Paradise Backyard & Pool | 4BR/2.5BA | 2,856 SqFt in Cedar Grove Built in 2017, this Spanish-inspired Florida home sits on a beautifully landscaped lot with swaying palms and serious curb appeal. Out back is a heated swimming pool surrounded by tropical landscaping, with a covered, colorful lanai that's ready for year-round entertaining. Lanai and pool connect to an open concept lower level by two sets of oversized sliding glass doors. Open them up and the entire lower level, lanai, and pool area become one gorgeous seamless space - perfect for entertaining, or just lounging in complete privacy. During spring and winter, this lets a cool breeze flow through the whole house. No road noise. Interior sunshades roll down to darken the open concept space for home theatre use. Tray ceilings. Large closets throughout. The kitchen is anchored by granite countertops, an island with seating, upgraded cabinetry, a pantry, and a wine fridge with built-in rack. A dedicated den or home office with double French doors offers a quiet workspace - a standout for remote professionals. The attached 3-car garage comes equipped with extra shelving and overhead storage, providing room for vehicles, tools, and projects - a rare find at this size. The first-floor master suite is private and spacious, with views looking out onto the pool and backyard. Inside you'll find tray ceilings, a walk-in closet, and an en suite bath with dual sinks, glass-enclosed shower, and granite counters. Upstairs, the second floor has its own living area along with three bedrooms, each with a dedicated closet. It's an ideal setup for kids, teens, or guests - everyone gets their own space to spread out without being on top of each other. Living room and front bedroom both have double windows. Cedar Grove itself is a well-maintained, professionally landscaped community with a pool, playground, BBQ grills, and more. The roads outside the community are low traffic to no traffic (you are often the only car on the road), adding to the peaceful feel of the neighborhood.
