Looking for the CREAM OF THE CROP? You've found it! This extremely well-maintained 3/2 home (plus den/flex space) has only had ONE owner, and is nestled within the Cypress Creek Golf & Country Club, just a MILE from the golf course! This beautifully appointed home is on a spacious QUARTER-ACRE lot and features a 3-car garage with GENEROUS storage cabinets and shelving. With thoughtful design, the main areas of the home feature 10' ceilings and crown molding to create a stylish, open airy feel enhanced by PLANTATION SHUTTERS and WOOD FLOORING. In the great room, open the FOUR-PANEL, GLASS POCKET SLIDERS to bring the outdoors in when you're entertaining or just whenever the weather is nice. The OVERSIZED primary suite is a true retreat, complete with french doors to the LARGE, SCREENED-IN PATIO, TWO WALK-IN CLOSETS, DUAL VANITIES, a large fully enclosed walk-in shower, a SOAKING TUB, and a private water closet - creating a spa-like atmosphere. The secondary bedrooms also feature walk-in closets, providing ample storage, and the secondary bathroom is equally impressive, with a walk-in shower and a convenient door to the back patio. The large kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring a CUSTOM-BUILT walk-in pantry, island with extra storage, solid surface countertops, 42" cabinets with upgraded DRAWER PULL-OUTS, a breakfast bar, and a charming eat-in area that overlooks the spacious backyard. Another set of French doors there will lead you to the back patio. Some additional highlights include a LARGE LAUNDRY ROOM with a utility sink and tons of storage space...PLUS two new, UPGRADED, DOUBLE-PANED WINDOWS on the front of the home (primary ensuite and den windows). The big ticket items have been taken care of for you....2023 ROOF....and a 2021 HVAC (serviced twice a year), and you'll appreciate the practicality of having rain gutters, hurricane shutters, and an irrigation system.
