About this 3 bedroom 2 bath house

Talk about upgrades! Everything that could be upgraded has been upgraded. From the lighting and flooring to the cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, mechanical systems, and even the garage, virtually every inch of this home has been thoughtfully enhanced, creating a truly move-in ready home where quality and attention to detail shine in every room. Located in the gated 55+ community of Summer Bay at Grand Oaks, this home is the perfect blend of style, comfort, and easy living. The open floor plan is bright and welcoming with elegant tray ceilings, rounded corners, tile flooring throughout the main living areas, and glass French doors leading to a versatile flex room. Whether you're looking for a home office, craft room, fitness space, library, media room, or third bedroom, this flexible space is ready to fit your lifestyle. The kitchen is a standout, featuring upgraded white soft-close cabinetry, beautiful countertops, decorative backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, an upgraded range hood, and an expanded walk-in pantry that provides exceptional storage. The oversized laundry room continues the thoughtful design with additional cabinetry, a utility sink, and the washer and dryer included. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with luxury vinyl plank flooring, a tray ceiling, a custom walk-in closet, and a beautifully upgraded spa-like bath complete with dual quartz vanities, a seamless floor-to-ceiling tiled shower with built-in bench, pocket door, and linen storage. The extended guest bedroom provides extra space for visitors, while the guest bath mirrors the home's upscale finishes with quartz countertops, decorative tile accents, and a fully tiled tub and shower. The list of improvements extends well beyond the interior. Enjoy year-round living in the enclosed sunroom, relax on the oversized paver lanai, and appreciate the beauty of HOA-approved native landscaping designed for easy maintenance. Additional upgrades include a whole-house water purification system, variable-speed HVAC (approximately 2 years old), roof (approximately 2 years old), tankless water heater, smart home wiring, comfort-height toilets, sprinkler system, and an oversized two-car garage with upgraded lighting and durable Shark Coating floors. Even the systems you don't always notice have been improved, giving you peace of mind along with beautiful finishes. Life at Summer Bay at Grand Oaks is just as impressive as the home itself. Residents enjoy an exclusive 1.5-acre amenity campus featuring a resort-style pool, fitness center, clubhouse, pickleball and bocce courts, a community garden, outdoor firepit and fireplace, and an active social calendar. Homeowners also enjoy access to the Grand Oaks master amenities, including parks, walking trails, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, a dog park, and more. If you're looking for a home where the work has already been done and every upgrade has been thoughtfully completed, this one deserves a place at the top of your list.
