Nestled along a canopy of heritage oaks at the edge of Paynes Prairie State Park is the prestigious Savanna Pointe gated enclave where you will find this amazing, luxurious retreat surrounded by nature with breathtaking views that change seasonally. Paynes Prairie welcomes wildlife, sandhill cranes, water birds, and stunning sunsets. Savanna Pointe is one of few local gated communities, and features uniquely designed homes about 5 miles from UF/Shands, VA Hospital, the University of Florida, shopping, dining, and entertainment venues-just 1.5 miles to I-75 for a quick ride to North Florida Hospital or Celebration Pointe. This owner/architect-designed and appointed home is a delight upon arrival. The European garden was professionally landscape-designed and installed. It is privately maintained while the HOA gardener cares for the rest of the grounds. This accessible and incomparable style of living blends the most desirable attributes of elegant, modern living. Take in the refined details, from two honed marble gas fireplaces, and wood plank flooring, to meticulously curated living spaces decorated and finished with one-of-a-kind textures/colors. As you enter the front double-door entry, you will be struck by the amazing view through the great room to the lanai and pool. A wall of 10 ft. sliding glass doors blends the indoor and outdoor spaces and opens to an expansive view of the prairie. Entertain in style with a gourmet kitchen tailored for your favorite gatherings. Begin with a 36-inch Wolf M series gas cooktop, 42-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator, Monogram Series wall ovens/microwave/convection/bake/broil, walk-in pantry, and a temperature-controlled wine room for at least 500 bottles. Move the party to your Al Fresco kitchen with a built-in gas grill, refrigerator, and sink overlooking the resort-style heated saltwater pool with a spill-over spa surrounded by travertine. The spacious lanai and pavilion are enhanced by the pool's fiber optic lighting, sun deck jets, and fountain spray creating your private oasis. The designer kitchen, with neutral finishes, overlooks the dining and great rooms and blends seamlessly with the lanai, pool, elevated spa, and Al Fresco kitchen creating a great entertainment area while bringing the outdoors in.
