Welcome to the Veranda neighborhood within The Peninsula on the Indian River Bay, a premier, amenity-rich coastal community cultivated by refined living and natural beauty. Residents enjoy access to resort-style amenities, including a Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, private bay beach, scenic walking trails, and preserved wetlands, all set across more than 800 acres of meticulously maintained grounds. This exceptional Catalina model, offering over 3,400 heated square feet, is ideally positioned on a picturesque garden circle, highlighted by a welcoming and expansive front courtyard with tranquil views.

Inside, the open-concept layout is enhanced by 9-foot ceilings, recessed lighting, and elegant double crown molding throughout the main level. The gourmet kitchen is designed to impress, featuring 42-inch cabinetry, new stainless steel appliances, upgraded granite countertops, double wall ovens, a gas cooktop, and an oversized breakfast bar with ample prep space. The adjacent dining area comfortably accommodates large gatherings, while three sets of French doors seamlessly connect the interior to the screened porch. The main level also offers a flexible floor plan, including a formal living room with a gas fireplace and custom built-ins, a study (or optional fifth bedroom), and an additional room that can serve as a family room or formal dining space. A powder room and mudroom provide convenient access to the attached two-car garage. In addition to the garage, the property includes two deeded parking spaces, offering a total of six parking spots. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features 9-foot ceilings, recessed lighting, a ceiling fan, and an exceptionally large walk-in closet. The luxurious en-suite bath includes a double vanity, soaking tub, and a generously sized tiled shower with seating. Two additional guest bedrooms share a full bath, complemented by a loft area and a full laundry room with utility sink. The third level serves as a versatile retreat, complete with a full bath and closet, ideal as a fourth bedroom, guest suite, or expansive bonus/game room. Recent upgrades add significant value and peace of mind, including a new HVAC system (with added dehumidifier), new hot water heater, updated flooring throughout much of the home, new toilets, blinds, ceiling fans, refreshed interior paint, and enhanced landscaping. A standout feature is the conditioned crawl space with interior access, offering substantial storage with a finished concrete floor.
