Spectacular Custom home in the desirable Homesteads of Saddlewood! This property on a Cul de Sac backs up to conservation land for added privacy. Built in 2013 this Mediterranean Style home has high-end finishes and amenities that make it a standout from typical homes of the area. A courtyard lined with fragrant Magnolia meets you as you approach the front porch with elegant arches and wood ceiling. Thought went into every detail including the American Clay, Loma (TM) finish on the Gallery wall just inside the front door. A preview of the fine appointments of the rest of the home, the Clay finish is seen again on the wall surrounding the dual fuel (wood or gas) Fireplace in the Great Room. Here, Cathedral Ceilings and skylights are punctuated by exposed beams and accent lighting. The Great Room is also home to a Multimedia Closet and built-in Cabinets. Striking architectural elements are also seen in the Kitchen with reclaimed brick backsplash and Farmhouse sink with both marble and granite countertops. The Cabinets are solid wood with 42″ uppers with crown molding, and the Cabinets on the opposite side of the Gallery wall have glass doors and lighting. On the Gallery side of the wall, there are stained glass “windows” which share the warmth of the accent lighting from inside the cabinets. Commercial grade appliances include a gas, 5 Burner Wolf cooktop; an electric Viking Professional Oven; Bosch Dishwasher; and a Sub-Zero Refrigerator with a Sub-Zero 2 Drawer Freezer. There is a walk-in Pantry with Swedish shelving. The Dinette features Sliding Doors to the Lanai and Pool. A Dry Bar with a Wine Cooler is located in the Formal Dining Room. This space is nicely appointed with Plantation Shutters, Wood Cabinets, and Granite Countertops. It was previously used as a Billiard Room. The generously sized Master Suite is outfitted with a power curtain rod and a walk-in closet with custom shelves and drawers. The floors are heated in the Master Spa Bathroom which features a Jetted Bath Tub and a Roman Shower with two showerheads. A transom window over the Double Vanities and Mirrors provides natural light while a power window shade provides privacy for the Jetted Tub. Opposite the Master Suite are Bedrooms 2 & 3, and the second Full Bathroom. This part of the home was configured to facilitate the addition of a Fourth Bedroom. The entire home has Porcelain Tile. Every closet has wood shelving. In the Great Room 24 feet of Pocket Sliding doors on the corner allow the living space to flow onto the Lanai and open to the Outdoor Living Room and Outdoor (dual fuel) Fireplace. The Outdoor Kitchen is just around the corner and is pre-plumbed for gas appliances. A Heat Pump makes for year-round use of the “Saltwater” Pool and the spacious Lanai is pre-wired for a Hot Tub near the Master Suite. The Three Car Garage includes a workbench and plenty of shelving, as well as a 50-amp service for an electric car or RV. A second location is pre-wired for another 50-amp service. The Garage is also pre-plumbed for a Solar Water Heater. Energy sources include an 11 KW standby Generator fueled by a 250-gallon propane tank and a 7 KW Tesla Solar Power System. This custom home has all the perks of modern convenience yet is situated on a nature preserve. You can relax sitting by the outdoor fireplace or swimming in the pool enjoying the wildlife in your backyard. This inviting home is ready and waiting for you!
