Inside, an updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring elegant wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, including a wine fridge for added flair. The main living areas are enhanced by neutral-toned oversized porcelain tile flooring set diagonally, while the bedrooms boast neutral carpeting. A soaring volume ceiling and skylight in the living room further amplify the home’s open and airy feel. The luxurious Primary Suite, which opens to a wonderful office or studio space, also offers a spacious walk-in closet, built-ins for extra storage, and an updated en-suite bath complete with dual sinks and a glass-enclosed shower. The large glassed & screened-in Florida Room overlooks a private rear yard, creating additional living space and a perfect spot to relax and entertain. For added peace of mind, the Florida Room is equipped with permanent hurricane shutters. The home’s thoughtful updates extend to the exterior, where the HOA replaced the barrel tile roof and gutters in 2013, and repaved the private roads. Golf Pointe is located north of University Parkway within the prestigious Palm-Aire Country Club. While membership is optional, members enjoy access to a range of elite amenities, including two 18-hole private golf courses, eight championship Har-Tru tennis courts, a 24/7 fitness center, a junior Olympic swimming pool, and multiple dining options.
