Set within Encore at Ovation in Horizon West, this former Sebring model home blends lock-and-leave convenience with a polished, move-in-ready feel. The first floor is all about everyday living and entertaining, with an open family room flowing into a thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring 42” shaker-style linen cabinets with crown and light rail, glass-front display doors, soft-close drawer stack, and a double pull-out trash drawer on the island. Grey Silestone Quartz counters, a single-bowl undermount sink, chevron-patterned tile backsplash, and a GE stainless gas range, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and under-counter beverage fridge create a cohesive, upgraded look, while LED under-cabinet lighting and added recessed cans keep the space bright and inviting. Tucked just beyond the main prep area, the walk-in pantry offers discreet, easily accessible storage for dry goods, bulky countertop appliances, and entertaining essentials, allowing the kitchen’s clean lines and upgraded finishes to take center stage. Upgraded tile carries through the foyer, powder bath, kitchen, and family room, complemented by designer paint, extensive trim work, upgraded interior hardware, and a stained handrail with painted spindles and wood treads on the staircase, giving the home a quietly upscale feel that is still practical to maintain. Upstairs, wood floors continue into the loft and hallway, where a built-in desk with storage offers a ready-made workspace or homework station. The primary suite sits privately at the rear of the home and includes a tray ceiling, wood flooring, sizable walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with two raised-height vanities, Silestone counters, rectangular undermount sinks, chrome fixtures, and an oversized walk-in shower finished with vertically stacked 4x16 tile to the ceiling, glass listello detail, recessed niche, and semi-frameless enclosure. Two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed bath with tiled tub/shower surround to the 9-foot ceiling and upgraded vanity top, while the nearby laundry room—with cabinets and a utility sink—keeps everything organized and out of sight. A tankless gas water heater, enhanced low-voltage wiring to support today’s smart-home and streaming needs, and abundant recessed lighting throughout add everyday comfort. Outside, an alley-loaded 2-car garage preserves the home’s charming streetscape, and the community’s resort-style pool, fitness center, and playground make it easy to enjoy the Florida lifestyle. With quick access to 429, Horizon West town centers, Flamingo Crossings Village, and the major employment and entertainment hubs around Winter Garden and the attractions area, this home offers the finish level of a model with the practicality of a well-planned primary residence, second home, or long-term hold.
