Plot twist — she’s back, and it has nothing to do with the home or the Seller. The previous Buyer never made their escrow deposit, which means this stunning home is officially available again. Sometimes timing works in someone else’s favor, and this time, it just might be yours. From the moment you arrive, this Taylor Morrison Barbados floor plan makes an impression, showcasing elevated builder upgrades and a level of finish that truly feels like a model home. Offering over 3,400 square feet, this beautifully appointed residence features 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, a bonus room, flex space, & a 3-car garage, all set on an expansive quarter-acre homesite with no rear neighbors and peaceful pond views. From the moment you walk through the front door, you are greeted by soaring ceilings, ceramic tile flooring, an abundance of natural light, and an open-concept layout designed for both comfortable family living and effortless entertaining. At the front of the home, a flexible sitting area or secondary living space creates the perfect welcome, while the formal dining room offers a beautiful setting for parties and everyday gatherings. One of the most valuable builder selections in this home is the first-floor 5th bedroom en-suite option, chosen in lieu of an office, giving the next owner true versatility. The attached full bathroom features dual vanities and a stand-alone shower, with convenient connectivity to the main living area. The heart of the home is the upgraded luxury kitchen, featuring white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, a sit-in dinette, and added storage at the front of the oversized island. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious family room, creating the ideal layout for staying connected throughout the day. A 12-foot pocketing slider opens to the oversized screened lanai, extending the living space outdoors. With outdoor kitchen rough-ins already in place, a spacious yard with room for a pool, side-yard space for playsets, yard games, and more, this homesite offers the rare combination of privacy, views, and room to truly enjoy the Florida lifestyle. Upstairs, oak treads and risers lead you to 4 additional bedrooms, including the private owner’s retreat with two walk-in closets, dual vanities, a soaking tub, separate stand-alone shower, and its own private balcony: the perfect escape for morning coffee sunrises and a little extra space to unwind. The upstairs bonus room, currently set as a play space and entertainment sanctuary, offers another incredible living area. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom, while bedroom 4 offers another en-suite layout complete with a bay window & beautiful views of the backyard privacy. Additional builder-prepped upgrades include plumbing ready for a future whole-home water softener, prep for an upstairs laundry sink addition, and outdoor kitchen rough-ins, giving the next owner valuable infrastructure already in place. Life in Eaves Bend at Artisan Lakes brings resort-style amenities and a true neighborhood feel: clubhouse, fitness center, resort-style pool, community events & MORE!
