Under contract-accepting backup offers. Experience exceptional craftsmanship, expansive preserve views, and beautifully upgraded indoor and outdoor living in this custom Cardel pool home. From its paver driveway and stone-accented exterior to its welcoming front porch and double glass entry doors, every detail makes a memorable first impression.
Inside, soaring ceilings, natural travertine flooring, custom woodwork, crown molding, encased columns, tray ceilings, and transom windows create an atmosphere that feels both refined and inviting. French doors open to a private office, while the open-concept living areas provide plenty of room to gather and entertain. The spacious family room features custom built-ins and flows seamlessly into a stunning kitchen appointed with granite countertops, upgraded glazed cabinetry, an oversized island with additional storage, a walk-in pantry, newer appliances, under-sink water filtration, and a built-in bar. A wood-plank accent wall adds character to the adjacent breakfast nook.
Wood flooring continues throughout the bedrooms, including the expansive primary suite, which offers two closets and a beautifully finished bathroom with dual vanities, granite countertops, and an oversized custom stone walk-in shower with a built-in bench and niches. Generously sized secondary bedrooms provide excellent closet space, while the additional bathrooms feature spacious showers and quality finishes. Upstairs, a large bonus room currently arranged as a theater offers flexible space for movie nights, recreation, or entertaining, along with a convenient half bathroom.
Outside, the solar-heated saltwater pool overlooks peaceful conservation views and unforgettable sunsets. The extended paver lanai, no-see-um screening, and fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a grill, refrigerator, and sink create an exceptional setting for year-round enjoyment. Thoughtfully designed landscaping around the pool is supported by an extended irrigation and drip system connected to reclaimed water.
Extensive improvements provide added comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind, including a 22-kilowatt Generac whole-house natural gas generator, Kevlar hurricane screens, whole-house surge protection, a 220-volt EV charging outlet, and a tankless water heater. Additional updates include a newer Hayward EcoStar pool pump, updated pool controls and saltwater chlorination equipment, HVAC UV coil sanitizers and in-duct air purification systems installed in 2021, and an updated second-floor HVAC system completed in 2021. The gutters were upgraded and extended around the home in 2023, with leaf guards added on the second floor. The exterior was painted in 2024, and the interior was freshly painted in 2026. A newer LG washer and dryer are also included.
Located in the highly desirable Starling neighborhood of FishHawk Ranch, this exceptional home is zoned for FishHawk’s A-rated schools.
