Virtually Staged. Over an acre in Englewood Gardens with a resort-style pool, a pond, a barn with an apartment, and a solar system that is paid for. This 5 bedroom, 3 bath home has 3,096 square feet of living space on a 1.21 acre lot that runs 526 feet deep, with no HOA. The big ticket items are done. Metal roof in 2020. Pool cage in 2020. A/C in 2023. All of the sewer lines have been relined. Impact glass throughout the home. In 2022 the owners added a 29 kW solar system with 33 kWh of battery backup, and it is owned outright, so there is no lease or loan to take over. Leaded glass double doors open to a foyer with a built-in bench and cubbies. Wood-look tile runs through the main living areas. The living room opens to a 27 foot dining room with two chandeliers and glass doors out to the pool. The kitchen has white shaker cabinets, stone counters, stainless appliances, a wood range hood, a pantry, and a breakfast bar. The split floor plan gives the primary suite its own side of the home, with a walk-in closet and dual sinks. There is also a 24x25 bonus room and an inside laundry room with plenty of shelving. Out back is where this property stands apart. This is the party house. The screened, heated saltwater pool has a rock waterfall grotto, a slide, a bridge, and a sun shelf, and it is the pool the whole neighborhood will want to come over to. The outdoor kitchen and bar with stone counters sits under cover right beside it, perfect for hosting, with an outdoor shower close by. The huge paver pool deck has room to have everybody over for the holidays. Past the cage, the yard runs back to about 60 feet of pond frontage. A two-story barn with an apartment and an office adds room for guests, hobbies, or storage. The oversized attached garage and paver driveway leave space for boat parking. Owners in Englewood Gardens are eligible to join the Englewood Gardens Beach Club for an additional fee. Membership includes access to Englewood Beach with member parking, bay access with a boardwalk and dock, picnic tables, a gazebo with grills, and a clubhouse members can rent for private events.
