Located in the prestigious non-rental community of Burnt Pine, this completely remodeled home enjoys exceptional privacy. Meticulously maintained and lightly used as a second home, this Mediterranean-style residence is surrounded by mature trees and backs up to the 11th fairway of the golf course. A two-car garage and a row of shuttered windows announce the covered entrance. Step inside and enter a seamless, sophisticated world where custom cabinetry and modern technology enhance the stunning floor plan. Designed for functionality and entertaining, the gracious formal dining room and living room boast custom chandeliers, a fireplace, crown molding and many extras. The custom-built bar has an integrated Sub-Zero wine cooler and is perfect for amateur mixologists to create and serve signature cocktails. Professional decor in muted tones complements the marble and hardwood flooring. The home showcases the Ferrari of kitchens with custom cabinets, high-end Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and a walk-in butler’s pantry, all designed to make entertaining easy. Two dishwashers, an under-counter beverage refrigerator, a six-burner gas stove, a double range, an ice maker and an integrated coffee station are just some of the refinements surrounding the marble-topped island. Retire to the exquisite master bedroom, which has custom cabinetry incorporating a Brown safe. The adjoining luxurious bathroom has a deep garden tub, dual vanities and an enhanced steam shower. In addition to the master bedroom being on the first level, there is a luxury guest suite wing as well that has its own built-in refreshment center. The other two bedrooms are located on the second level; each with their own ensuite baths and private balconies. The rear courtyard wraps around a large pool and water features, overlooked by three screened porches on two levels. There’s ample space for alfresco dining and relaxing in the peaceful park-like setting. A covered porch houses the outdoor kitchen, complete with a Wolf gas grill at one end and a cozy fireplace at the other. An outdoor TV and audio system make this a year-round place to enjoy. The whole house has an ultra-smart home configuration with true remote operation, allowing owners to monitor audio, video, lighting and shade control onsite or from afar.
