters and an adjoining wet bar. The newly updated upscale kitchen is filled with stainless appliances including a six-burner stove range with double oven and a Miele coffee/cappuccino maker. Lit by a trio of pendular lights, the extensive island doubles as a breakfast bar to complement the adjoining dining area. There’s ample storage throughout the home, including a walk-in pantry and laundry. The first-floor master suite is a self-contained haven with its own fireplace and doors to a private porch revealing pool views. Twin vanities with copper sinks and a clawfoot tub feature in the master bath while sliding doors conceal his-and-hers walk-in closets. The family sitting room with fireplace extends into the shady rear porch. Upstairs, the home has many more surprises including a landing with office nook, a bunk room and a generous guest bedroom with ensuite bath and balcony access. Stairs lead up to the sprawling attic space that has huge potential. Rounding off the home there’s a long driveway leading to the garage. With built-in cabinets, it’s a dream workshop or storage space for vehicles, bikes and watersports equipment. The adjacent guest house has its own private entrance and includes a bedroom, bathroom and sitting area. All this comes with amazing WaterColor amenities nearby. Families will appreciate Camp WaterColor, multiple pools, tennis, sports courts, bike trails and a fully equipped boathouse on Western Lake. For those who want more, there’s an exclusive Beach Club with pool and dining terrace for enjoying the ultimate views over the Gulf of Mexico.
