Oh Boy, What a Winner! A Beautifully Remodeled Villa! Doubly enhanced by its' exceptional private, pond views! See Professional interior/exterior photos on "tour" tab. Enveloped in an oasis of botanical garden foliage, this delightful villa has an inviting, front courtyard with wrought iron gate & brick pavers. It is also distinguished by the more architecturally appealing Side, 2 car garage w/ an oversized driveway for easy maneuvering & room for additional parking. As you approach the entry, you will note the glassed/screened security door that opens to the cheerful, red paneled, front door. Once inside, you will immediately appreciate that fresh feeling of newly painted neutral walls & gorgeous, large 20 inch tile floors on the diagonal flowing in the main living areas (carpet in 2 of the 3 bedrooms). What's more, that messy, expensive job of removing popcorn ceilings has already been thankfully accomplished, providing you w/ clean, skip trowel ceilings throughout! The vaulted ceiling in the Great Room & the abundance of windows brings in the tropical ambiance so those enchanting lagoon style, pond views are front & center! You'll be so pleased with the splendid remodeled kitchen, open & well laid out, featuring handsome wood cabinetry, thick granite countertops, stone tile back splash, recessed lighting & stainless steel appliances. Classy, designer chandelier with dimmer capacity, hangs in the dining area where a large dining room table can be accommodated. The Florida/Sun room has LED lights & a beadboard paneled ceiling for added character which coordinates perfectly w/ the two, contemporary teak toned ceiling fans on remote. The sliding glass doors stack to each side for a wide, expansive opening out to the large screened, brick paver porch to further enjoy the wonderful symphony of nature..... like egrets walking the water edge, turtles sunning on rocks & those happy crickets making their sweet melody! The big master suite also enjoys those pretty views & has good closets including sizable walk-in. Second bedroom looks out to the front courtyard & has California style built-in closet.
