229 CONSERVATORY DRIVE Set on a 0.65-acre homesite, one of the largest homesites in The Conservatory at Hammock Beach, this custom 2023 ICI Homes Monaco enjoys protected preserve views both behind and across the street, creating a rare sense of privacy, openness, and natural beauty. It sets the tone for everything this home delivers. Coffered ceilings define the formal dining room and great room, where 10-foot pocket sliding glass doors dissolve the line between inside and out, opening to a covered screened lanai overlooking a saltwater heated pool and spa. The chef's kitchen is where this home truly earns its place in the luxury market. Crisp white perimeter cabinetry rises to 42-inch uppers, topped with a second tier of glass-front display cabinets lit from within, and under-cabinet lighting illuminates the space throughout. The gas cooktop sits beneath a custom white wood hood, with double wall ovens on a dedicated built-in just steps away. The oversized island makes its own statement, warm walnut-toned cabinetry below with a built-in microwave drawer, a thick mitered-edge granite slab on top, with a single-bowl sink, dishwasher, and seating for the guests. A walk-in pantry with frosted glass atrium door, butler's pantry or wine bar with its own sink, soft-close doors, oversized drawers, pull-outs, dedicated trash pull, and a whole-house water treatment system round out a kitchen that works as beautifully as it looks. The primary suite is its own private wing. Dual walk-in closets, a freestanding soaking tub, frameless walk-in shower, separate vanities, and a connected exercise room with direct access to one of the two-car garages. Two secondary bedrooms feature ensuite baths. A third bedroom sits conveniently close to the pool bath, a thoughtful layout that flows naturally for everyday living. Step outside and the property expands again. The covered screened lanai and separate cabana deliver a full outdoor kitchen with weatherproof cabinetry and granite countertops. The detached guest casita offers a private suite, full bath, walk-in closet, and pre-wiring for surround sound, ready for whatever you envision. Travertine decking and lush preserve views complete an outdoor living experience that feels like a resort you never have to leave. Soaring 12-foot ceilings and 8-foot interior doors enhance the home's open, airy feel throughout. Designer lighting and a built-in surround sound system serve the main living and kitchen areas, and a whole-house Generac generator with two buried propane tanks ensures this home is as prepared as it is polished. A four-car garage with EV charging and 6, 453 total square feet complete the picture. Behind the guarded gates of Tom Watson's signature 18-hole championship course, with Hammock Beach Resort privileges, ocean access, and the ease of tax-friendly Florida living, this is the one that checks every box.
