About This Home

As of April 2025

Enjoy resort style living in this beautiful open-concept 3BR/3.5BA ranch home in the highly desired Del Webb Carolina Gardens 55+ Community. As you enter, you're greeted by a spacious, flowing layout that seamlessly connects the living areas. The heart of the home is a large, open living room that flows effortlessly into the dining area and kitchen, creating a perfect space for entertaining or family gatherings. The kitchen is a chef's dream with a gas cooktop, double ovens, wine cooler and an expansive quartz island for prep work or casual dining, and plenty of cabinetry for storage. A walk-in pantry offers additional space for kitchen essentials. The owners suite is a private retreat with its own ensuite bathroom, featuring dual vanities, a zero threshold walk-in shower with 3 shower heads, and two spacious walk-in closets. The two additional bedrooms are also generously sized, both with their own ensuite bathrooms. For added flexibility, the home includes a flex room that can serve multiple purposes—whether it's a home office, library, or craft room, you can tailor it to suit your needs. At the back of the house is a large screened porch with EZ Breeze Windows making it a 3 season room. Perfect for enjoying the outdoors without the hassle of bugs. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee, reading a book, or hosting a small gathering, this space provides a relaxing retreat. HOA includes lawn maintenance, Internet and a large Amenity Center with indoor/outdoor pools, pickleball, gym and clubs.
