Presenting for the first time ever to the market, the grand 1247 Darlington Oak Circle NE. Located on a lakefront lot in the gated neighborhood of Placido Bayou, this custom-built home features five bedrooms, three and a half baths, and formal living spaces, all spanning over 3,145sqft on one single floor. The front door opens through the foyer to your formal living spaces, paired with high ceilings and tall windows, which continue throughout the home. These gathering spaces are just the beginning of a layout that is an absolute dream! The floor plan is thoughtfully designed, the perfect combination of formal and relaxed, open, yet still private. Each bedroom is connected to a bath and includes an incredible amount of closet space. The 5th bedroom, currently used as a home office, is stately and set quietly in the front of the home. The kitchen is spacious, with gorgeous granite counter tops, double oven, center island, and an impressive amount of cabinet space, all maple. Apart from the formal dining space, the kitchen offers an eat in area and a breakfast bar, both open to the stunning living room at the heart of the home. The living room, while exceptionally large, is still cozy, with a wood burning fireplace, dry bar, and views of the pool and lake. The master suite sits privately, yet easily accessible to the rest of the home, including your private pool deck, and is paired with two walk-in closets and a large en suite bathroom. Thoughtful finishes, like ginger wood flooring, elegant crown molding and baseboards (7 inches in some rooms), tray ceilings, arched windows, and arched doorways can be found throughout. Even every day features, such as the laundry room and pantry, are spectacular in this home. The welcoming spirit of the home continues with the exterior, which is set in front of a stunning lake view. The pool deck is screened, and includes a full outdoor kitchen inclusive of a Big Green Egg smoker. With pocket sliding glass doors that open to the living spaces, the pool deck is the ideal setting for entertaining family and neighbors in all seasons. Lastly, but certainly not least, the highly-coveted, three car garage offers plenty of room for parking and storage, with built-in cabinets and a work bench. All of this and more, ready for your own personal touch. The neighborhood of Placido Bayou is a paradise, with lakes for fishing, paths for running, and plenty of trees for shade. This escape is also conveniently located just minutes from downtown St Pete's waterfront with endless dining, shopping, world class arts and events, and a short drive from beaches and airports. Welcome home to the Florida lifestyle at its absolute best!
