Jump on the trial head and explore the vast community of just under 800 acres, with 120 of those acres as lush preserve. With the 3 car garage, to the updated and spacious interior, open and airy spaces leading to your inviting lanai with the heated pool, this home leaves little to be desired.

The walls are a light neutral with newer paint, and the floors are a walnut hand-scraped wood-look tile through-out this stately home, which is an excellent choice for a coastal lifestyle. Inside the main areas, you are lured to the serenity of the lanai and pool area which are all oriented toward the privacy of the preserve... From the dining area there are new retractable, hurricane related all glass doors leading onto the lanai and incredible outdoor living spaces. This is perfect for entertaining with the ease of flow from inside to outside. Close-by is your wet bar to prep all your favorite drinks and/or to use as a the perfect serving area.

The breakfast nook has a huge bay window overlooking the enclosed outdoor living and pool area, perfect for enjoying quiet mornings, coffee and sunshine and quiet time and sunshine.

The family room includes a gas fireplace that is flanked by custom built-in cabinetry, has a built-in entertainment center featuring a canvas painting with a hidden tv, and floor to ceiling windows for lots of natural light. Just behind the family room, off the screened lanai, is an oversized paver deck area overlooking the preserve.

Working remotely? No problem as just off the foyer you will find a private office where you can be productive away from the main living areas. Across from the office is a full bath, just right for guests, as well as serving as the pool bathroom with a door leading out. It has just the right amount of storage for all the extras, including beach towels.

The Primary Suite is an expansive retreat of it's own with an sitting area and private access to the lanai and pool. Consistent with wonderful storage spaces, the Primary offers each with their own walk-in custom built closets, as well as their vanity spaces in the luxurious ensuite bath featuring a whirlpool tub and private walk-in shower with multiple sprayers.

This is a lovely split bedroom plan with the secondary bedrooms and the jack and jill bath on the opposite side of the home from the primary bedroom.

"I cannot put into words how easy it was to purchase my new house. There was constant communication, and I felt like Brent and his team had my back every step of the way. Everything was done online, so there was not driving back and forth, or lenghty meetings. Closing was the only real time event and it was so smoothe. I look forward to working with Brent and his team long after this sale to help keep my new house in perfect condition. Thanks so much, Brent and team!"

"My experience with NEO Home Loans was top-notch. We had a very short turnaround from property choice to closing and this team made it feel seamless. The communication throughput was proactive and timely. Brent took the time to walk me thru all of my questions thru each phase and the entire team was 5-Star. Our closing attorney (out of state), even made the comment that in here 25 years in the business, this was the best Mortgage company she has ever worked with."

"Working in the real estate business myself, I interact with dozens of lenders every month. In my experience, the best lenders are the ones who proactively communicate with their clients and the realty teams serving them. After all, communication fosters action, and keeping things moving forward is integral to a smooth closing. Brent Willis is one of those lenders. With Brent and his team, I never have to guess where we are in the financing process. I already know, because they proactively communicate every step of the way. This not only provides peace of mind, but also frees up my time because I don't have to chase anyone down for an update. Brent also does something not many lenders do anymore: he will take the time to educate clients and Realtors on the specifics of the home ownership process. Not just during the contract-to-close phase, but guidance and information for after the sale concludes. This puts him in rare company, and easy to recommend."
