One or more photos may be virtually staged. Where luxury meets innovation. Welcome to one of Tallahassee's most thoughtfully upgraded smart homes, where cutting-edge technology, energy independence, and timeless design come together in one exceptional property. Built in 2023, this home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a dedicated office with custom built-ins, and over 2,600 square feet of beautifully designed living space in The Hammock at Oak Grove. From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the open-concept floor plan, engineered hardwood flooring, abundant natural light, and designer finishes throughout. The gourmet kitchen serves as the heart of the home with an oversized island, extensive cabinetry, walk-in pantry, and seamless flow into the living and dining areas—perfect for everyday living and entertaining. A private office with custom built-in cabinetry creates the ideal work-from-home space, while spacious secondary bedrooms and generous storage make this home as functional as it is beautiful. What truly sets this home apart is its impressive smart home and energy-efficient technology package. A roof-mounted solar panel system works in conjunction with a Tesla Powerwall to provide quiet, whole-home backup power during outages. Even better, the system intelligently monitors weather forecasts and automatically charges before severe storms, giving you peace of mind when it matters most. The SPAN Smart Electrical Panel allows you to monitor energy consumption, control individual circuits remotely, and optimize your home's efficiency directly from your smartphone. Electric vehicle owners will appreciate the convenience of two Tesla Wall Connectors, while the Waterdrop Reverse Osmosis System delivers purified drinking water directly from a dedicated kitchen faucet. Throughout the home, Wi-Fi connected smart appliances, including a smart washer, can be monitored and controlled remotely. Smart lighting allows voice control through Siri, and the integrated security system uses intelligent automation to activate exterior lighting when cameras detect activity—creating a home that's as secure as it is convenient. Outside, enjoy the covered back porch overlooking the backyard, all within one of Tallahassee's most desirable communities featuring walking trails, sidewalks, and green spaces. Located in the highly sought-after Hawks Rise, Deerlake, and Chiles school zones, this home offers an unmatched combination of luxury, efficiency, technology, and everyday comfort.
