Built in 2019 and impeccably maintained by its single, pet-free, non-smoking owner, this home feels practically brand new. The thoughtfully designed split floor plan offers both openness and privacy, with a spacious primary suite tucked away on one side, featuring a luxurious bathroom with a walk-in shower, dual vanities, and an enviable custom closet. The three additional large bedrooms are on the opposite side, with two sharing a bath and one enjoying its own private ensuite.

A separate laundry room with a sink and space for an extra fridge adds even more convenience. Natural light pours in through a stunning four-panel sliding glass door that opens to the screened-in travertine lanai, overlooking the expansive .66-acre backyard - lush, private, and surrounded by mature trees and protected green space. This home is as energy-efficient as it is beautiful, featuring paid-off solar panels that keep utility costs impressively low - the average electric bill is just $45 per month.
