Property Description
PRICE CHANGE!! Located on a private wooded homesite in Bay Forest, this spacious, partially furnished 5 bedroom 3.5-bath home offers approx. 3,800 square feet of living space along with exceptional outdoor living areas designed to enjoy the coastal lifestyle. The curb appeal begins with a covered stone front porch, custom stone walkways, and extensive hardscaping that wraps around the home. Out back, you'll find a true outdoor retreat featuring a large deck, an expansive screened porch with sun shades, and a beautiful stone patio with sitting wall-all overlooking a peaceful wooded backdrop that provides both privacy and a natural setting rarely found in resort communities. Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer welcomes guests through a stunning stained-glass front door accented with sidelights and transom windows. Hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, crown molding, decorative trim, and wrought-iron stair railings add character throughout the home. The formal living room features a bay window, while the spacious dining room provides plenty of room for gatherings and holiday entertaining. The family room showcases a vaulted ceiling and gas fireplace with upgraded tile surround and flows into the large kitchen featuring granite countertops, tiled backsplash, stainless steel appliances, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and an oversized dining area. The first-floor owner's suite offers a tray ceiling, large walk-in closet, and private bath with soaking tub and frameless glass shower. Also on the first floor are a laundry room with cabinetry and a powder room. Upstairs, a second owner's suite, two additional bedrooms, full bath, and an oversized bonus recreation room provide ample space for family and guests. Additional features include first floor laundry room with cabinets and utility sink, a tankless water heater, lawn irrigation (with its own well and a new controller), ceiling fans throughout, a two-car garage with upgraded flooring, shelving, and workbench area, and a recently updated HVAC system and new sump pump for added peace of mind.
