REDUCED BY MOTIVATED SELLERS! This DESIGNER GARDENIA home was STRETCHED at time of original build. The lanai was then RAISED AND GLASS ENCLOSED to create a wonderful SUN ROOM further expanding the home to 2570 square feet. The expanded size is great, as are the many upgrades that were done, including NEW ROOF in 2019 and FLOOR TO CEILING STACKED STONE FIREPLACE with raised hearth surrounded by built in entertainment center in the living room. A MONESSON GAS FIREPLACE with remote control that significantly reduces the need to use the central heat system during colder months. NEW CEILING LIGHTING added near fireplace in June 2022. The kitchen has UPGRADED CABINETS with GRANITE countertops, breakfast nook and WOOD FLOORS. The SPLIT BEDROOM plan allows for maximum privacy for owner and guests and offers a Guest wing with two bedrooms, BOTH WITH CLOSETS (unlike the standard Gardenia), ceiling fans and PLANTATION SHUTTERS, as well as a guest bath with tub/shower combo.
