MORE THAN JUST A TOUCH OF CLASS WITH ARCHES & COLUMNS & NICHES, OH MY! AND A CURVED WALL TOO! Sophistication exudes inside and out from this amazingly unique home with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bath PLUS study/flex room and 2,918 sqft of living space, all situated on just under an acre in the DESIRABLE COMMUNITY of Citrus Hills. Upon approach, the modern classical theme of the home is clearly evident with a hip roof accented by gables terminating at cornice returns and tall, circular columns to complete the look. The extremely welcoming interior continues to showcase this traditional elegance for all who enter; with voluminous ceilings, tiled flooring on the diagonal, open and closed architectural arches in the walls, archways trimmed with crown molding and bullnose edges, built-in, lighted wall niches and plant shelving throughout. A curved accent wall adds to the aesthetic appeal and provides an impressive location to showcase your art in the formal living room on the one side and perhaps a stunning full wall book case on the other side in the office. The large, spacious floor plan presents formal living and dining rooms in the front of the home for entertaining your special guests, while a more private, relaxed space is in the back of home with the family room, kitchen and nook for keeping everyone connected to the food, conversation and good times. The kitchen features plenty of cabinetry, Corian countertops, tiled backsplash, raised breakfast bar and pantry closet. The nook is super convenient for casual meals or afternoon brunch and card game. A multitude of windows of all shapes and sizes throughout the home, but especially in the family room, are a major plus, allowing the Florida sun to pour in giving your mood, focus and productivity a boost. The master bedroom boasts a double French door entry, dual walk-in closets, plant shelves and an ensuite with dual sinks, jetted tub, walk in shower with glass block wall, water closet and linen closet. Guest bedrooms are just as special with double bifold closets and a shared Jack and Jill bathroom. Freshly painted in & out in August 2025, roof replaced in 2021 & HVAC 2017. Lots of peace and privacy in the covered, screened lanai, on the pavered patio, in the screened porch attached to the shed, or in the shade of the backyard with no neighbors directly behind.
