3/2 Screen room, pond - This exceptionally well-cared-for home has many upgrades that make it a truly nice place to live. The heart of this home is the kitchen, which features granite countertops, ceramic flooring, high-end stainless steel appliances, including a gas range and convection oven, a skylight, under cabinet LED lighting, and plenty of cabinet and pantry space. It flows nicely into the dining area and living room for easy entertaining. The living room has a vented gas log fireplace and opens onto a new screen room that overlooks a small pond. There are three bedrooms and two full baths. The master bedroom has a huge walk-in closet, and the en-suite master bath has a garden tub. A natural gas tankless water heater ensures endless hot water, and the metal roof, solar powered attic fan and storm doors make the house even more energy efficient. There is high-quality laminate flooring throughout, with ceramic tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. The laundry room boasts plenty of cabinets, and there is a utility closet on the back of the house for extra storage. In case of a storm, there is a generator hookup, and all of the bedroom windows have ready-to-mount hurricane panels. The location is terrific: you’ll be 5 minutes from the University of South Alabama, 12 minutes from Spring Hill College, 10 minutes from the airport, and less than 10 minutes from seven different grocery stores, including Whole Foods, The Fresh Market, and Publix. Available August 10, earlier if desired.
