8359 CANDLEWOOD Road 8359 Virtually Staged. Welcome to your completely renovated, move-in ready villa-style home in the highly desirable Chateaux de Bardmoor-NOT your typical 55+ condo. Bright, open, and thoughtfully updated, it's a wonderful fit for full-time residents and also a true turnkey choice for absentee owners who want an easy, ready-to-enjoy home. Step inside and enjoy an open floor plan filled with natural light throughout the main living areas. The large, fully enclosed sunroom/bonus room offers the perfect space to relax, host, work, or simply enjoy Florida living. The renovated kitchen is beautifully appointed with stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, 42" upper cabinets, and an impressive 8 feet of 36" cabinets under the bar for extra storage. A dedicated dining room and spacious living area make entertaining-and everyday comfort-effortless. The oversized primary suite features a large closet plus an updated en-suite bath, along with an additional closet for even more storage. You'll also appreciate the bonus Florida room, ideal for a home office, hobby space, extra living area, or guest overflow. Off the kitchen, you will find an additional area that could be dining or a welcoming sitting area. Additional updates include fresh paint, updated bathrooms, new luxury vinyl flooring and baseboards, can lights in the kitchen, storm windows, and more. Outside, enjoy your paver patio-just add an umbrella and patio furniture for the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening conversation. Location is a big part of the appeal: Chateaux de Bardmoor offers quick access to the white, sandy Gulf beaches, golf courses, grocery stores, the VA, and BayCare Outpatient Center in Bardmoor. Community perks include a clubhouse with planned events, pool, shuffleboard, library, billiards, and ping-pong. Additional home highlights: attached 1-car garage, roof (2021), washer/dryer, blinds, and storm windows. Come see why this villa is so special-bright, updated, and ready for you to enjoy the good life today!
