Description
Welcome home to this immaculate Cannes model by Shea Homes, located in one of the horse capital's most desirable communities - Ocala Preserve! This home offers a generously appointed split, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, floorplan with nearly 1900sqft of open living space. Included within that footprint is an office or den area, open to the family room or easily enclosed to convert into a third bedroom. Upon arrival, stacked stone and an epoxied entryway set the tone for what is in store beyond the glass inserted front door. Once inside, you are invited to admire the bright, defined entry and tray ceiling coupled with stunning porcelain tile and a direct line of sight to the gorgeous lot backing up to a walking trail! Immediately to your right are the guest bedroom and bathroom; in the bedroom, enjoy ample natural light and sufficient storage space in the spacious closet. Guest bathroom features include granite countertops, pebble flooring and custom tiling that extends to the ceiling within the glass-encased walk-in shower. Moving forward you will find the den with endless possibilities to truly make it a "flex" space. With built-in design elements that allow flow between the den and living space, it is easy to stay connected to guests no matter where everyone is within the home. Throughout the den, living room and kitchen you will find it easy to filter the abundant natural light with beautiful plantation shutters - which also make cleaning a breeze! Beyond the den, the home opens up to the living space on the right, dining to the left and onward to the heart of the home...the kitchen! Granite countertops and stainless appliances adorn this space. Still, the real showstopper is the two-tone cabinetry in a timeless color palette - gray lowers and white uppers paired with a complimentary backsplash! With a peninsula perfect for prepping, and additional bar seating on the opposite side, this home is ideal for entertaining. As you continue through the kitchen, you will find the smart space which houses the washer and dryer, while featuring overhead and lower cabinetry, additional counter space and a utility sink - an absolute essential! Also included within this space is a desk nook area, currently being utilized as a sewing desk with even more storage on each side. Continuing forward, step into the two-car garage with high-end Swiss Trax flooring that is easy to clean, will never leave tire marks, and evenly distributes heat. Once you make your way back inside, to the left of the kitchen is the owner's suite, complete with a giant bathroom and walk-in closet of your dreams! You will also enjoy floor-to-ceiling tile and pebbled flooring in this walk-in shower, with a bench seat and glass encasement. Granite countertops cover the dual vanity and ample storage space is featured below. From the owner's suite, step onto your professionally epoxied, screen-enclosed lanai overlooking the landscaped backyard and walking trail - perfect for greeting the day as the sun rises above the horizon or bidding adieu with an evening beverage of choice. Additional upgrades in this home include a whole house Generac generator, water treatment system, crown molding in common areas and owner's suite, epoxied driveway work to be done within the next week.
