Privately tucked behind a gated, fully fenced acre surrounded by mature trees, this custom-built ICF (Insulated Concrete Form), fully furnished turnkey estate in Royal Trails offers the rare combination of high-performance construction, expansive living space, and refined country tranquility, all enhanced by recent major upgrades including a new roof, 2-ton A/C, and gutters (2024), exterior paint and water heater (2025), and a whole-home water filtration system (2023). This split-floor plan has 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, soaring 10-foot ceilings in both the home and garage, and a massive 61’ x 10’ screened and carpeted front porch. Inside, wood-look laminate flooring flows throughout the main living areas. From the foyer, a formal dining room with a large front-facing window is to the right, and ahead is the spacious living room and breakfast nook, where built-in shelving and French doors open to the rear porch. The chef’s kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring an oversized island that doubles as a breakfast bar, abundant counter space, crown-molded cabinetry including glass-front accents, stainless steel appliances, double sink, and a 7’ x 6’ walk-in pantry. The primary suite is a true retreat, filled with natural light and peaceful views. Dual oversized walk-in closets complement a spa-inspired bath featuring tiled floors, dual vanities with a seated makeup station, jacuzzi tub beneath a sunlit window, expansive walk-in shower, and private water closet.
