Property Description

Welcome to this beautifully maintained villa in St. Andrews East at the Plantation Golf & Country Club—offered turnkey furnished and move-in ready. Thoughtfully designed with tasteful, neutral furnishings in fantastic condition, this home is both elegant and inviting. You’ll appreciate the open floor plan, enhanced by cathedral ceilings and crown molding. While the home features an airy layout, its rich finishes create a cozy, sophisticated ambiance. The spacious kitchen is a standout, featuring warm wood-toned cabinetry, gleaming granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a custom pantry expansion that offers more storage than the standard design. Tile flooring extends throughout the main living areas, with engineered wood in the bedrooms and den, adding a touch of warmth. The great room seamlessly flows into the lanai through a double set of sliders, creating an all-weather retreat. A roll-down sunshade adds versatility, and the private, landscaped view offers a peaceful setting with a preserve beyond. The screened lanai is the perfect place to unwind, enjoy Florida’s weather year-round, or entertain with a barbecue. The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan offers privacy and comfort. The generous primary suite features double walk-in closets—both equipped with additional shelving for optimized storage—dual vanities, and a spacious walk-in shower with refreshed grout (updated in 2022). Sliding doors provide direct access to the lanai, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The guest suite, made private with pocket doors, ensures visitors feel right at home. A versatile den with a sofa sleeper provides extra accommodations or a functional workspace. The laundry room includes ample cabinetry, a wash sink, and a newer washer that was replaced in 2019. Additional upgrades bring peace of mind, including IMPACT WINDOWS and clear Lexan storm shutters for the sliding glass doors, making storm preparation effortless. The HVAC system was replaced in June 2024, and the water heater was updated in 2017. With condominium ownership, exterior maintenance is fully taken care of, making it an excellent choice for frequent travelers or those seeking a truly carefree lifestyle. There is no CDD fee, and the neighborhood offers an active clubhouse along with two community pools. Optional membership to the Plantation Golf & Country Club provides access to two 18-hole championship golf courses, 13 Har-Tru tennis courts, six pickleball courts, Bocce Ball, a fitness center, a Jr. Olympic pool, and exceptional dining and social events. Perfectly located just minutes from beautiful beaches, shopping, dining, Wellen Park Downtown, the Atlanta Braves Spring Training Stadium, and convenient access to I-75, this villa offers the best of Florida living.
