Listing Price: $819,000
Description of Property
Tucked within the highly sought-after Florida Days community, 1817 Cattail Drive presents a rare opportunity to own a beautifully crafted Hickson Construction residence that effortlessly blends timeless “Old Florida” charm with modern coastal living. Built in 2019 and thoughtfully upgraded throughout, this 3-bedroom home—with a flexible 4th bedroom or office and 2.5 baths—welcomes you with a signature Florida shell walkway and glowing New Orleans-style copper gas lanterns, setting the tone for the character and craftsmanship found within. Inside, the open-concept design is both refined and functional, featuring custom built-ins across the entry, living room, and kitchen. The heart of the home is a true chef’s kitchen, complete with a gas range and pot filler, an oversized island designed for gathering, and an expansive butler’s pantry that elevates everyday living and entertaining. French oak wood flooring flows throughout the main living spaces, adding warmth and understated elegance. The primary suite is a private retreat, highlighted by a custom board and batten feature wall and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a beautifully tiled walk-in shower, and a generously sized walk-in closet. Beyond the home, Florida Days captures the essence of coastal Southern living. Set across 113 acres along the scenic Spruce Creek Preserve in the Turnbull Bay area of New Smyrna Beach, this thoughtfully designed community embraces nature at every turn. Winding beneath century-old oaks and framed by grand pines and native palmettos, residents enjoy over 35 acres of preserved green space, including wooded parks and tranquil walking trails. Wildlife sightings—from egrets to deer and wild turkeys—are part of the everyday landscape, creating a peaceful, connected lifestyle. Just minutes away, Doris Leeper Spruce Creek Preserve offers an extension of this natural beauty, easily accessible by car, bike, or foot. Spend your mornings exploring scenic trails like Sunset Bluffs with sweeping marsh views, climb the observation tower for a panoramic look over the estuary, or launch a kayak into the pristine waters of Spruce Creek. With opportunities for hiking, biking and wildlife viewing—including protected species like gopher tortoises, scrub jays, and even manatees—this preserve brings a rare blend of recreation, history, and Old Florida landscape right to your doorstep. With its inviting front porch, timeless architecture, and curated upgrades, this home delivers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and modern convenience—just moments from everything New Smyrna Beach has to offer. Schedule your private showing and experience it for yourself.
