Nestled in the sought-after Wood Creek neighborhood, this meticulously maintained and upgraded, contemporary 3-bedroom, 3-bath pool home offers 2,363 sq ft of thoughtfully updated living space. With a brand-new roof, this residence is as reliable as it is refined. The heart of the home is a gourmet culinary experience: a kitchen enriched with beautiful butcher-block counters, High Point cabinets with custom pull-outs, and stainless KitchenAid appliances—a combination that blends functional charm with chef-ready convenience. Butcher-block countertops are celebrated for their timeless appeal, durability, knife-friendly surface, and eco-friendly origin—bringing a cozy yet elegant character to the space. Adjacent to the kitchen, the great room invites relaxation with its wood-burning/gas plumbed fireplace, vaulted ceiling, wood floors, and bespoke built-in bookcases—a true focal point that adds value and ambiance. The split plan layout offers dual primary-suite flexibility—the owner’s retreat boasts two custom-designed walk-in closets and serene bath access, while one of the other spacious bedrooms also features en-suite bath access, making the configuration ideal for guests or multigenerational living. The third bedroom also features an adjacent bathroom and gorgeous view of the pool and spacious lanai can also serve as a home office. Outdoor living is elevated to new heights with a screened-in, 16’ x 31’ salt-water pool and lanai with summer kitchen and spacious fenced-in backyard. The professionally landscaped lot features colorful gardens, a private patio, and ample space for gardens—perfectly suited for gatherings or tranquil moments. Every corner reflects quality updates—from custom bookshelves and ceramic-tile bathrooms with new hardware to thoughtful finishing touches throughout. The home includes a security system, back-up gas generator for power outages, and a large two-car garage. The home is a short three blocks from Publix, Fresh Market, Upper Crust, and Thornbrooke Village. With its blend of contemporary elegance, comfortable living, privacy, and close proximity to the Thornbrooke area, this Wood Creek jewel is truly one-of-a-kind.
