Property details
About 38673 Bright Ocean Way
Pond views, polished upgrades, and purposeful design come together in this standout Lighthouse Crossing home. Perfectly placed on one of the community’s most desirable lots, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath beauty backs to a peaceful, fountain-fed pond with no rear neighbors—offering privacy, scenery, and space to unwind. Curb appeal stuns with expanded stone landscape beds, two custom island gardens, upgraded lighting, and a finished third-car driveway leading to the full 3-car garage. A privacy enclosure for trash bins and full-view storm doors on both the front and garage entries add thoughtful function to the home’s crisp exterior. Step inside and you’re greeted by a sunlit foyer with hardwood floors and crown molding that carry throughout the open main level. The heart of the home is the inviting family room with gas fireplace, which flows into the beautifully upgraded kitchen—featuring quartz counters, stainless appliances, a breakfast bar, and a charming dining area filled with natural light. A custom coffee bar with new cabinetry and counters adds convenience and character. The primary suite offers serene pond views, dual walk-in closets, and an en-suite bath with granite vanity and upgraded frameless shower door. A second bedroom, full hallway bath, and laundry room with upper cabinetry and granite folding space complete the main floor. Upstairs, you'll find a versatile loft enhanced with new Coretec flooring, two spacious bedrooms, and a full third bath—ideal for guests, hobbies, or a tucked-away office. But the true showstopper? The EZ Breeze enclosed screened porch, opening to a professionally designed Cambridge paver patio with built-in seating, grilling area, hot tub with privacy fencing, and sweeping pond views. The full-yard irrigation system is powered by a second water meter and includes HOA-approved coverage into the adjacent common area. Added insulation above the garage and porch ensures year-round comfort. Every upgrade was made with intention—creating a space that’s as functional as it is beautiful.
