Elevated coastal living awaits where refined design and effortless living come together. Thoughtfully enhanced beyond its original construction, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath Craftsman-style home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the quality and peace of mind of a newer home with the elevated finishes and designer-inspired details already in place. From the moment you enter, the home's open concept design, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and beautiful Craftsman-style chair rail molding create an inviting sense of scale and timeless elegance. The spacious living area is anchored by a gas fireplace and flows seamlessly into a stunning chef's kitchen, designed with entertaining in mind. A generous 9-foot island, farmhouse sink, stainless steel Bosch appliances, and walk-in pantry create a space that is as beautiful as it is functional. The luxurious primary suite offers a private retreat with direct access to the screened-in back porch, a spacious walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a zero-entry shower, soaking tub, and private water closet. A dedicated office provides a quiet and polished workspace, while the spacious bonus room with its own half bath offers exceptional flexibility for guests, entertaining, hobbies, or a second living space. The thoughtful enhancements continue throughout the home. Craftsman-style chair rail molding extends through the foyer, hallways, and staircase, while upgraded lighting and custom accent walls in every bedroom and the office add distinctive character and a designer-inspired aesthetic. Additional cabinetry in the laundry room and upgraded closet shelving help provide additional storage. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with the screened-in porch offering a private setting to relax and entertain. Large sliding doors provide an elegant connection between the interior and outdoor living spaces with French doors connecting you to the beautifully landscaped backyard. The professionally refreshed landscaping includes added privacy bushes, new mulch, and a dedicated concrete slab for the trash enclosure. The oversized 2-car garage is both attractive and functional, featuring an epoxy floor, washable paint on the walls, convenient exterior exit door, and designated areas for hanging tools and organizing equipment.
