Within the gated community of the highly sought-after Portofino, this exceptional and meticulously cared for residence delivers a refined living and equestrian charm, with easy access to the Flowers Plantation shopping area. Set on ½ an acre and next to a manicured walking trail, the property is thoughtfully designed with an open floorplan, generous living spaces, natural light, and a seamless flow ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The gourmet kitchen, dining room and living all come together to keep guests engaged while you make meals. Off to the side, the sunroom offers a distinct level of privacy and tranquility. All of this and you would still be able to enjoy a cool evening on the screened in porch, overlooking the manicured back yard. The lower-level primary keeps your day to day living on one floor. His and hers closets compliment the oversized bathroom, with the laundry directly across the hall. Guests will have 3 different room to choose and two full bathrooms. Each bedroom has its own walk-in closet. The loft is oversized and more than comfortable for additional entertaining. In all of this, this home comes with nearly endless extras... Epoxy floor in the garage (guaranteed), custom window treatments throughout, custom wood work throughout, and more storage than you could fill. Residents of Portofino enjoy access to 7 miles of walking and riding trails, which ties into the Neuse River trail, in this equestrian neighborhood. This community is as compelling as it is uncommon. A unique opportunity to experience elevated living in one of Johnston County's most picturesque communities.
