Property Description

MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED - HIGHEST AND BEST DUE BY Wednesday , APRIL 27TH AT 5PM. Stunning 5-bedroom home on one of the prettiest lots in Palencia - live for less as the BOND portion of the CDD fee has been paid in full, and the total electric bill for all of 2021 was $428!

This is the home for nature lovers and people who want to control energy costs. This custom-built, one-owner home has a backyard with an eastern exposure which includes both an open patio and a screened lanai from which you will enjoy a water to preserve view. Enjoy watching the various wildlife, including ducks, egrets, herons, hawks, osprey, turtles, otters, etc.

When you arrive at 448 Sebastian Square you will be welcomed by a flowering landscape and a
courtyard-like entrance to the three-car garage. The open and spacious interior will be a surprise, as
this house runs deeper and higher than one might expect, maximizing the backyard view of water and
preserve. Even if you steal a peek through the glassed-front door with sidelights you will be surprised
after entering the home. The foyer leads to a formal, but warm living room that complements a large
dining room with upgraded lighting. Handcrafted high ceilings and crown molding will catch your eye.
The generous primary bedroom suite is a soothing gray with gorgeous views of the back and side yards
to be enjoyed from 5 windows and the door to the lanai. The Master suite has plantation shutters, his
and her closets, a bath with a working Jacuzzi tub, a separate shower, and separate marble-topped
vanities. The gourmet kitchen is accessible from either the dining room or the formal living room. Black
granite countertops are complemented by rich wood cabinets with upgraded LED under-cabinet lighting.
A gas cooktop, moveable island, stainless steel appliances and two separate pantries create an efficient
workspace. A multi-windowed breakfast nook offers water to preserve views. The family room has
recently been updated with a sleek, modern LED fireplace that can be used all year long; it only provides
heat if desired. The 2nd and 3rd over-sized guest bedrooms have a well-placed Jack and Jill bath (double
vanity) between them. A 4th bedroom downstairs, which is currently used as an office, has a light tunnel
to increase natural light. A full bath is just steps away. Head up the wood stairs to the enormous bonus
room/5th bedroom with a closet, full bath, and a wall of windows that provides a fantastic view of the
natural beauty. The lanai addition is an entertainer's dream. Upgraded and doubled in size, this
screened area has new flooring and a curved outside patio, complete with firepit and outside lighting!
Owners have replaced the roof, painted the exterior, and repainted most of the interior in the past 5
years. Water is directed from the home by gutters and downspouts on all sides, a French drain at the
low part of the driveway, and underground pipes take some of the water run-off directly to the pond
behind the house.
Ready for the really cool upgrades? Solar panels are the reason for the low electric bills, which include
the use of a plug-in vehicle and all-electric yard equipment. The solar panels, paired with Tesla
Powerwall batteries provide electricity during power outages or for self-consumption, effectively
creating your own silent self-contained micro-grid if needed. Super-efficient all-variable-speed HVAC
systems with SEER 21.5 and 20.5 ensure that the inside is cool on the hottest days. A second electric
panel was added allowing for additional expansion of circuits (Future pool!?). The fireplace has a
dedicated electric circuit, as does the garage fridge. A 240V (L2) electric vehicle charger is available in
the garage. A 240V circuit has also been installed for an electric hot water heater option. LED lighting,
and dimmer switches throughout the home reduce energy usage. All windows are tinted to reduce heat
and fading. A deep well and well pump was added for irrigation. A full-house water softener and
carbon filter combo unit was also added. Extra energy savings with a Radiant barrier roof.
Palencia is a thoughtfully designed Master Planned Community with many amenities to enjoy, including
3 swimming pools, state of the art fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, playgrounds, athletic fields, board walks and trails, one of which goes to the Intracoastal waterway, as well as a 30-acre park
system. Pocket parks are located throughout the community. McKenzie Park, just steps away from this
beautiful home, has a playground and a large, flat grassy area.
Sellers would appreciate a post-closing occupancy for 1-2 months. Some furnishings may be available for purchase as they were specifically selected for placement in the home. Sconces in Dining Room, Primary bedroom and Primary bath do NOT convey. Garage fridge and Weber Natural Gas Grill to remain!
