Property Description

Custom-Built Coastal Retreat on an Exceptional .89-Acre POND FRONT Lot in Eagle's Watch! Meticulously crafted in 2019 by esteemed builder Jernigan Homes, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 3-full bath coastal home in the premier gated community of Eagle's Watch was designed with luxury, quality, privacy, and effortless living in mind. Set on a RARE COMBINED double lot, this property offers an exceptional sense of space and privacy. The lot backs to a stunning, 8-foot-deep cypress pond, creating a peaceful and picturesque natural backdrop. The large lot may also be subdivided, with the potential to create a valuable .48-acre vacant parcel that could be sold separately, offering a unique opportunity for added value. From the welcoming rocking chair front porch, step into a light-filled foyer featuring beautiful light wood flooring that continues throughout the main living areas, office, and primary suite. A bright front-facing office offers a transom window, plantation shutters, and an impressive wall of custom built-in bookcases. Across the spacious foyer, a light-filled guest bedroom is conveniently located near a hallway bath featuring a freestanding tub and tile flooring. The foyer flows seamlessly into the inviting great room, where coffered ceilings, a gas fireplace framed by custom built-ins, recessed TV niche, and expansive windows create a warm and elegant gathering space with beautiful views of the patio and backyard. The gourmet kitchen is a true showstopper, featuring gorgeous granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a large center island, stainless steel appliances, and a generous pantry. The adjacent breakfast nook opens directly onto the screened porch, making indoor-outdoor entertaining a breeze. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat, offering tranquil backyard views, a spacious walk-in closet, and a luxurious en-suite bath with a custom tiled shower with bench, plus dual vanities. A conveniently located laundry room offers two entrances, including direct access from the primary suite. Adding even more flexibility, the large, private upstairs bedroom includes a full bathroom and walk-in access to the attic. Additional highlights include a two-car side-entry garage and ample off-street parking. For added convenience and value, the sellers are including the kitchen refrigerator, garage refrigerator, washer, and dryer! Outside, the backyard is a true nature lover's oasis. The owners have thoughtfully created a park-like setting filled with flowering plants and beautiful landscaping that changes with the seasons. With the cypress pond as your backdrop, you may spot herons, owls, and even a bald eagle right from your own backyard. NOT in a flood zone.
