Welcome Home to your 2022 CUSTOM and EXTENDED Begonia model Designer home located in the sought after Village of St. Johns with multiple upgrades situated on a corner lot just minutes from Brownwood Paddock Square. This property ticks all the boxes and feels like home from the moment you walk in. This custom 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom HOME is larger than the standard Begonia Model as all rooms on the right side of the home have been stretched 2 feet including the lanai. The home has been METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED and is only 4 years old, so why wait to build when this home is ready NOW?! This is an OPEN CONCEPT, SPLIT BEDROOM FLOOR PLAN featuring wood look TILE THROUGHOUT the home (sellers currently have a CUSTOM designed AREA RUG in the living room / dining room which can be removed easily if not wanted). This designer home has 10 foot ceilings. The front entry includes a secure HEAVY DUTY wire mesh screen door. The spacious Kitchen offers TILE BACKSPLASH , with QUARTZ COUNTER TOPS, a SOLAR TUBE with optional night light, WOOD CABINETS, STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES including a stainless steel FARMHOUSE style sink, a GAS RANGE, and eat-in Kitchen space. The adjoining dining area has plenty of room for visiting family and friends. Just past the dining area is the spacious Living Room with SLIDING GLASS doors that fully retract out of view and lead you out to your extended screened in lanai. There is crown molding in the recently painted living room dining room, kitchen and primary suite. The primary suite features a COFFERED CEILING, his and hers walk-in closets, an ensuite with a vanity, a TILED WALK IN SHOWER and a JETTED WALK IN TUB. Two additional bedrooms and a full guest bathroom are thoughtfully positioned on the other side of the home. All three garages have been extended two feet forward and the attic access includes pull down stairs to allow easy access to the storage above. The home also has a TANKLESS WATER HEATER, A NOVA WHOLE HOUSE WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM, a PAVER WALK-WAY ALONG THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HOME BACK TO THE LANAI, WHOLE HOUSE RAIN GUTTERS, AND MORE! Sellers are also in the process of re-sodding the yard which includes a 1 year warranty. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION, a short distance from BROWNWOOD PADDOCK SQUARE, where shopping, dining, live nightly entertainment and community activities are easily accessible by car or golf cart. Also near-by (a 10 min. walk) is THE NATIVES AT LAKE OKAHUMPKA, a water-front restaurant and newly built boardwalk overlooking the lake. There are numerous championship and executive golf courses nearby as well.
