Description

Dreaming of living on a championship golf course in The Villages? This stunning Bougainvillea Designer home offers golf-front living on hole #1 of the Hibiscus championship golf course at Cane Garden, just a short walk from Country Club dining and the golf pro shop. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be welcomed by the bright, open floor plan, elegant crown molding throughout, and tasteful updates that make this home truly special. There's even room to add a pool, giving you the option to create your own private retreat. This meticulously maintained home boasts distressed hand-scraped wood laminate flooring in the main living areas, while the three bedrooms feature newer carpeting (Dec 2021) for added comfort. The lanai, birdcage, and walkway are finished with beautiful flagstone, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. The kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring quartz countertops, backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, including a brand-new gas range (Dec 2024) and a new dishwasher (July 2024). The large island provides additional seating, making it a perfect space for entertaining. The adjacent dining area easily seats 4-8, with room for extra barstools at the island. The living room is bright and spacious, featuring a vaulted ceiling and plenty of seating. Whether you're hosting guests or relaxing, this space is both stylish and inviting. For additional indoor living, the Florida Room offers a cozy retreat, perfect for unwinding with a book or watching your favorite shows. The master bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed and dresser, while the two walk-in closets provide abundant storage. The private master bath includes a walk-in shower with a bench and dual sinks for added comfort. The guest wing offers two additional bedrooms and a full bath, which can be closed off for privacy with a pocket door. The second bedroom comfortably fits a queen-size bed, while the third bedroom is currently set up with a king-size bed but can also be transitioned into two twin beds, making it ideal for hosting family and guests. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a charming screened-in lanai and birdcage dining area, where you can enjoy picturesque golf course views while sipping your morning coffee or winding down in the evening. The enhanced landscaping adds to the home's curb appeal, featuring palm trees, rock-filled beds, and vibrant hibiscus plants. This home has been well cared for and thoughtfully updated, including a new roof (2021), new garage doors and openers (2022), new lanai screening and a brand-new birdcage (2020), new front porch railing (2020), and modern board and batten decor in the master bedroom and sunroom.
