This exquisite Royal Highlands home is the consummate blend of peaceful location and upscale living! The executive-level estate sits on a full acre on a paved, close-ended road with no through-traffic. It has plenty of room to park your RV or your boat, and a brand new AC unit in 2022. Through the double door entry, a huge foyer gives way to a split-bedroom floor plan with gorgeous new laminate flooring. Key features include fresh paint, pillared accents, lofty double tray ceilings, new ceiling fans, and new designer light fixtures. Entertaining is a breeze with oversized formal living and dining rooms, where you can host game nights or intimate dinner parties. The fireplace in the living room is double-sided and adjoins the private primary bedroom. A spacious suite fit for royalty, it has its own access to the porch and a big walk-in closet. Spa-like extras in the primary bathroom such as a dual sink vanity, soaking tub, and double-headed walk-in shower will help melt your stress away at the end of a long day. The heart of the home, though, is most assuredly the kitchen. With breakfast bars overlooking both the living and family rooms, you’ll never want for a spot to park your favorite snacks! Beautiful wood cabinets and a walk-in pantry offer plenty of storage. The stainless steel appliances include a new Samsung smart refrigerator with a touchscreen panel. There’s even a large eating nook with a view of the backyard. Wired for surround sound, the family room is ideal for movie marathons and binging series. The remainder of the guest bedrooms are quite sizable; they share a guest bathroom with a tub/shower combo and backyard access. Conveniently, there’s an additional half bath and an indoor laundry room. Grab your morning coffee or evening wine and make your way to the screened porch out back, where you can listen for birdsong and enjoy the sight of the shady trees in the yard and beyond. Park your grill out on the open patio for summer barbecuing, or add a lounge chair to catch some rays. Your four-legged friends can safely enjoy their outdoor time in the fenced pet run. And if you need extra space beyond the extended 3-car garage to stow your belongings, there is a shed out back, as well. Royal Highlands has no HOA fees or restrictions. US-19 is nearby for easy travel to Homosassa, the sponge docks of Tarpon Springs, and the beaches of Clearwater. You’re also minutes away from attractions like Weeki Wachee Springs State Park and Cabot Citrus Farms, a world-renowned golf experience scheduled to open in December 2023 with 4 courses, a clubhouse, and other stellar amenities. Tampa is an hour to the south, and Orlando with all its theme parks lies less than 2 hours to the east. Make this dream home your reality and schedule a private tour today!
