Elegance meets resort-style living at 1972 Annika Drive, a lightly lived-in showcase home poised along the fairways of Lake Elmos acclaimed Royal Golf Club. Curb appeal begins with shake-style siding, stone accents and an oversized heated three-car garage, then continues inside where wide-plank hardwoods, crisp millwork and coffered ceilings frame panoramic golf-course views. An entertainers kitchen anchors the main level, highlighted by an impressive Wolf/Sub-Zero appliance suite, Cambria (quartz) island seating four, soft-close cabinetry and a walk-in pantry. Dining and great-room spaces flow effortlessly to a vaulted, fully screened seasonal porch outfitted with a built-in gourmet grilling station and vent hoodperfect for year-round cookoutsplus an adjacent open-air deck, ideal for morning coffee above the greens. The main-floor primary retreat enjoys those same long fairway vistas, a spa bath with oversized tile shower, freestanding soaking tub and custom wardrobe closet, while a front study/flex room and mud-laundry wing complete the level.
