This exceptional renovated ranch home in Point Washington presides over a quarter-acre lot filled with mature oaks and magnificent magnolias. It's in a sought-after location close to Choctawhatchee Bay, beautiful sandy beaches and state forest trails. Recent renovations took this single-story home back to the studs and rebuilt everything from the LVP wood flooring to a new roof and gutters. Fresh paint inside and out, new lighting, new bathrooms and a gourmet kitchen. The entire siding on the back of the house was removed and three sets of French doors now connect the bright and spacious living room with the screened porch and covered barbecue area. Once the home was transformed, the owners turned their attention to the landscaping, creating a lush private wonderland for laid-back outdoor living with new lighting and outdoor spotlights. A new irrigation well pump keeps everything well-watered, even when owners are absent. The open kitchen had a complete makeover, which included relocating the HVAC to provide a pantry. As well as new cabinets, stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops, updates include a new kitchen vent fan. The laundry room has updated shelving and a useful butcher's block counter. This beautiful home has three large bedrooms and two bathrooms. California Closets provide covetous storage in the bedrooms and the newly expanded master bathroom boasts beautiful tile flooring, a twin vanity, new mirrors and more. The newly pavered driveway was widened to provide ample parking for four vehicles in front of the two-car garage. A nicely paved walkway leads to the fenced backyard and firepit patio. With no HOA, this fully renovated home enjoys an enviable location close to boat access, Grayton Beach and 30A shops and restaurants. It delivers the sort of lifestyle that dreams are made of.
