About this home
Spectacular Courtyard-Style Home with Casita in Laurel Oak Estates. Welcome to the Florida retreat you’ve been waiting for. Nestled within the prestigious, guard-gated community of Laurel Oak Estates, this rare courtyard-style residence is more than just a home—it’s a lifestyle. With nearly 3,300 square feet of elegant living space, a private pool, and a versatile detached casita, every element has been thoughtfully designed to offer comfort, connection, and effortless entertaining. Step through double glass doors into an airy, open-concept floor plan filled with natural light. High ceilings, crown molding, and refined architectural touches create a warm, welcoming flow throughout. At the heart of the home, a lush brick-paver courtyard awaits, complete with a heated pool, spa, and full outdoor kitchen. Disappearing glass sliders allow the indoors to blend seamlessly with this tranquil oasis, creating the ultimate backdrop for both quiet mornings and lively gatherings. Inside, the home offers two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a cozy sunroom that makes an ideal space for reading, wellness, an extra bedroom, or working from home. The chef’s kitchen is a delight, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, breakfast bar, and built-in desk. It opens to a spacious great room enhanced by crown molding and engineered luxury plank flooring, while the formal dining room, accented by clerestory windows, art niches, and a built-in buffet, provides an elegant setting for hosting with style. The primary suite is a private sanctuary with dual vanities, a garden tub, and a walk-in shower, while the guest bedroom is tucked away on the opposite wing, offering courtyard views and its own walk-in closet. Just beyond the courtyard, yet still under the same roofline, the detached casita provides its own bedroom, full bath, sitting area, and Murphy bed. Whether used for in-laws, visiting guests, a home office, or even a fitness studio, this versatile space adapts beautifully to your needs. Practical features add to the appeal, including an extended two-car garage with EV charging capabilities and an air-conditioned storage room—ideal for golf gear, beach equipment, or creative hobbies. Life at Laurel Oak Estates combines luxury with a true sense of community. Spanning 813 acres of pristine landscape with only 406 homes, the neighborhood offers a rare balance of privacy and connection. Residents enjoy 24/7 guarded entry, onsite management, and beautifully maintained grounds, with lawn care, mulching, and irrigation included for worry-free living.
For those who wish to take advantage of even more, optional club membership provides access to two championship 18-hole golf courses, twelve tennis courts, six pickleball courts, a Jr. Olympic-sized pool, and a 45,000-square-foot clubhouse that hosts dining, events, and year-round activities. Whether your passion is golf, fitness, or simply neighborly gatherings, Laurel Oak delivers a lifestyle rich with holiday celebrations, hobby groups, and community traditions.
