Tucked within the prestigious guard-gated Silverthorn Golf...

Tucked within the prestigious guard-gated Silverthorn Golf Country Club community, this exquisite 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom estate blends timeless elegance, thoughtful craftsmanship, and serene golf course living. Meticulously maintained and tastefully upgraded, the home showcases soaring 12-foot ceilings, rich hardwood flooring, and over 70 custom cabinets and drawers thoughtfully placed throughout for optimal storage. The striking exterior features a wide pavered driveway, manicured landscaping, a Mediterranean-style tile roof, and eye-catching stone accents. Twin oversized 2-car garages with newer epoxy-coated floors are discreetly positioned on either side, offering ample room for vehicles, hobbies, or storage. A grand covered entry opens into a welcoming foyer flanked by a formal dining room on one side and a sophisticated office or den on the other, all grounded by elegant hardwood flooring. The formal living room centers around a stone gas fireplace and opens through sliding glass doors to a breathtaking lanai overlooking the 18th hole. Just beyond, the sunlit breakfast nook is surrounded by windows that maximize natural light and showcase the tranquil view. The heart of the home--a spectacular kitchen--is both functional and beautifully appointed with granite countertops and backsplash, a large center island with built-in wine racks and cabinetry, double convection wall ovens, a cooktop, a breakfast bar with double sink, and an exceptional volume of custom wood cabinetry beneath soaring ceilings. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a spacious family room featuring a dramatic triple trey ceiling, detailed crown molding, and another triple sliding door bringing the outdoors in. The luxurious primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with tray ceilings, crown molding, private lanai access, a full wall of windows offering sweeping golf course views, and dual walk-in closets. The spa-like ensuite bathroom offers a jacuzzi garden tub with views of a private courtyard (with water and electric hookups), a large walk-in shower, dual vanities, a seated vanity space, and a private water closet. A generously sized second bedroom (20x13) is ideal as an in-law or guest suite and features private access to a serene patio with golf course views. The screened lanai is a showstopper, boasting a heated pool and spa with an in-floor cleaning system, brick paver decking, and a covered outdoor kitchen area with sink and refrigerator. Additional upgrades include hurricane-rated windows, a central vacuum system, a security system, commercial-grade water softener, 2019 Rheem dual-zone HVAC systems with NP2 filters and UV light, a newer Rheem Prestige water heater, exterior paint (2017), and an irrigation well for landscape maintenance. Residents of Silverthorn enjoy resort-style amenities including an Olympic-sized pool, tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts, a fitness center, library, activity rooms, and a stately clubhouse with a restaurant, bar, ballrooms, and golf pro shop. Just 2.5 miles from the Suncoast Parkway, this location offers a direct and convenient commute to Tampa. Nearby attractions include Weeki Wachee Springs State Park (9.5 miles), Hernando Beach (14 miles), and the Nature Coast Botanical Gardens (6 miles), making this home a rare blend of luxury, lifestyle, and location.
