FOR SALE – 3130 SOUTHERN OAKS DR MERRITT ISLAND
For Nikki McCoy Freeman, who takes viewers inside the property in a new video tour, the setting is what immediately makes the home stand out.
“There’s just something about South Merritt Island,” Nikki McCoy Freeman said. “The mature trees, larger homesites and quiet streets give it such a relaxed, established Florida feel. This home captures that beautifully.”
A Backyard Made for Florida Living
The outdoor living space is a major highlight of 3130 Southern Oaks Drive.
An oversized screened lanai surrounds a solar-heated, nine-foot-deep swimming pool, creating a private setting designed for year-round Florida living.
The backyard also features a summer kitchen, outdoor shower, fenced yard and mature fruit trees, with plenty of room for entertaining, relaxing by the pool or spending an afternoon outside with family and friends.
“When people talk about wanting the Florida lifestyle, this is the kind of outdoor space they’re picturing,” Bobby Freeman said. “You have the pool, a huge screened lanai, summer kitchen and a private backyard — it really becomes another living area of the home.”
An Open Chef’s Kitchen Designed for Gathering
Inside, the heart of the home is an expansive open chef’s kitchen centered around a dramatic nine-foot quartz island.
The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, double ovens, double sinks, a professional-grade cooktop, custom backsplash, Butler’s pantry and maple cabinetry.
The open layout connects the kitchen with the surrounding living areas, while large-format 3-foot-by-3-foot polished porcelain tile adds a sophisticated finish throughout the main living spaces.
“That kitchen is going to get a lot of attention,” Bobby Freeman said. “The size of the island alone makes an impression, but it’s also an incredibly functional space. It was designed for people to gather.”
Five Bedrooms With Space to Adapt
The home offers five bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, but its flexible floor plan provides considerably more versatility.
A spacious upstairs bonus room can function as a sixth bedroom, executive office, media room or additional living space.
The private primary suite also has an adjoining flex room that could be used as a home office, fitness room, nursery or sitting area.
A 2019 roof with a transferable warranty adds another important feature for prospective buyers.
“One of the things we really like about this home is that the space isn’t locked into one particular use,” Nikki McCoy Freeman said. “There are so many ways to make the floor plan work for how you live.”
