This Cortessa home provides features and surprises that you just don't anticipate. The iron door entrance, the immediate ''see through'' view to the backyard from the front door, arches and architectural ceilings throughout are a few of the special features. This sizeable yet comfortable home offers 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, a dedicated den, gourmet kitchen and 3-car garage with overhead storage racks plus built-in cabinets. The kitchen welcomes chefs who enjoy a 48'' 8-burner gas range with two ovens as well as an electric wall oven, microwave, built-in refrigerator and quartz countertops with a view of the courtyard. The first-floor master suite presents a luxurious marble tiled bathroom with a corner tub, two vanities with quartz counters and a large walk-in shower with two shower heads. On the second floor are two bedrooms with walk-in closets, a full bathroom, family room and mini kitchen. Just one of the upstairs highlights is a tremendous 400+ square foot bonus room with new luxury vinyl flooring. Just imagine the possibilities: teenage suite, kids' playroom, game, hobby or media room, small business space, home gym and more! Situated in the center of the first floor is a gorgeous courtyard surrounded on three sides by large, glass sliding doors. In this tranquil space, there are sunshades for the summer heat, string lights for the nighttime, a relaxing water feature to unwind by and a gas firepit to make delicious smores. In the backyard you can garden with a dedicated water system or pick oranges and grapefruits from mature trees. At the end of a long day, simply relax among the vibrant landscape with the adorable giraffe statues while listening to the sound of water from the fountain.
