Nestled in Park District of WaterColor, its exterior and interior have been meticulously repainted, showcasing a fresh, new look. With soaring ceilings, the home radiates a like-new ambiance, featuring refinished wood flooring, brand-new appliances, and elegantly selected furnishings. Boasting a proven rental history, this magnificent property is not only a luxurious coastal retreat but also a lucrative investment opportunity, making it highly appealing for discerning buyers. The thoughtful design includes a practical mudroom and laundry area on the first floor, ideal for managing sandy excursions and beach towels. Each of the two spacious bedrooms on the first level, one of which is a bunk room, offers a haven of comfort, complete with private ensuite bathrooms and walk-in closets. Ascending to the second level, the residence unfolds into a stunning open-concept space, combining the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas under a magnificent wood-lined ceiling. Abundant natural light floods in through large windows and doors, illuminating each artfully arranged space. The kitchen, recently updated, strikes a balance between modern and coastal aesthetics, featuring white cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, and high-end appliances. The master suite is an embodiment of tranquility, boasting a lofty beamed ceiling, a cozy sitting room, and a private porch with verdant views. One of the suites includes a secluded sleeping porch, perfect for savoring the refreshing coastal air. The third-floor tower offers a spectacular vantage point for admiring sunsets over WaterColor. Behind the home, a paved parking area leads to a two-car garage, which houses a nearly new golf cart. Above the garage lies a charming carriage house, complete with a kitchenette and full bath. The screened porch invites relaxation with cushioned swing seats, while the side patio offers a perfect spot for stargazing around the fire pit. This extraordinary home is a rare find for those seeking a luxurious coastal lifestyle in Florida, conveniently located near various restaurants and Club WaterColor amenities.
