Room to spread out in Ashley Cove

Set on more than half an acre behind the gates of Ashley Cove, this five-bedroom, four-bath home was built for both everyday living and having people over. The layout puts the primary suite and a second bedroom with a full bath on the first floor, which works well for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Upstairs there are more bedrooms and a large loft that can be a game room, media room, or play space.

The main floor is open and bright, with soaring ceilings, a grand staircase, and a kitchen that looks out over the family room. Out back, the screened saltwater pool was resurfaced in 2019, and the covered lanai runs the length of the home with an outdoor kitchen and a new grill. There is plenty of yard beyond the screen, plus a rare detached 20 by 20 workshop with electric, water, a workbench, and a double garage door.

The big-ticket items are already handled, including a 2018 roof and HVAC systems replaced in 2020 and 2022, along with a three-car garage and an extended paver driveway with side parking. The community is gated and quiet, close to NeoCity, SunRail, Lake Nona, Orlando International Airport, and the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes. The HOA is low at $900 a year, and the pool table and game table stay with the home.
