As you enter this immaculate custom-built 3 bedroom/3 bath beauty, situated on a cul de sac, you will feel you are in a designer showcase, with bright sunlight capturing a wealth of architectural details & features in a 2675 sq. ft. residence that says "You're home." Designed in a contemporary, open format, the residence has linen-hued ceramic tile in the main living areas which melds to pure white walls & complex tray ceilings, while tasteful Doric columns, custom cabinetry, alcoves, & plantation shutters enhance the sense of luxury. New stainless appliances highlight the kitchen, which serves as your gateway to a spacious family room, from which you have one of several access points to the completely redone pool, with a newer high-efficiency heat pump.Although the yard is a spacious one-third acre, relaxing on the pool deck imparts a sense of seclusion as you enjoy the adjoining lake. A lanai bonus is the kitchen/casual dining area with small fridge & sink. The master bedroom includes large his & herwalk-in closets & an oversized bath. Separation for privacy is evident in the other bedrooms, with adjacent bathrooms serving each. For the handyman, a workshop area is included in the garage. Peace of mind is assured with hurricane shutter protectionsurrounding the house. Deer Creek is a secure, gated community of custom homes & 24 hr guard service.
