Remarks: Under contract-accepting backup offers. This is not the home you step inside and forget. From the moment you arrive, the lush tropical landscaping, manicured yard, and pond-view lot set this property apart — over $15,000 in professional landscaping and a fully fenced backyard give it a privacy and warmth that new construction rarely has. Built in 2021 and thoughtfully customized throughout, this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom two-story home sits on a quiet dead-end cul-de-sac and offers 2,738 square feet of living space in a great location — minutes from shopping, dining, and just 25 minutes to the Gulf Coast beaches. The open-concept main floor features custom built-in cabinetry in the living area, a spacious kitchen with dark espresso cabinets, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, a light filled dining room and large island with seating. A dedicated home office with French doors sits just off the main living area. All carpet has been replaced with luxury vinyl plank flooring and the staircase has been fully updated with wood treads and risers. Upstairs, the primary suite features custom picture frame molding. Additional bedrooms each carry their own personality and designer touches. A 5th bedroom with closet, added from the original loft space, adds real flexibility and lasting value over a standard floor plan. Bathrooms have been updated throughout. Outside, enjoy direct pond views, a fully fenced backyard, and sweeping water views as the neighborhood backs up to the Braden River. Tucked inside a gated community, enjoy access to a beautiful pool and pergola gathering area.
