Property Description

Gorgeous and truly one of a kind custom Kara Bolton home in the Town of Tioga feels less like a residence and more like a private coastal escape. Open the door and light greets you first, drifting across airy interiors wrapped in a serene, beach-inspired palette. The calm is immediate. Ahead, the kitchen and dining space draw you in, anchored by an expansive, immaculate island that quickly becomes the heart of the home. Mornings begin gathered there, sunlight spilling across its surface, coffee brewing, the house slowly coming to life around you. It is where conversations start; meals are shared, and guests naturally linger. Just beyond, the living room offers a different rhythm. On cooler Florida evenings, the fireplace casts a warm glow that makes the entire home feel intimate and grounded. As summer settles in, patio automated blinds filter the golden light and keep the interiors cool, creating a peaceful retreat from the balmy air outside. High ceilings and thoughtful architectural details give the home a sense of quiet grandeur, while the coastal tones keep it relaxed: The balance is seamless, elevated yet easy, polished yet comfortable. The primary suite is its own sanctuary, thoughtfully positioned on the main level and designed to connect seamlessly with the outdoors. This “primary-to-patio” suite opens directly to the backyard pool area; allowing mornings to begin with fresh air and evenings to end with a quiet step outside under the stars. Upstairs, the home evolves with you. It becomes movie nights, visiting friends, space to work, space to gather, space to grow. Every corner feels intentional, designed to support both celebration and quiet moments alike. Step outside and the experience turns unmistakably resort-like. Afternoons are spent poolside beneath open skies. Evenings drift into twilight with the soft hum of water and warm Florida air. The backyard feels secluded and serene, inviting you to slow down and stay awhile. Privately tucked into a quiet corner of the Town of Tioga, life here feels insulated from the rush of the world. No thru traffic. No unnecessary noise. A stillness that is increasingly rare, especially in one of Tioga's most sought-after enclaves. Yet beyond your doorstep, the lifestyle shifts. Stroll to Tioga Town Center for boutique shopping, chef-driven restaurants, coffee spots, and vibrant nightlife. Enjoy access to resort-style amenities including a community pool, fitness center, tennis courts, and a neighborhood park with playground. Everything you want is mere steps away! Coastal in spirit, immaculate in execution: A private retreat in the heart of Town of Tioga. Recent home upgrades include new luxury vinyl plank flooring downstairs, fresh interior and exterior paint, and an updated kitchen with a new KitchenAid oven and dishwasher, stand-alone ice maker, and new disposal. The resurfaced fiberglass pool features a new pump, chlorinator, wiring, and breaker box, while the lanai has been upgraded with new pavers and remote-controlled screens. Additional improvements include a new wood-grain vinyl privacy fence, refreshed landscaping and irrigation. This home is built to last and features durable construction with a concrete block first floor, Hardie board second floor, and metal roof.
