Property details

About 12851 Tortoise Shell Pl

COME HOME TO YOUR OWN EVENING LIGHT SHOW as you watch beautifully framed sunsets over the long, placid pond beyond your color-changing pool in a stone-pavered lanai! That lanai is screened and roof-sheltered for all-weather enjoyment and impressive entertaining -- as it opens through a 6-panel slider set from the wide-open style of this 3,600-square-foot home! West Bay's Virginia Park plan provides 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, a central bonus room upstairs, a French-doored den or office downstairs, and a sprawling "great room" encompassing kitchen, dining, and living areas that shine with the builder's Coastal White Design: Ventura wood-look tile floors, Sonoma Linen cabinets, Calacatta Novello Quartz counters and more. What makes this property truly stand out, though, is its unmatched package of pool, pond, and prime placement on an elbow street that provides extra parking and a village greenspace out front. This really is a great spot in Triple Creek, a resort-style community with clubhouse, fitness center, sports fields, playground parks, a 50-acre lake and the nearby Triple Creek Nature Reserve. The neighborhood elementary school is just a couple of blocks away, and you're conveniently close to other fine schools, shops, restaurants, recreation options, etc. The owners who added the pool to this nearly new home didn't expect life to pull them so soon away from Florida, but here's your chance to embrace all the advantages of the Sunshine State. Make your appointment to see this today!
