About This Home

As of November 2023

This is the Bluewater Bay home you have been waiting for; located in the sought after Magnolia Forest neighborhood. The assumable VA loan (3.125%) makes it even better! This one-story brick beauty is a custom home with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths in a split floorplan, including an amazing Florida sunroom. The paver driveway and cheerful landscaping welcome you home. Enter into the huge great room which includes a large sitting area and a flex space where you can curl up with a book or play a game (could also be a formal dining room). The large eat-in kitchen boasts newer stainless-steel appliances (2021), beautiful new expansive countertops, an island, and new backsplash. French doors lead to the 4 season sunroom and then to the fully fenced back yard. The yard lives larger than its 1/4 acre, providing ample space to gather and play. The retractable awning provides shade from sun or rain so you can enjoy coffee on the patio year-round. The owner's suite is spacious - the ensuite bathroom includes two walk-in closets, two sinks, a water closet, and a massive double shower. Bedroom 2 is adjacent to the owner's suite and would make a perfect nursery or office. On the other side of the house, two generous bedrooms with large closets share a hall bath. A half mile walk can take you to Bluewater Bay marina or to a community pool (membership required). Bluewater Bay is a resort community with opportunities for tennis, golf, pickleball and swimming and includes walking trails and bike lanes. Rest assured - this house is ready to welcome you with updated systems - roof is 2019, HVAC is 2019, ductwork is 2023, water heater 2022, termite bond in place. Seller willing to contribute towards closing costs, including points buy down with acceptable offer.
