Description

Enjoy Luxury Coastal Living at The Escapes at Ocean Breeze, an upscale active-adult community. This stunning, better-than-new 3-bedroom, 3-bath home, built in 2022, is tucked away on a premier cul-de-sac lot and enjoys a rare, private wooded backdrop. The sellers thoughtfully invested over $120,000 in premium builder and post-construction upgrades, enhancing both the design and functionality throughout the home. A dramatic two-story foyer with a striking skyward window welcomes you inside, complemented by wide-plank flooring that extends throughout the main living areas. A beautifully appointed formal dining room with a tray ceiling provides an elegant setting for holidays and special gatherings. Select windows are enhanced with plantation shutters, adding both style and character. The chef’s kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite countertops and backsplash, 42" shaker-style cabinetry with extended upper storage, a center island, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry offering additional storage beyond the standard cabinet-style design found in many models. A welcoming breakfast area completes the space. Just beyond the kitchen, the great room is anchored by the front side of a two-sided gas fireplace and features transom windows and a detailed tray ceiling, creating an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. The expansive primary suite showcases a tray ceiling, two walk-in closets with custom built-in organization systems, and a spa-style bath complete with granite topped dual sink vanity, a frameless glass walk-in shower with a built-in seat and pebble stone flooring. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a covered paver porch featuring a ceiling fan that extends to a sprawling patio spanning the width of the home. Highlighted by the outdoor side of the two-sided fireplace, a natural gas grill hookup, and serene wooded views, this exceptional space is perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. In addition to the main outdoor living areas, one side of the home offers a usable side yard—ideal for additional outdoor enjoyment. The first-floor guest bedroom is privately situated in its own hallway, separate from the primary suite, and is serviced by a nearby full bath featuring a quartz-top vanity and semi-frameless shower door—ideal for visitors. Ceiling fans are installed in all bedrooms for added comfort. A large, dedicated laundry room offers built-in cabinetry, generous counter space, and an integrated sink, functioning more like a well-appointed service room than a typical laundry area. The second floor provides a private and versatile retreat featuring a bedroom, full bath, living area, storage closet, and direct walk-in access to additional attic storage—ideal for a guest suite, home office, or media room. Additional highlights include Lennox two-zone heating and air conditioning, a high-efficiency air cleaner and humidifier on the first-floor system, a two-car garage with extra insulation, epoxy flooring, built-in storage cabinetry and racks, and an in-ground sprinkler system supplied by a private well.
