Set on an oversized lot, this Italian-style villa enjoys peaceful golf and lake views yet it's just a short golf cart ride from Sandestin's amazing shopping, restaurants and amenities. A generous brick paver driveway leads to a full one-car garage and an impressive front entrance. Inside, the home is beautifully presented with Jerusalem random etched stone flooring flowing through each elegantly furnished space of the first floor. High ceilings with crown molding and multiple windows enhance the light space, but the focal point is the stunning fairway view through three sets of full-height French doors. The screened patio is double the size of most in Villa Lago and provides a surprisingly private haven for enjoying tranquil views through mature pines and enhanced landscaping. The gourmet kitchen showcases an enviable array of custom cabinets, quartz countertops and KitchenAid stainless appliances. There's a walk-in pantry providing organized storage while the breakfast bar creates a social space for hanging out with the chef. Beneath a glittering chandelier, the dining room is sure to be the gathering spot when entertaining family and friends. The first floor includes a half-bathroom, enviable storage and a primary suite with walk-in closets, built-ins and a sitting area with peaceful views. The bathroom is amply fitted out with a dual quartz vanity and an oversized shower. Upstairs, all three bedrooms have quality walnut flooring and ensuite baths. One of the bedrooms is an additional master suite with a generous private balcony providing a quiet retreat for sipping coffee and enjoying a good book. The laundry room is sizeable with ample cabinets and a stackable washer-dryer. Additional touches include two new HVACs, custom light fixtures and fresh paint. Although it has never been rented, this fully-furnished home is offered with a 6 seater golf cart in a rental-permitted neighborhood, and would make an amazing primary or second home. Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort is known for its outstanding recreation with four championship golf courses, community pools, a marina, watersports and a complimentary shuttle to seven miles of soft white sandy beaches. Grand Boulevard is a shopper's dream while Baytowne Wharf offers a magnificent choice of waterfront dining and entertainment. Life surely doesn't get better than this.
