Built in 1996 by Gerten Builders as the "Sanibel" Model Home, this MASTER-ON-MAIN, north-facing, 5-bedroom, 4-bath former builder's showcase has a truly unique history - it has never been sold or occupied by a family. Used solely as the builder's office since 1996, the home remains remarkably preserved, with cabinetry, hardwoods, tile, and walls that still feel as fresh as the day they were completed. A dramatic two-story foyer opens to a soaring brick fireplace framed by oversized windows and a striking catwalk overlooking both the foyer and family room. The formal dining room and front living room (or office) sit gracefully on either side of the entry, creating a welcoming and functional layout. The expansive kitchen features a generous island and a bright breakfast area surrounded by windows - truly the heart of the home. Nearby, a large mudroom and laundry area provide excellent storage and everyday convenience. The main floor primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a spa-like bathroom with dual vanities. An additional main-level bedroom (or second office) offers flexibility, complete with its own closet and access to a second full bath on the main floor. Upstairs, you'll find an oversized bedroom with ensuite bath and walk-in closet (a true second or even third master suite), plus two additional bedrooms that share a spacious Jack & Jill bath. With both a main-floor primary suite, a main-floor guest suite, and an upper-level suite, the layout accommodates large families, multi-generational living, or frequent guests with ease. The 2,588 SF English basement is plumbed for a bath and ready to be finished to your vision. Additional highlights include a three-car garage, north-facing orientation, and a driveway opening onto the quiet Emporia Court cul-de-sac. Recent updates: Roof and skylight replaced in 2024, sump pump in ~2021. All other mechanicals date to 1996 but have been barely used.
