16726 COURTYARD LOOP Welcome to 16726 Courtyard Loop — a stunning Cardel Homes St. Lucia model nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after Bexley community in Land O' Lakes. From the moment you arrive, the craftsmanship and attention to detail that Cardel is known for is immediately evident. Step inside and be greeted by soaring 12-foot ceilings and an open-concept layout that fills every room with natural light. The split bedroom floor plan offers the perfect balance of privacy and functionality — ideal for families, guests, or anyone who values their own space. The heart of the home is the chef-inspired kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, granite countertops, and a range hood — designed for both everyday cooking and entertaining in style. The spacious primary suite is privately situated on one side of the home and features a large walk-in closet and a luxurious en suite bathroom complete with dual sinks and a separate tub and shower. On the opposite side of the home, two of the secondary bedrooms share a convenient Jack and Jill bathroom — perfect for kids or guests — while a fourth bedroom offers additional flexibility for visiting family or a private retreat. A dedicated bonus flex space serves beautifully as a home office, den, or study — giving you the versatility to make this home truly work for your lifestyle. Beyond the living spaces, this home is loaded with thoughtful upgrades: double insulation for improved energy efficiency, a tankless gas water heater, water softener, and a dedicated under-sink drinking water filtration system. The oversized 3-car garage provides ample space for vehicles, storage, or that workshop you've always wanted. Out back, the screened rear porch overlooks a peaceful conservation view — no rear neighbors, just nature. A pool outlet is already in place, making it easy to add your own backyard oasis when you're ready. Located minutes from top-rated schools, Conner Preserve, parks, trails, shopping, and dining — with convenient access to major Tampa destinations — this home checks every box. Low HOA, CDD included in taxes, and priced at $276/sq ft for a Cardel-built home in Bexley? That's the deal. This is not just a house. This is a Cardel St. Lucia in Bexley — and those don't last.
