Built in 2018 By Medallion homes, this waterfront Aruba floor plan offers a spacious and open split floor plan with three bedrooms plus office/den with views of the water from nearly every room. This home was designed with an additional setback from the road providing an oversized driveway for longer vehicles. The garage was also extended to provide more depth for parking and storage and includes a laundry tub/mud sink and overhead storage shelves. The home is also equipped with a 24KW whole-home generator so that you are never without power in stormy conditions. The professionally landscaped yard is stunning from the curb and will make you the envy of the neighbors. Designed for ease of living and low maintenance, this floor plan offers the perfect balance of functional living space and elegance. From the entry, you will be awed by the water views, high ceilings and countless interior design upgrades. From the tray ceilings and crown moldings to the elegant wood floors and well-appointed kitchen, the first impression is that of luxury. The interior of the home is light and bright featuring abundant windows and glass doors across the rear of the home providing water views while adorning the interior with natural light. The large home office/den is located just off the entryway and has direct access to the master bathroom and bedroom. The spacious kitchen was designed with entertaining in mind. 42” upper cabinets and a separate pantry provide ample kitchen storage while the light and bright finishes of the upgraded granite countertops and brand new stainless steel appliances provide the space with a very open and spacious feel. The island overlooks the main living area providing ample space for additional bar seating. The dinette is just off the kitchen providing additional entertaining space and beautiful vistas of the waterfront. The comfortable guest bedrooms provide great space for your visitors to relax and recharge while providing a great balance of space and privacy for everyone. One of the guest rooms has been equipped with a “wet bar” and cabinetry and features its own exterior door. This would make a great craft room or in-law suite. The options are only limited by your imagination. True Florida indoor/outdoor living is made possible by the large glass sliding doors that open from the main living area out to the screened rear porch, proving endless water views and warm afternoon breezes all while keeping you safe from insects.
