Your private oasis! Come see this well-appointed home in the desired gated community of Pelican Bay. Custom built one-story stucco home with 3-bedrooms and 2-bathrooms located on a quiet cul-de-sac. Meticulous care has been taken in the upkeep of this home. Curb appeal abounds with lush, tropical landscaping (which was recently voted Pelican Bay's Best Garden) accented by professionally designed/installed landscape lighting. An in-ground irrigation system makes maintaining the landscaping effortless. As you pull up, you will notice the newer brick paver drive/walkways and the well-maintained exterior to include a new roof and gutters. One of the walkways leads to a covered front porch and the other leads to one of two, double-wide gates, opening into a big backyard, which backs to protected forestry land and is surrounded by a custom, board-on-board, six-foot tall stained fence. Stepping inside you will discover the quality of craftsmanship this home boasts. It has been thoughtfully & tastefully updated both inside and out. The inviting, open layout provides plenty of space to gather. Beneath your feet, you will find travertine flooring in the main living areas and rich porcelain tile planking in the bedrooms. The kitchen has custom cabinets with underlighting and has been beautifully updated with a hammered-copper apron sink, new granite, and more. Just off the kitchen is a buffet area with 2 wine coolers. The dining room opens to the primary living area which offers many stylish touches, including an oversized decorator ceiling fan, an integrated entertainment center, and a stacked stone feature wall combined with a gas fireplace accentuated by a granite hearth and a living edge, cedar mantle. The primary bedroom ensuite has his & her closets and large sliding doors opening to the covered pool patio. The ensuite joins to a large bathroom with dual vanities, a jetted garden tub, a separate tiled shower, and a water closet for privacy. Two additional sizable bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the home, one with French doors leading to the covered pool patio area. Attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the finishes of this home, which features crown molding throughout the entirety of the living areas, along with plantation shutters, updated lighting, and hand finished electrical outlet covers just to name a few. An entertainer's dream awaits out back where you will find a spacious outdoor living/entertainment area with porcelain plank flooring, a "Tommy Bahama" inspired bar, a dining area, as well as a relaxing lounge area, complete with a gas fireplace and a large screen TV. All of this is contained under a large covered patio leading to a screened-in pool enclosure featuring a heated, inground saltwater pool. Like no other, the pool is bordered by tropical plants and flowers and has an extremely unique palm tree that rises up through the roof of the enclosure. Other details include built-in ceiling fans to keep cool on summer nights and dimmable ceiling lighting. A sliding barn door, plantation shutters, and privacy blinds offer enhanced privacy for gatherings. The 2-car garage has both storage cabinets and overhead storage. Additional storage space can be found in the attic and in the outdoor shed. The neighborhood amenities offer a combination tennis/pickleball/basketball court and a park located directly on the Choctawhatchee Bay. The park has a swimming platform, boat access and picnic area. Less than 3 miles to shopping, restaurants, and Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital. Low HOA fees, and no short-term rentals allowed. All dimensions and information herein are deemed reliable but should be verified by the buyer. You don't want to miss out on this opportunity to make this your home!
