Remarks: Opportunities like this are increasingly rare in Willowbend. Offering over 3,180 square feet, this Lee Wetherington-built residence delivers exceptional scale, thoughtful architecture, and a preserve setting backing directly to Oscar Scherer State Park. With no rear neighbors and expansive natural views, the home offers privacy and tranquility while remaining minutes from beaches, dining, and cultural destinations. The interior lives large and light-filled, centered around a dramatic great room with a 12-foot double-tray vaulted ceiling that establishes an immediate sense of volume and architectural presence. The open floor plan allows spaces to flow comfortably for everyday living and entertaining, with generous room sizes, flexible living areas, and a second-floor bonus retreat that adds versatility while preserving the ease of main-level living. Built by Lee Wetherington in 2005, the home reflects enduring construction quality, balanced proportions, and a layout designed for longevity. This home stands out not by excess size, but by proportion, preserve setting, and livability—offering a strong foundation for personalization and long-term value within one of Willowbend’s most private settings. Located in the maintenance-free Willowbend community, the lifestyle is intentionally simplified. HOA services include landscaping, irrigation, cable, and internet, supporting a lock-and-leave approach without sacrificing space or privacy. Community amenities include a resort-style pool, fitness center, and recreational spaces within a well-established, deed-restricted neighborhood. For buyers who value build quality, natural views, and compelling price/square foot positioning, this residence presents a rare opportunity in Willowbend—best experienced in person.
