8865 New Castle Drive $749,000

Enjoy a southwest, commanding view of the beautiful 5th Green at the Crown Colony Golf Club through a picture frame screened lanai and pool from this very unique Areca model. This floorplan was enlarged by the builder at construction with an added bedroom and bath, making this the only 2,359 sq ft, 4/3 model of its type. The new flat tile roof was just installed in December 2024 and the house can be made storm ready quickly with electric roll-down shutters at all the large openings with easy to install clear lexan shutters at the windows. Newer LVP flooring was installed in the main living areas, the primary bedroom and the 4th bedroom. Bedrooms 2 and 3 have new carpeting just installed. The kitchen and all 3 baths have tile flooring. White plantation shutters cover interior windows. The HOA is very well run with low quarterly fees providing all lawn maintenance on a weekly schedule, 24x7 attended gated access, a community pool, hot tub, 4 Har-Tru tennis courts, and well-equipped fitness center open 24x7. Comcast fiber-optic cable and the Xfinity X1 platform with up to 4 TV/DVR boxes, and high-speed Wi-Fi Internet, are all part of the dues - over a $750 quarterly value at retail. Social or golf membership at The Golf Club at Crown Colony is optional. And there is no waitlist for golf membership! This Club was chosen for the 2022 LPGA $1.5M Drive-On Championship, hosting the world's top women golfers, and is also used for PGA qualifying events.
