Some homes impress with their features. Others create a lifestyle you can picture from the moment you arrive. Set on more than an acre of beautifully established, park-like grounds within the exclusive gated community of Island Estates in Hammock Dunes, this completely renovated waterfront residence brings together privacy, boating, sophisticated design and effortless Florida living. Mature landscaping creates a remarkable sense of arrival, while inside, the transformation is fresh, refined and thoughtfully executed. At the heart of the home, the open kitchen and family room are designed for everything from quiet mornings to evenings with family and friends. European cabinetry, a dramatic waterfall island and an exceptional collection of Sub-Zero, Thermador, Wolf, Bosch and Miele appliances make the kitchen as functional as it is striking. Custom lighting and updated electrical and plumbing fixtures continue throughout the home. The connection to the outdoors is one of the property's defining features. Stacking and pocketing glass doors disappear to open the living spaces to the screened lanai and private backyard oasis. A solar-heated saltwater pool and spa is surrounded by generous areas for lounging, dining and entertaining, while a newer MEGA-VIEW screen enclosure preserves the openness of the setting. Updated Hayward equipment and passive solar panels complete the pool improvements. Beyond the pool, lush grounds unfold toward the water, where a custom pergola and fully equipped outdoor kitchen create another destination for gathering. Fire up the grills after a day on the water or simply enjoy an evening surrounded by tropical landscaping. Follow the path to your private covered dock on the Florida East Coast Canal. Complete with water, electric and a 10,000-pound boat lift, the dock provides bridge-free access to the Intracoastal Waterway, putting boating, fishing and miles of Florida waterways within easy reach. The thoughtfully designed floor plan provides exceptional flexibility. The primary suite and an additional guest bedroom are conveniently located on the first floor, along with the main living and dining spaces and a private office. The spacious primary retreat opens toward the outdoor living area and features an elegant bath with frameless glass shower and generous walk-in storage. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms with ensuite accommodations are joined by a game/family room, wet bar and outdoor balcony, creating a private retreat for family and guests. Practical improvements are equally impressive, including hurricane protection for every door and window, Pella windows, a security system, central vacuum, circulating hot water, updated irrigation and new gutters. A 26KW whole-home generator with a 500-gallon propane tank adds another layer of comfort and peace of mind. Island Estates is a private, gated island community surrounded by coastal waterways. Optional Hammock Dunes Club membership is available separately, offering access to exceptional golf, dining, tennis, fitness and club amenities. Beautifully renovated and designed to embrace both land and water, this is a home where mornings begin beside the pool, afternoons are spent on the Intracoastal and evenings end beneath the palms. The home is ready. The dock is waiting. All that's left is to enjoy the Island Estates lifestyle.
