About This Home
As of August 2025OH WHAT A VIEW... Seller has been told that the lot is the BEST LOT in the neighborhood with Panoramic POND VIEWS!! Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this stunning Yarmouth model is one of the very few homes in Equestra located directly on the pond, offering a rare blend of privacy, beauty, and serenity. Step inside and feel instantly at home. Natural light fills the home, highlighting the rich hardwood floors that flow throughout. The soaring two-story family room creates an open, airy feel, centered around a cozy gas fireplace perfect for cool evenings. Host memorable dinners in the formal dining room, or enjoy casual mornings in the spacious kitchen, complete with granite countertops, a pantry, and an abundance of cabinet and counter space. The primary suite boasts a walk-in closet and bathroom with a soaking tub and separate shower. Upstairs, a flexible bonus area/loft offers space for an office or a quiet reading nook. Glass sliders lead you outside to a charming covered patio, your own private escape overlooking the glistening pond, surrounded by lush landscaping and calming views. At Equestra, you're not just buying a home, you're embracing a lifestyle. Residents enjoy a clubhouse, indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, walking trails, planned events, and more. Pondfront homes like this don't come around often, schedule your private tour and discover the lifestyle you've been waiting for.
