The story
- Pool
Welcome to The Outdoor Oasis, a Layton model on the coveted preserve side of Lake Babcock Estates, offered turnkey so you can move right in. Nothing is built behind you here, and protected preserve brings peaceful sunrises over the treeline every morning. The deep backyard is truly one of a kind, with circular raised garden beds connected by winding stone paths, producing banana and mango trees, and a variety of vegetables so you can grow your own harvest right outside your door. Under the screened enclosure, enjoy a heated saltwater pool and spa with glass-tile accents surrounded by an expansive sealed paver deck, plus a 25' x 14' covered lanai with room for outdoor dining and a fire-table lounge. A pool bath keeps wet feet off the main living areas. Peace of mind comes standard, with impact glass windows throughout and a hurricane roll-down screen protecting the lanai. Inside, 12-foot ceilings rise another 2 feet into elegant coffered trays, and oversized sliding glass doors open the gathering room to the lanai for true indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a contrasting wood island with seating for four, gas cooktop, built-in wall oven and microwave, stainless appliances, crystal pendant lighting, and a walk-in pantry with a butcher-block counter. A café nook with a navy accent wall overlooks the pool, and a separate 21' dining room hosts holiday gatherings with ease. Tile flows through the main living areas with carpet in the bedrooms. The private owner's suite offers a bay of windows overlooking the pool and preserve, and a spa-inspired bath with a quartz dual vanity, walk-in shower with bench, custom built-in closet system, and an infrared sauna. Both guest bedrooms have their own full bath, and Bedroom 2 features a bay window. Behind double doors, the flex room has floor-to-ceiling built-in cabinetry, perfect for an office, gym, or hobby room. A 3-car garage and freshly sealed paver driveway complete the home. Lake Babcock Estates enjoys a master HOA of just $136/month, and owners have full control of their own landscaping. Bring your suitcase, live the Babcock Ranch lifestyle, and come home to your own private oasis.
