An acre of scenic land backing up to the Florida River as well as extravagant mountain views, makes this mature home the escape you've been waiting for! This home is covertly located in Florida River Estates, nestled in a valley with 2 adjoining private ponds for fishing, paddle boarding, or other water activities. Upon entering this completely remodeled home, there is a considerable living area boasting a full bay window and complete with a pot belly wood burning stove that can heat much of the home. The kitchen features gorgeous granite countertops, ample Alder cupboards, self-closing drawers, newer stainless steel appliances, gas stove top, and warm under-cupboard lighting. Off the kitchen there is access to the 2-car garage and a secluded bedroom complete with a wood-burning fireplace and large closet. The Cherrywood flooring extends from the kitchen to the grand dining room with breathtaking views from the bountiful windows and patio door. The spacious patio offers room for entertaining guests while facing the tree-covered mountain. The elongated hallway is integrated with an oversized linen closet, a storage closet, a washer/dryer and cozy carpet throughout the remainder of the home. The main bathroom qualities are exquisite granite and tile throughout with heated floors as well as a modern bowl sink. There are two roomy bedrooms off the hall both include ceiling fans. One bedroom has a large window facing the back and a generous custom built-in closet and cupboard space and the other with its own adorable 3/4 bathroom. Down the hall is an intimate den with a wood-burning fireplace, outdoor access displaying Trex decking and once again the magnificent views. The elegant master suite is secluded on the end of the home with more windows than wall space and a perfect picture of the river. It also includes a ceiling fan, an extensive walk in closet, storage closet, outdoor access to the front and the most luxurious bathroom escape with gorgeous tile and granite. The deep jetted tub will relax, the custom 6 head walk-in open shower will energize and the heated floors will soothe.
