Beautifully situated within the sought-after Thurston community of PGA National, this one-story single-family residence offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and nearly 3,000 square feet of living space under air, complete with a 2-car garage. The home features a flexible footprint ready to be reimagined to suit a variety of lifestyles. The spacious kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a free-form prep island with cooktop and hood, wood cabinetry, neutral-toned quartz countertops, and a full suite of stainless-steel appliances. The adjacent family room is warm and inviting, highlighted by a stone-surround fireplace and built-in wet bar, while an expansive window frames serene views of the lush garden and golf course beyond. The generously sized primary suite offers added flexibility with space for a sitting area, walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom, along with two private access points, one leading to the screened patio and another to a tranquil side garden. Outdoor living is equally appealing, with a screened patio that wraps around two sides of the home, offering distinct areas for lounging and dining. Enhanced by a wood-paneled ceiling, the space blends the comfort of indoor living with the charm of an outdoor retreat. The fully fenced backyard showcases mature tropical landscaping and a picturesque fountain, all set against a peaceful golf course backdrop. Notable updates include a 2018 A/C, 2022 generator, and storm protection with one impact window and clear panels for the remainder. With great square footage, desirable location, and endless potential, this home presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers to renovate and tailor the space to their own taste, whether as a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or investment property.
