Orchid end-unit villa
Western sunsets, every evening
48 feet of pond frontage, an extended lanai and a private end-unit entry, all in move-in-ready condition.
This end-unit Orchid villa sits on a premium pond-view homesite in gated Gran Paradiso, just a short stroll from the clubhouse. The Orchid is one of the most livable villa plans in the community. Its private, covered front entry sits on the outside of the building rather than sharing a center entrance with the neighbor, so the home lives and feels like a single-family residence.
Inside, guests get their own space: the second bedroom and its bath are tucked away on the opposite side of the foyer, separate from the primary suite. French doors open both the den and the primary bedroom to the main living area, so each feels like part of the living space when open and private when closed. The primary suite also has sliders straight out to the covered lanai.
The home has been thoughtfully upgraded and is move-in ready. Walls, trim, doors and ceilings were painted about two years ago, and 20-inch porcelain tile runs on the diagonal through the main living areas. Plantation shutters dress the primary bedroom and bath, the den and the guest bedroom. Lighting was clearly a priority: dimmable pendants, under-cabinet and track lighting in the kitchen, dimmable chandeliers in the dining room and back hall, and Kichler and Minka ceiling fans in every main room. The kitchen pairs Frigidaire Gallery appliances (about two years old) with a tumbled marble backsplash and custom pantry shelving.
Outside is where this home really shines. The extended lanai has a Cayman outdoor ceiling fan, and extended pavers give you a dedicated spot for the grill. Custom curbing and landscaping frame the home, and landscape lighting front and back shows it off after dark. The two-car garage has a polyaspartic floor, a retractable screen door and wire shelving.
Sunsets, privacy and a short walk to the clubhouse: this is the Orchid villa you’ve been waiting for.
