8 KNOTWOOD LANE

It's hard to imagine a home more exquisite than this custom built pool home on the Southern Woods golf course! The curb appeal is enhanced by the oversized 3-car garage, plus the new 6' gutters and new roof, both done in 2021, as well as the new AC in 2020. The floor plan is designed for beauty and ease of use, as formal living and dining rooms flow effortlessly into the kitchen and family room. This home has it all: tray and coffered ceilings, crown molding, granite counters, pendant and decorator lighting, dual pane windows, a central vacuum, a cozy gas fireplace, and more. Don't miss a moment of your favorite show or song with surround-sound speakers throughout the house and on the lanai, each with their own volume controls. The showstopper? That would have to be the massive 10 ft infinity sliding glass doors in the family room that open up to the screened lanai and panoramic views of the golf course! The gourmet kitchen is worthy of the culinary gods - it'll have the family cook salivating with its KraftMade cabinets with sliding drawers, a gorgeous 6-burner Wolf gas cooktop, and a huge center island with seating space. The stainless steel appliances are sleek and chic, including the built-in oven and microwave, plus a new dishwasher (2021). The adjoining butler area has glass front cabinets, bottle storage, and a wine cooler; it overlooks the formal living room, making it the perfect spot to serve cocktails and charcuterie to your guests! A den/office space with 8 ft glass doors provides all the flexible living space your family could want; it could be a home office, a craft room, play room, home gym, or even a 4th bedroom! A split-bedroom floor plan ensures your privacy; along with access to the pool area, the master bedroom has an enormous custom walk-in closet. The master bathroom is spa-like with its dual-sink vanities and KraftMade cabinets and a built-in vanity area. The feature soaking tub is jetted, and the walk-in snail shower has dual shower heads and a resplendent etched-glass accent. Best of all? This bathroom has its own 30-gallon hot water tank, so you never have to worry about taking a cold shower or bath again! Florida living wouldn't complete without an amazing outdoor space, and this one is no exception! There are two spots on the shady lanai that could be incredible lounge or outdoor dining areas. Swim year round in the heated saltwater pool with waterfall; it has a new pool heater (2020), pump (2021), and salt generator (2022). An open paver-lined patio is a perfect spot for a glass of wine when the weather is just right. Low HOA fees in this deed-restricted community include cable and internet. Social memberships to Sugarmill Woods and Southern Woods are available, starting as low as $60/month, which will get you access to a plethora of amenities, such as a country club, fitness center, community pool, and more. Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, where you can picnic and walk the nature trails, is less than 8 miles away. It's a short journey to Crystal River, the manatee capital of the world, with its spring-fed rivers, fishing, forests, and amazing restaurants. Avid golfers can rejoice in knowing that Cabot Citrus Farms, world-renowned for its first-class courses, is just minutes away; it will be opening up in December 2023 with 4 golf courses and other amenities. See this beauty in person, and fall in love!
