At 989 Eleuthera, in the vibrant 55+ community of Bay Indies, a beautifully caredfor, fully turnkey home waits along a quiet walking path, offering upgrades at every turn and a lifestyle wrapped in comfort and ease. A rare double?wide, side?by?side carport with a brand?new roof welcomes you, providing generous parking for multiple vehicles while still leaving room for an inviting outdoor seating area. The oversized shed, also with a new roof, houses the hot water heater, a utility sink, and abundant storage, giving you the practical conveniences you need without sacrificing space inside. Step through the door and into a chef's delight-an expansive open floor plan anchored by new Merillat cabinetry, gleaming granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a center island with cooktop, oven, and a dramatic overhead exhaust. Modern chandeliers add a stylish touch throughout, blending lighting and space?saving airflow in one sleek design. An extra?wide pantry ensures you'll never run short on storage. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, where a table for six, a credenza, and a spacious living room create the perfect setting for conversation, relaxation, and evenings by the electric fireplace framed by built-in bookcases. Just beyond, the enclosed lanai extends your living space with tinted side?by?side windows, screens, curtains, finished flooring, and a portable A/C unit that transforms it into a true all?season retreat. Down the hallway, convenience continues with a full?size stacked washer and dryer tucked neatly into a closet, along with an additional linen and coat closet for the few jackets you'll ever need in Florida's sunshine. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, with the primary bath featuring a newer high vanity and a beautifully refreshed tub/shower combination set on tile flooring. The guest bedroom offers twin beds, a seating area, and TV, with a portable wardrobe providing flexible storage after the original closet was removed to open the space, easily replaced if desired. The master bedroom is a serene haven with a queen bed, ample furnishings, and room to accommodate a king. It opens into a charming dressing area complete with makeup table, double?sink vanity, and a walk?in closet. The private wet room has been updated with a walk-in shower, flush, and enough room to add a chair, cabinet, or even create an additional closet. Additional upgrades include gorgeous bamboo flooring throughout, supported by new particle board and bracing underneath, a new vapor barrier, a two?year?old roof with a one?year?old lanai roof, and hurricane windows throughout-including the lanai door, offering peace of mind in every season. This lovingly maintained home sits in a peaceful, pet?friendly setting along the walking path, embraced by the warm, welcoming spirit of Bay Indies where even the agents at My Florida Dreams live in the community and become your neighbors.
