4198 Diaz Court, Hernando Beach, FL 34607

Description

Life on the water doesn't get much more luxurious than this! Absolutely exquisite from top to bottom, the 2-story stunner sits at the end of a cul-de-sac in Hernando Beach. From the driveway repaved in 2017 to the charming garden area with pecan, citrus, and peach trees, this home has serious curb appeal. On the ground level, the sizable 2-car carport shares space with 2 huge workshop/storage rooms and a covered, screened lanai. Park your grill outdoors and sip on a frosty brew or a sweet tea while you're barbecuing a meal to enjoy al fresco. The lanai also hosts a 1,500 lb cargo lift, installed in 2021, which means you never have to worry about carrying your groceries up the stairs! Splash to your heart's content in a gorgeous in-ground pool, it's the best way to beat the Florida heat! The pool was resurfaced and brick pavers installed in 2014, while the pool cage was re-screened in 2021, and the pool valet was installed this year. The new color-changing light will be a hit at pool parties and night swims! Staircases in the front and back provide access to the second floor and main living space. An open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and real wood flooring boasts flexible living space allows you to decide if you want a reading nook or maybe a formal dining area. Choice finishes add touches of elegance, like granite counters and solid wood self-closing cabinets. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2017, and 'fully upgraded' isn't just a turn of phrase here. It has everything you could ever want to whip up a gourmet meal, including chic stainless steel Viking appliances, pendant and recessed lighting, newer tile flooring, and a beautiful tile backsplash. Grab your morning java or chai latte and settle into the large breakfast nook. Not only does it let in a ton of natural sunlight, it overlooks the canal out back that offers direct access to the Gulf of Mexico. The lot has 155 feet of property along the waterfront, which makes for a pretty magical view to accompany your breakfast bagel or afternoon snack. If you're tired at the end of a long day and just looking for some time to yourself, it's no problem - the split bedroom floor plan ensures that you'll have all the privacy you need. The spacious bedroom includes his-and-hers closets, plus your own entrance to the balcony. The ensuite bathroom has a jetted tub and separate shower. The guest bathroom was also renovated in 2019 and has new tile flooring. Slip through glass sliding doors in the living room, eating nook, and master suite out to your screened balcony for stunning waterfront vistas and sea breezes; it even has ceiling fans to help keep you cool and comfortable while you take in the salty air. And of course, this home wouldn't be complete without all water extras! There are a total of 5 docks, which includes the 10,000 lb capacity boat lift. That platform also has new composite material and a bait station with a sink. The lighting lining the seawall is currently solar, but it is wired for 110v. Fancy a dip in the saltwater? Well, slide on in - no, literally, there's a slide you can use to go straight from the wood dock to the water! And the location... You're only minutes away from some of the best dining in the county, like local favorites Brian's Place and The Silver Dolphin. Weeki Wachee Springs State Park and Pine Island Beach fall within a 10 mile radius. Homosassa, Tarpon Springs, and Clearwater are all easily accessible via US-19. This is a dream come true!
