Stunning and refined describe this remodeled 5-bed, 3-bath + bonus room pool home nestled on nearly 3/4 wooded acres in the coveted community of Kensington Park off scenic Millhopper Road! Approaching this exquisite 2-story brick home, you are greeted by meticulous landscaping and a breathtaking backdrop of majestic oaks and pines. Spanning nearly 5,000 square feet of total living space and nearly 4,000 square feet under the roof, this impressive home was designed for unparalleled luxury and comfort. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a grand foyer with a soaring 2-floor ceiling, sweeping staircase with wood banisters, exceptional architectural details, hardwood flooring, French doors opening to a study with bay window, and entryway into the great room. Featuring a wood-burning brick fireplace, custom built-in cabinets and bookcases, clerestory windows, and organic flow into the dining room with magnificent views of the picturesque pool and backyard, the great room has an inviting ambiance for both everyday living and upscale entertaining. The recently remodeled custom design chef’s kitchen is a dream with its large island/breakfast bar, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances including a top-of-the-line gas stove and double oven, pot filler faucet, enormous walk-in pantry, and French doors opening to the covered porch and pool. Off the kitchen is a huge laundry room with basin sink and storage closet. You will also find an in-law suite that includes a guest bedroom and beautifully-remodeled guest bath with quartz countertop and walk-in shower. Rounding out the main floor is an office with built-ins, and the primary suite with vaulted ceiling, French doors opening to a fenced pet yard, and an ensuite bath with 2 walk-in closets with custom shelving, split double vanities, granite countertops, walk-in shower, tub, and water closet. Upstairs is a haven, providing privacy and first-class accommodations for family members and friends. There is a full guest bath with tub and shower combo, and 3 guest bedrooms and bonus room with plush carpeting and lots of closet space. You will also discover lovely detailing like a window reading nook, custom wood paneled walls, built-ins, and a skylight. Outside, the screened covered porch, and large in-ground heated swimming pool and spa create a tropical haven for entertaining, unwinding, and just enjoying the Florida sunshine. There is also a separate fenced area for furry companions, and a playhouse in the lush expansive backyard. Recent upgrades include a new upstairs AC (2024), new tankless water heater (2024), newer pool pump and newer pool heater. Ideally located, it is a short stroll to the Hunter’s Crossing Shopping Center, Starbucks, and Devil’s Millhopper Geological State Park.
