The spacious great room features a vaulted ceiling, stone-front gas fireplace flanked by custom built-ins with lighting, integrated surround sound, and uninterrupted views of the course and treeline—no neighboring homes in sight. Just beyond is a custom-built solarium that opens to an expansive paver courtyard, creating the perfect setting for outdoor enjoyment. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream with cherry cabinetry, granite countertops finished with a bull nose edge, a classic subway tile backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances including Profile double ovens and a 5-burner gas cooktop.

The owner’s suite is thoughtfully expanded with a cozy bay window sitting area, private courtyard access through French doors, tray ceiling, twin walk-in closets, a frameless glass shower, granite dual sink vanity, and a makeup station.Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are positioned on the opposite side of the home for guest privacy. A dedicated study and powder room sit just off the foyer, and a main-level laundry room provides easy access to the garage. Upstairs, a spacious finished bonus room with its own HVAC system, full bath, walk-in closet, and built-in lighting and speakers offers flexibility as a guest retreat, media room, or hobby space. The home includes three flat-screen TVs, a smart irrigation system, and Alexa-enabled controls for the security system, thermostat, irrigation, and select lighting—providing a seamless, smart home experience. The Peninsula on the Indian River Bay boasts a Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course and much more—every detail thoughtfully designed to fit every lifestyle. Enjoy a meal at the Terrace Grille or relax on the scenic beach and pier. The clubhouse offers dining, meeting rooms, billiards, and more. For fitness and relaxation, residents have access to both indoor and outdoor pools, a wave pool, state-of-the-art gym, professional tennis facility, basketball court, and full-service spa. Enjoy the outdoors by strolling the boardwalk trails and nature center along Lingo Creek.
