Welcome to this stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath custom Arthur Rutenberg home in the highly sought-after gated Waterbridge community, Phase 1, perfectly situated on a private wooded preserve. A low country porch and an impressive grand entryway welcomes you with its intricate barrel ceiling and detailed trim work. Just off the grand hallway is a generous room ideal as an office or a 4th bedroom. The large first-floor primary suite features a tray ceiling embellished with shiplap, along with a luxurious ensuite bathroom offering a beautifully tiled shower, a relaxing soaker tub, and an expansive walk-in closet. The chef’s dream kitchen offers a large island, ample cabinetry, soft close cabinets and a spacious pantry, flowing seamlessly into the open-concept main living area.
