Location: Hobe Sound, Florida Central East, Florida, USA (40 miles North from PBI on I-95)
Accommodations: Single Family Home, 3 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 6)
Situated at the end of a quiet residential street in Hobe Sound, with direct access to the Intercoastal Waterway, is a gated community of 47 homes called Governors Landing. Few ever have a chance to rent here, as most all residents are full time Floridians.
This immaculate, beautifuly decorated home has limestone-style tile flooring throughout featuring a comfortable Ralph Lauren sectional in the living room, Chinese antique accents and an emphasis on the sophisticated and eclectic. There is a wonderful open floor plan, with living, dining and kitchen and three bedrooms. The split bedroom layout insures privacy for the spacious master suite, with king-sized bed, which is newly carpeted and has a garden-style jacuzzi tub and huge walk-in closet. There are fully retractable sliding doors which open the entire living space up to the screened pool lanai overlooking private and lush, manicured property. The fully equiped kitchen has a sunny breakfast room, also opening to the pool. Guest accomodations include a second bedroom with bath and Queen sized bed. Off the living room is a den/bedroom with built-in queen-sized,'Murphy'bed.
Included is a 35 foot deep water dock with water and power. The dockage is just off the Intercoastal waterway, approximately a 500 foot walk from the house, where Mangrove clumps provide shelter to Manatee and all manner of fish and wildlife. Boat rentals of all types by the day, week or month are available in near-by Jupiter. It is 30 minutes by water to the St. Lucie Inlet, five minutes to Peck Lake and the ocean beaches there, only accessible by water.
The house is perfectly sited to catch the morning sun in the kitchen, the afternoon sun in the pool area, and the moonrise over the lanai, as well as the usual evening tropical breezes!
Truly a dream of 'Old Florida' meeting today's upscale standards.
The property is available for the 2008 season with a lease/purchase option.
