Lake views, effortless outdoor entertaining, and more time to enjoy the SweetBay lifestyle--welcome to 2417 Rushes Avenue. Located in a lock-and-leave phase where the HOA covers landscape maintenance and irrigation, this coastal home offers easy everyday living. Start your morning with coffee on the covered front porch overlooking the lake. Inside, bright, open living and dining spaces connect to a kitchen featuring Shaker-style cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a herringbone backsplash, and an island with bar seating. Three bedrooms plus a lake-view study with its own walk-in closet offer a flexible layout, with the study able to function as a fourth bedroom. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a private bath with a glass-enclosed tiled shower. The oversized 2.5-car carport doubles as a spacious covered entertaining area, connecting directly to the patio and featuring electrical provisions for a TV. From game-day gatherings to outdoor dinners, there's room to make the most of coastal evenings. A separate storage room keeps bikes, paddleboards, and beach gear organized... and with the HOA handling landscaping and irrigation, you can save that space for recreation instead of lawn equipment. Beyond your doorstep, SweetBay invites you to fill your days with golf cart rides, scenic walks, bike rides, poolside afternoons, and sunsets along North Bay. Community pools, parks, playgrounds, a sports court, trails, and bay access provide plenty of ways to get outside, whether you enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water. Farmers markets, concerts in the park, seasonal celebrations, and resident gatherings create opportunities to connect with your new neighbors and enjoy an active community. The Publix-anchored Town Center brings groceries, Starbucks coffee, dining, shopping, and everyday conveniences right into the neighborhood just a short walk or golf cart ride away. Looking ahead, SweetBay's planned future marina adds another exciting dimension to the community's coastal vision. With lake views, versatile indoor and outdoor spaces, and less yard work on your calendar, 2417 Rushes Avenue gives you more freedom to enjoy everything that makes life in SweetBay so special.
