Welcome to 55+ Canal Walk. Artistic Elegance Meets Garden Oasis. Once the builder's model, this Exeter model with the optional sitting room offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2 car garage, is located on a quiet cul-de-sac, showcasing the creative flair of the seller inside and out. These original owners have lovingly curated private sanctuary of trees and vibrant gardens to enjoy for years to come. Set back from the street the front exterior shows off its curb appeal with a long driveway, stucco front, gardens and a private side entrance. Beautifully appointed, the 2-story interior is defined by soaring ceilings, custom woodwork, decorator colors and gleaming wood floors that flow throughout the home. The living room with modern light-filtering zebra blinds leads to the formal 2-story dining room with a designer light fixture, and powder room. The heart of the home features a spacious kitchen equipped with an island, granite countertops, white cabinetry, and stainless appliances. Retreat to the family room and relax by the gas fireplace with marble surround, and sliders to the private back patio and views of the gardens. A serene primary bedroom and bath are conveniently located on the 1st floor and open to the office/sitting room. A clever floor plan adjustment moving the office/sitting room entrance away from the primary suite and to the family room would feel expansive and create a seamless flow. The 2nd level continues with the wood flooring, and provides a large loft, two bedrooms, and full bath. New HW heater, 5yr old HVAC, new gas range. Furniture is negotiable.
