Property Description

Set against a secluded conservation backdrop, this renovated single-story residence rests on an expansive parcel of more than one half acre. An extended driveway leads to a side-entry two-car garage, giving the home a composed, private presence from the moment it comes into view. Inside, vaulted ceilings and an open plan define the experience from the moment of entry. Luxury vinyl plank flooring carries uninterrupted through the home, lending continuity and clean, polished look. The kitchen, dining room, living room and family share a vaulted open space, yet each retains an intimate feel, with views across the pool to the conservation area beyond. Entertaining is effortless, and everyday living is equally enjoyable. The kitchen is the main attraction. A large island with raw edge stone counters becomes the natural gathering point, and a walk-in pantry keeps the workspace refined and uncluttered. The three-way split floor plan balances privacy with convenience. The primary suite offers dual closets and a bath with a soaking tub, dual sinks, dedicated vanity space and a separate glass-enclosed shower. An adjoining office shares access to the primary bath and includes a closet, allowing it to serve as a fourth bedroom if desired. On opposite side of the home, two bedrooms are near a large bedroom/bonus with a closet, one bedroom enjoying private access to the second bath and the fourth bedroom conveniently nearby. The laundry room is ideally adjacent to the entrance to the garage. Outdoors, a large lanai and oversized pool are positioned as the centerpiece of the backyard, with a dedicated half bath adding everyday convenience. Beyond the screen enclosed pool area, the expansive yard meets the conservation area, a setting that preserves a rare sense of openness and seclusion. Community residents benefit from a low HOA fee, a new pickleball court and a fishing pier on Sylvan Lake. Sylvan Woods Drive is convenient with easy reach of the 429 Beltway and Interstate 4, bringing all Central Florida close by. The new owner will enjoy quick access to everyday shopping and dining, boutiques, Historic Sanford, Lake Mary, the beaches, airports, Orlando and more.
