3 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ Gran Paradiso SubDv. ⋅ 34293 Zip Code
Some homes check boxes. This one checks the ones buyers wait years for. This luxury late-build Estate-series Oakmont II is one of the most sought-after floor plans in the community and rarely available, finished after Gran Paradiso was proven and the best homesites were spoken for. There are only so many of these. This is one of them. This is a great-room plan that is very large and very open — full of light, with spectacular views from every window. The seller spared no expense creating a comfortable place to call home. Improvements were ongoing. None too big or too small if it meant making life more comfortable or this home more efficient. Luxury comfort features run throughout — the kind added when you know how a plan functions and lives because its been a home you loved. Step through the screened front entry and the story is in the details: crown molding throughout, tray ceilings in the living room and owner’s suite, and an open great room that lives for gathering. The kitchen centers on a new three-sided wrap-around wood-look island that is enormous — the upgrade that turns a good plan into a house to remember. Whole-house soft water and reverse-osmosis at the kitchen and fridge are already in. The owner’s suite offers private access to the pool. A secondary bedroom’s half bath doubles as a pool bath, so guests have convenient pool access. This rarely available popular split plan gives room to live and room to host — flexible space as a fourth bedroom, den, or office — plus a three-car garage with extra overhead storage and new high-end openers. A generous covered lanai makes outdoor living on this homesite routine. The flow from kitchen and great room to the lanai and water beyond feels finished, not builder-bare. Beyond the glass: a custom pool and spa on a large homesite (over 11,400 square feet), water view in front and preserve behind for beauty and privacy. No staring into a neighbor’s lanai — just water, greenery, and quiet Florida nights. New pool equipment (July 2026) keeps the outdoor package current. The landscaping is top-shelf — custom edging, stone beds, beautiful mature palms, multi-color cage lighting, and landscape spotlights that turn evenings into the reason you move to Florida. Custom outdoor pavers and irrigated planters keep the poolscape finished year-round. The custom pool cage uses a clear-view design that makes the most of this setting. Hurricane shutters on the windows, plus electric hurricane curtains on the lanai and front entry, make lock-and-leave real. Across Wellen Park, homes on comparable lots often ask more for less house. This home gives you more finished living on a large homesite than many higher-priced Wellen Park villages deliver. Gran Paradiso has been underpriced relative to those peers for a reason that will not last. Sold-out scarcity, amenities already open, and an Estate home on a large lot are catching up. Then there’s the address. Gran Paradiso is a gated resort lifestyle with the clubhouse, fitness, tennis and pickleball, and resort pool. Golf-cart distance to Downtown Wellen Park. Gulf beaches a short drive. Best Address and Wellen Park lifestyle in one move — without the start-over premium. This isn’t a starter story in Gran Paradiso. It’s the scarce late-build home with the hard work done, comfort and efficiency already in, and a value story versus similar-lot peers unlikely to stay this wide. That’s the opportunity. It won’t last long at this price.
