Behind the gates of one of Melbourne's most desirable communities, this remarkable six-bedroom residence blends grand scale, thoughtful upgrades, and resort-style living into a home that feels like your own private retreat. Recently professionally refreshed and with brand-new carpet in the bedrooms and throughout the second level, the home is ready for its next owners. Through the double-door entry, soaring ceilings and sun-filled open spaces set the tone, while a stunning new entertainment wall with a sleek electric fireplace anchors the expansive living area with undeniable sophistication. The recently updated kitchen was designed for upscale entertaining, featuring a massive island that invites family and friends to pull up a seat, premium finishes, abundant cabinetry, and a convenient pot filler above the cooktop. Walls of glass open to a spectacular screened lanai with a sparkling saltwater pool, water features, and covered outdoor living areas--the perfect backdrop for celebrations or relaxing evenings beneath the string lights. Tucked away on the first floor, the private primary retreat offers dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub, oversized shower, and dedicated vanity area. The upper level provides exceptional flexibility with additional bedrooms, a generous loft, dedicated office, and ample storage, easily accommodating remote work, studying, movie nights, or playtime. A particularly valuable feature is the home's two-story concrete-block construction--an uncommon advantage over homes that transition to wood-frame construction on the second level. Combined with spray-foam insulation, this home was designed with energy efficiency, comfort, and lasting durability in mind. Additional features include solar panels that can provide substantial monthly energy savings and a brand-new pool pump, ensuring the saltwater pool is ready for countless days of enjoyment. The property enjoys an enviable Lake Washington location convenient to everything Brevard County has to offer. As a rare bonus, both the county and HOA have approved chickens, allowing you to enjoy a touch of country living within a sought-after gated community.
