Welcome to this exceptional Craftsman-inspired residence, where timeless design meets modern luxury in one of Starkey Ranch's most desirable settings. Built in 2018 and situated on nearly a quarter-acre homesite backing to peaceful conservation, this beautifully appointed home offers privacy, upscale finishes, and direct access to the natural beauty surrounding the Starkey Wilderness Preserve. Offering 3,320 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the home features five spacious bedrooms, four full bathrooms, a dedicated office or flex room, an additional workspace nook, and an oversized upstairs bonus room designed to fit today's lifestyle. At the center of the home is an impressive chef's kitchen that seamlessly blends beauty and function. Custom 42-inch maple cabinetry with crown molding, decorative accents, and a furniture-style island pair perfectly with elegant quartz countertops and a stylish glass tile backsplash. Premium KitchenAid stainless steel appliances include a natural gas five-burner cooktop, built-in wall oven with convection microwave, French door refrigerator, dishwasher, and a professionally vented range hood. A reverse osmosis filtration system and an expansive walk-in pantry with custom built-in organization complete this outstanding culinary space. The first floor and all bathrooms are finished with durable wood-look porcelain tile, while the upstairs showcases luxury laminate flooring with plush carpeting in the Jack-and-Jill bedrooms. Designer tray ceilings throughout the home create an open welcoming atmosphere, and matching cabinetry in every bathroom provides a cohesive, high-end aesthetic. Outdoor living is just as impressive. Sliding glass doors lead to an extended screened lanai overlooking tranquil conservation views, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying Florida's year-round sunshine. Professionally designed landscaping and lush St. Augustine grass further enhance the home's curb appeal.
