About This Home

Commanding its corner presence in Willow Bend, this impeccably maintained 4-bedrooms + office, 2-bath pool residence offering 2,252 sq ft of living space makes a bold architectural statement upon arrival. An illuminated walkway leads to a stately portico framed by columns and glass double doors crowned by a transom window. Swaying palms, manicured landscaping surrounded by river rock, and lush St. Augustine Provista lawn enhance the approach, while the fully side-entry 2-car garage reinforces the home's distinguished curb appeal. The backyard unfolds into a private resort-style retreat featuring a screened lanai with brick paver decking, heated saltwater pool with spillover spa, and dual screen doors for seamless access. A vinyl-fenced yard with two Pergola-accented gated entrances, fruit-bearing trees, tropical landscaping, and river rock landscape beds create a serene outdoor setting. Extensive mechanical and smart upgrades include Roof (3 yrs), A/C (5 yrs), new water heater, new water softener, smart thermostat, smart garage opener, smart lighting and receptacles, pool automation, and a cellular-connected alarm system — delivering efficiency and peace of mind. Inside, soaring ceilings, diagonal ceramic tile flooring, 5¼-inch baseboards, an architectural art niche, and designer lighting define the main living areas. Formal living and dining room offers elegant entertaining spaces. Just off the foyer, a home office behind double-doors features custom built-in cabinetry spanning both walls — ideal for remote work or study. The beautifully appointed kitchen showcases 42-inch cherry cabinetry with stainless pulls and soft-close drawers, granite countertops, tile backsplash, LED under-cabinet lighting, stainless appliances including a NEW induction range with built-in air fryer and new microwave, café corner, breakfast bar with pendant lighting, a bright dinette overlooking the pool, and walk-in pantry. The family room is anchored by a dramatic real stacked stone fireplace feature wall with custom cabinetry and mantle. Wired for home theatre with integrated speaker cabinetry and temperature-controlled media storage, enhanced by LED cabinet lighting and a large smart ceiling fan. Sliding glass doors extend the living area to the lanai for effortless indoor-outdoor flow.

The renovated ensuite bath features a Quartz topped dual-sink vanity with glass tower and Alexa-enabled radio, designer lighting and mirrors, a spacious shower with large platform-tile walls, stone flooring, bench seating, frameless glass enclosure, and Hansgrohe rain head. Added windows and a quiet Panasonic exhaust fan complete the space.
