Property Description
Beautifully renovated Homestead retreat set on nearly half an acre, blending high-end finishes, whole-home hurricane-impact protection, and a lush, private tropical landscape. This home has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, with no detail overlooked. Beautifully renovated Homestead retreat set on nearly half an acre, blending high-end finishes, whole-home hurricane-impact protection, and a lush, private tropical landscape. This home has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, with no detail overlooked. INTERIOR HIGHLIGHTS Solid wood doors, 4 custom molding, and porcelain flooring flow throughout the home. The kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, single-piece Corian countertops, a custom $7,000 designer window, and a custom sink with glass wash station, hot water dispenser, cascade mode, and bottom sink rack. Appliances are top-of-the-line LG — French door refrigerator, electric range, dishwasher, and full-capacity microwave, all WiFi-enabled and compatible with the LG ThinQ app. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated with Japanese toilets and a U by Moen smart shower system (app-controlled, Apple Home compatible). A handmade fireplace built with reclaimed Old Chicago brick anchors the living space beneath cedar-bolted ceilings, and a large projector screen sets up the TV room for a true home theater experience. The primary suite includes custom California Closets. HURRICANE PROTECTION, COMFORT & EFFICIENCY The entire home is fitted with hurricane-impact windows and doors, complete with built-in mini-blinds — a major storm-protection upgrade and insurance advantage for South Florida buyers. Additional systems include a high-efficiency tankless water heater, whole-home water softener, new LG top-capacity washer and dryer, and LED lighting throughout. Smart-home features include a Nest thermostat, Nest security cameras covering the front, back, and side yards, a Nest doorbell, Nest smoke detectors, and a Nest/Yale smart front door lock. OUTDOOR LIVING Step outside to a resort-style backyard: a newly restored pool deck, resurfaced pool with heater, and a poolside wall-mounted TV. Additional structures include a closed solarium and an air-conditioned shed. Garden lovers will appreciate 47 gardenia bushes in the backyard plus more at the front entry, along with two mango trees, two papaya trees, and two banana trees. The property is fully enclosed with a white metal fence and an underground Invisible Fence pet containment system, plus retractable Frontgate hose reels for easy maintenance. A garage storage rack adds extra organization. Well irrigation keeps the grounds lush, with city water for household consumption and a septic system on-site. A rare combination of craftsmanship, storm-ready construction, smart-home technology, and tropical privacy — move-in ready and unlike anything else on the market.
