If you've been waiting for the perfect reason to make your move, this is it. Nestled against a serene wetlands backdrop in the highly coveted Waters Edge community, this detached one-level villa is the rare find that checks every box — and then some. Nearly 1,900 square feet of thoughtfully designed single-level living, three bedrooms, and a floor plan so open and inviting you'll feel it the moment you walk through the door. And what a first impression it makes. From the curb, these villas carry a warmth and polish that immediately feels like home. Inside, 9-foot ceilings stretch across a layout designed for real life — the kind of home where mornings feel unhurried and evenings feel earned. The oversized kitchen is the heart of it all: rich 42-inch oak cabinetry, generous counter space, convenient pantry, sun-drenched windows, and an eat-in nook that invites you to linger. The mud and laundry room sits right off the kitchen with direct garage access — because the little details matter just as much as the grand ones. The open concept unfolds beautifully from there. A comfortable dining area for when company comes, a generous living room anchored by a gas fireplace with oak mantle and tile surround, and then — the moment that will seal the deal — your private four-season porch with oversized patio door, beautiful morning Eastern exposure flooding the room with light all day, and a slider that opens to your patio overlooking nothing but quiet, natural wetlands. No neighbors. No noise. Just peace. The primary suite lives up to every expectation. The ensuite bathroom is spa-caliber: soaking tub, walk-in shower, private toilet room, dual-sink vanity, and heated floors that turn an ordinary morning into something indulgent. Three bedrooms total — each with a ceiling fan — which at this price point and square footage is genuinely hard to find. Beyond your front door, Waters Edge delivers a community experience that is truly in a class of its own. The beautifully maintained community center offers onsite staff, a fireplace lounge for gathering, a billiards room, a full-kitchen community room you can reserve for any occasion, a fitness center that rivals private gyms, an oversized pool, and a playground area for when the grandkids visit. This isn't just a place to live — it's a lifestyle. And the location will quietly become one of your favorite things about it. Just 2 miles from your pharmacy, your doctor, your grocery store, your favorite restaurant. Everything you need, exactly when you need it, without the drive. Updates so you don't have to. 2022 - security system, leaf filter gutters with guards. 2021 - landscaping around house, waterproof lvp flooring. 2020 - Cambria kitchen countertops. 2017 - roof, primary bath Cambria countertops, and primary bathtub surround. No grass to cut. No driveway to shovel. No exterior maintenance — ever. Just the freedom to live fully, on your terms, in a home that handles the rest. For anyone ready to trade the demands of a single-family home for something smarter, easier, and frankly more beautiful — Waters Edge isn't just the right move. It's the best move you'll make.
Homes like this don't come along often. When they do, they don't stay long.
