Supplements: There is only one other home in this secluded part of the gated Judith's Fancy community, making the home private, and the sounds of birds chirping your only distraction. As you drive onto the property you are greeted by Royal Palms flanking the driveway. Caribbean style planters' chairs sit on the patio. Dramatic arches as you enter the foyer and formal sitting room, the gorgeously decorated Blue Room. The furnishings are so beautiful you may be distracted from the sea views outside the impact resistant sliders that open onto a bright and comfy seating area above the pool, kept cool by 4 ceiling fans. The formal dining room has seating for 8 and easy access to the kitchen through a pass-through arch. A gorgeous glass sideboard and antique dresser house all your table linens and serving pieces. Your dinner guests seated on the east side of the table, will see the twinkling lights of Salt River and Clairmont while they dine. The kitchen is an utter masterpiece - a hub for the home as well as a chef's dream. Highlights include a 12-foot island with bar sink, granite countertops, GE Monogram appliances and more storage than you will ever be able to fill. Cabinets are a mix of glass front and enclosed solid wood with beautiful arches and engraved details. Another almost 30 feet of counterspace; spice rack pullout storage drawers flank the range that has four burners, grill and a griddle sections. Two five-foot-tall glass front cabinets for all your crystalware sit on either side of the pass through arch to the dining room.
