If your list of 'must haves' has had to make compromises, wait no longer - this home has everything. A stunning, STRETCHED Gardenia with rear privacy close to Brownwood, the upgrades are almost too numerous to mention. You'll love the cul-de-sac location as you drive up - the curb appeal is so fine, thanks to professional landscaping of palms and shrubs, and the installation of raised stone beds and pavers on the driveway and walkway, plus professional lighting that illuminates the home at night. As you enter, the foyer, you will immediately sense the elegance and spaciousness of the home. To the right, the kitchen will stun you - all of the appliances have been upgraded -- a Bosch induction cooktop is as good as it gets, plus double Bosch wall ovens (both convection capable and one also is the microwave), Bosch super-quiet dishwasher, and a Samsung top-of-the-line refrigerator with all of the bells and whistles including wi-fi capability. Abundant, custom cabinetry is finished in a warm cherry, and LED lighting above and below the wall cabinets really make them pop. The final touches are the upper-grade granite counters and gleaming diagonal tile floors. Such room for guests! The counter seats as many as four, PLUS there is a seating area (now a cookbook display / study) for a table and chairs for 4-6 additional guests. Returning to the foyer and entering the living room, you'll see why the Gardenia floor plan is the runaway favorite of the Designer homes in The Villages - a super-flexible living and dining room space adjoins the kitchen so that you can entertain your guests, and the STRETCHED lanai beyond is FOUR FEET deeper and TWO FEET WIDER than standard, and has been enclosed with a 'mini split' HVAC for year-round use. Custom millwork throughout this home includes 5.25'' baseboard, CROWN MOLDING and custom window cornices, and the mood in the home is made particularly cheerful by the addition of four solar tubes. The master bedroom is tucked away to the right of the home and features the ROMAN SHOWER, commode privacy, dual sinks and dual walk-in closets. The guest rooms are diagonally across from the master, in the front of the home to the left as you enter, and have been STRETCHED (there's that word again!) two feet, yielding exceptional space. The third bedroom does not have a closet. The laundry room (on the way to the garage) is spacious with abundant cabinetry for additional storage. The STRETCHED (again?!) garage is FOUR FEET deeper than standard, and so is the cart garage (total approximately 27 x 27 feet). Outside, custom landscaping surrounds the home, and privacy in the rear is assured by a landscaped wall which backs up to The Baker House, a Historic Preservation property owned and managed by the City of Wildwood. All of this literally minutes to Brownwood and Paddock Square by cart - its the best of all worlds - hurry before this one is gone! Tax amount in this listing shows ad valorem taxes only.
