Property Description

This former model home in Gran Paradiso is one built to impress. Set on an oversized premier lot with western exposure, it offers long, unbroken water views stretching toward the community's grand clubhouse and amenities in the distance, with a different sunset painting the sky each evening. Built in 2014 and recently reimagined with over $200,000 in upgrades, the home carries a coastal-modern feel throughout, featuring consistent porcelain tile flooring, 6-inch baseboards, and designer-inspired trim, paint, and shiplap accents. All windows and doors have been replaced with Viwinco hurricane impact-rated glass (200 mph rating with UV protection), while remote-operated shades on the rear windows add privacy at the touch of a button. A custom ribbed-glass front door and sidelight open into the light-filled floor plan. The kitchen's quartz waterfall countertop echoes the soft palette of sand and sea, with a hint of sparkle reminiscent of the Florida sunshine. All-new high-end appliances (with the exception of the rarely used range), pull-out drawers in every lower cabinet, and a custom Ferguson sink with a bottle washer and pop-up electrical/USB outlet complete the space, while the great room features custom wall cabinetry and a shiplap-framed entertainment wall. The primary suite is privately situated at the rear of the home and features a custom walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with subtle metallic gold wallpaper, white cabinetry, a seamless glass walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms provide flexibility, with one currently serving as a home office complete with a custom-built desk. The guest bath includes a seamless glass shower with a rainfall shower head. Additional features include an ADT security system, a full laundry room with new countertop, cabinetry and a utility sink, and a three-car garage with insulated doors, overhead storage, built-in cabinetry, and a second refrigerator. The lanai offers a heated 5-foot-deep pool and spa, solar-powered multicolor lighting, a remote-operated sunshade, added recessed lighting, and a freshly rescreened no-see-um cage (2025). This home has been thoroughly updated where it matters most, including a Grundfos recirculating hot water system, new water heater, all-new faucets, valves, toilets, and sinks, new ceiling fans, lighting, outlets, fresh exterior paint, new gutters, upgraded irrigation, and a generator hookup. The HOA, under $1,000/ quarter, covers lawn care, Hotwire internet and cable, and full access to the community's exceptional amenities. This designer home is the quiet kind of dream—where every detail a resale buyer hopes for has already been thoughtfully completed. This isn't just a home; it's a lifestyle where every day feels like a getaway. Located in the heart of Wellen Park, you're just minutes from many area beaches, Warm Mineral Springs, golf courses, and world-class shopping and dining. Residents enjoy exceptional amenities, including a 7,000-square-foot clubhouse, resort-style pool with beach entry, spa, fitness center, locker rooms with saunas and steam rooms, tennis and pickleball courts, billiards and card rooms, and scenic fitness trails. With its Tuscan-inspired architecture and vibrant social calendar, Gran Paradiso offers the ultimate Florida lifestyle.
