Don't miss out on this ready-to-move-in highly modified open floor plan Monte Carlo that boasts an "L-shaped" POOL! Located on a large corner lot, this 3 bedroom 2 bath with family room home has upgrades galore. Upon arrival, the beautiful landscaping catches the eye. Decorative concrete edging defines the landscape beds with quality plantings including palms and a citrus tree. An automated irrigation system supplies the entire exterior and is fed by a second water meter, a real money saver. The paver drive and walk lead to the covered and screened entry. This screening adds a level of security and makes cross-ventilation a "breeze". An open patio area is adjacent to the front entry and offers an optional location to enjoy the great Florida weather. The leaded glass front door and over-the-transom window bathe the welcoming foyer with great natural light. From the foyer, the openness of this home's central core comes into view. Directly to the left is what is traditionally the dining area which has a ceiling fan with light. The large arched double window brightens up this space. Straight ahead is the living room which has a designer ceiling fan as well as direct access to the pool area. Just off the living room located in a bay area is the dinette. The current owner is using the adjacent family room as the dining room. The flexibility of the various spaces makes this a most unique home. But the crown jewel of this home's interior is the chef-friendly kitchen. The expansive granite counter space includes a handy snack bar and granite backsplashes. The ample cabinetry includes 42" uppers with crown, banks of drawers, a cabinet pantry, and newer stainless steel appliances including a counter depth French door refrigerator. Also off the kitchen is the inside laundry room with its extra cabinetry (the washer and dryer stay for the new owners). The entire central core has diagonally positioned ceramic tile flooring. The entire south wing is home to the 2 guest bedrooms and guest bath and can be isolated from the rest of the home by using the bi-fold door in the family room. Both guest bedrooms have wood flooring, ceiling fans with light, and reach-in closets. The third bedroom has a "Murphy bed" that is disguised as a bookcase. The guest bath is in the connecting hall and has a wood vanity with sink, elongated stool, and a stall shower with a corner seat and shower door. The entire north wing is the master suite. The master bedroom has a French door to the pool area, wood floors, a ceiling fan with light, and space for your bedroom furniture. The hallway that connects the master bedroom to the master bath holds 2 walk-in closets and a linen closet. Both closets have custom organizers. The master bath has a garden tub, 2 elevated wood vanities with sculpted Corian sinks, upgraded plumbing and lighting fixtures, a privacy toilet area with a comfort-height elongated stool, a stall shower with a frosted shower door and half wall, and a bench. The rear of the home is dominated by the pool area with its large open-air "birdcage" and covered areas. The heated "L-shaped" saltwater gunite pool has steps, solar cover, lights, and security features. The pool deck has travertine tile flooring and ceiling fans with light. This home also has a 2-car attached garage with an extra golf cart garage. A handy screen door between the garage and the home's hallway can aid in cross ventilation, just like the front screened entry. Some furnishings are available.
