House buy in Matoaka Florida

A private, gated neighborhood surrounds this beautiful open-style home with high ceilings and attention to detail. Approaching the house, you'll see mature landscaping, orchids growing in the trees, and a gardenia bush in full bloom. The side-load garage and private driveway allow for guest parking with easy access to the front porch. As you walk through the double front doors, you'll see the custom pool with custom waterfall and the private, heavily landscaped back view. The flexible split plan includes 3 bedrooms, 2 offices, a large upstairs bonus room, and an oversized 3 car garage with workbench and Garage Tek wall storage system. The spacious second office has an ensuite full bathroom, so adding a door would turn it into a 4th bedroom suite. The living room, with double-sided fireplace, niches, art lights, and custom touches is so inviting! The dining room has a view of the front landscaping, a wall for large art, and a pass-through buffet to the kitchen. Spacious counters with lots of work space create a good gathering space, and it's open to the family room, breakfast nook, and view of the pool. Custom paint and wall textures add to the special feel of this home. A private owner's suite is an oasis, with access to the pool and lanai, views of the lush landscaping, double sinks and double walk-through showers. The guest wing is very private and features new wood-look tile flooring. Outdoor living is encouraged! Two covered lanai spaces, the pool and sound of the falling water, custom lighting for evening entertaining, and a broad outdoor food serving bar with gas hook-up all provide the space and options you'll love! This is a unique gated community with easy access to shopping, airport, Ringling Museum of Art and Mansion, USF/New College, restaurants, and the other amenities you need on a weekly basis.
