The home
About 517 Bay Hill Drive
Adjacent to multi-million dollar Big Canyon Country Club homes and a "Villas Townhome" that recently sold for $1,325,000 is this gorgeously remodeled gem. With your location being so important, consider this...This property was the model home when the development was first made available back in 1989. Why? Because it is in the center of the community, safely tucked away from any road noise and just steps away from the pool, spa, gym & club house facilities. Partial/obstructed views of the course can be seen from your patio or balcony (Without the hazards or costs of being directly on the golf course). Comfortably enter though your attached 2 car garage and step into a tastefully remodeled living area offering views of the fireplace & patio from the comfort of your sofa. New laminate & tile adorn the floors throughout and the kitchen was taken down to the bare walls to be fantastically recreated as you see it here in our photos. Head upstairs to an over-sized master suite replete with a sitting/desk area in front of a second fireplace and a dressing area situated between dual mirrored closets as you step into your lavish master bath boasting a soaking tub, separate shower, stone topped dual sink vanity and a private commode room. All this is fresh, new and built to the highest standards of quality and design. Come see why these units are in short supply and sell so quickly when they become available. Ideal for fans of Fashion Island, the Back Bay, easy freeway access and SNA.
