This stunning home should be featured in Architectural Digest! With impeccable fit and finish everywhere you look, you can't build a home like this for this price. And even with all the beauty and refinement inside and out, the wide Pirate Harbor channel that takes you right out to the Harbor in minutes provides an enthralling view from every spot. Notice the details the moment you drive up to this 2 story Key West style home. A wide deck spans the front with accent trim added to every post and rail. And the lush landscaping surrounding the home showcases the beauty of this Florida paradise. Go up the stairs and inside you'll feel the warm ambiance of an inviting open layout with wide plank hardwood floors, plantation shutters, a custom tray ceiling with white beams and contrasting natural wood wainscoting, crown molding, 6” baseboards and a stunning circular wood staircase between the floors. Four new hurricane-rated sliding doors pocket completely out of the way so you can enjoy the wonderful postcard-perfect view beyond. And all windows were also upgraded to hurricane-rated resistance so there's no need for external shutters. At the center of the home, a gorgeous kitchen features top of the line appliances, solid maple cabinetry, subway tile backsplashes and black soapstone counters. A cooktop and stainless vent above is on one side of a center island, while guests can sit opposite and engage in conversation with the chef. Across the room is an intimate dining area with views of the tropical flowers and the water beyond. A delightful hidden office is tucked on the other side of the kitchen. From the living area you'll have an expansive back deck and extended covered area for a variety of places to relax and enjoy the gardens and waterfront beyond. The main level features an owner's bedroom with gorgeous ensuite bath and sliding doors leading out to the back deck. The spacious guest bedroom and 2nd bathroom is also ensuite when desired. On the first level a finished open area with living room, a kitchenette and 3rd bedroom/office could serve as an additional private suite for family or guests. Another full bath and laundry are down the hall and a 2 car garage with new epoxy floor is just beyond. Out back a sparkling pool is surrounded by a pavered deck and edged with colorful plants and walkways leading to the dock. Shore power, fresh water and a 10,000lb lift are ready for your boat. Ride out to the Harbor in just minutes for exceptional fishing and boating. Few communities offer such easy access to open water but among them Pirate Harbor is a secret gem. Be sure you watch the extensive video of this home and the 360 virtual tour for each room. You'll see why this is like having your own resort in paradise!
