Property Description
Set in the highly sought-after Governors community just 3 miles to the beach, this meticulously maintained 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home by Schell Brothers sits on a premier lot backing to a private wooded buffer. A vaulted great room with abundant natural light centers the main level, anchored by a gas fireplace wrapped in custom shiplap. The first floor also features a primary suite with tray ceiling, spa bath, and dual walk-in closets, plus a dedicated home office, dining area, laundry, powder room, and extensive custom trim. The oversized 2-car garage includes an epoxy floor and built-in storage.
The chef's kitchen impresses with matching appliances, a beautiful backsplash, statement countertops, and generous pantry space. Upstairs, an open landing overlooks the great room and leads to four large bedrooms and two full baths, along with a serene meditation room. The front bedroom offers a walkout lanai—the perfect spot for sunrise or sunset.
The fully finished lower level adds exceptional flexibility with a private bar, media/living area, full bath, fitness zone, second office, and ample storage. Notable upgrades include a tankless water heater and energy-efficient windows/appliances.
Outdoor living shines with a screened porch, adjoining dining area, and a custom pergola with motorized awnings—ideal for shaded summer gatherings—plus in-ground sprinklers and thoughtfully maintained landscaping. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities: clubhouse, fitness center, pool with swim-up bar, splash pad, playgrounds, and tennis courts.
A rare combination of location, lot, and livability—ready to call home.
