132 Rainbow Street, Merritt Island, FL 32952
COMMUNITY AND SURROUNDING AREA:
Tucked in between the Banana and Indian Rivers, this lovely Merritt Island neighborhood is aptly called "Tropical Paradise". The coastal community is one turn off the riverside's scenic Tropical Trail corridor and boasts a boulevard dappled with palm trees and pool homes on oversized properties. The enclave is equidistant from the State Road 520/Merritt Island Causeway to the north and the Pineda Causeway to the south, both leading eastward to the beaches and west to the mainland and I-95. A twelve-minute trip takes you to Pineda Beach Park, a sandy public oceanfront venue. A long list of shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences is located nearby. Tropical Elementary is a seven-minute drive, Jefferson Middle School is six minutes, and Merritt Island High is fourteen minutes. It's a fourteen-minute commute to Patrick Space Force Base and about twenty minutes to the Kennedy Space Center. Northrop Grumman and the Harris Corporation campuses are all less than half an hour.
PROPERTY SUMMARY:
Settled on nearly half an acre, next to a glistening lake, this grand pool home showcases a NEW tile roof and a NEW air-conditioning system! Towering palm trees wave over a brick-accented driveway leading up to a columned, pavered front entry. Stained-glass double doors etched with rich green tropical plants open to a world of enchanting custom details! Crown-molded, trayed, and coffered ceilings outline hardwood floors and tile laid in a French Versailles pattern. Big windows in all shapes and sizes welcome tons of natural light, as plantation shutters regulate the right amount of sunshine. Tall vertical windows punctuated with a charming window seat add a dramatic feel to the formal living room and frame sparkling views of the pool. A coffered ceiling and a columned art niche create architectural finesse in the formal dining area designed for elegant affairs and festive feasts. An arched doorway thoughtfully separates the formal spaces from the comfortable casual expanses. Bright and generously sized, the family room features a triple slider to the backyard oasis, along with built-in shelving for television and other high-tech media. Flowing into the granite island kitchen, scads of cabinetry, a wine cooler, stainless steel appliances, under-mount lighting, a brick-style backsplash, a wall oven, and a stacked microwave cater to all your culinary cravings. The breakfast bar is ideal for after-school snacks and encourages party guests to gather 'round the chef. Butted glass curves around the casual dining nook flaunting sunny poolside scenes, an inviting spot for family meals! This layout is perfect for indoor/outdoor entertaining, mixing, and mingling with your favorite folks! Double doors introduce a relaxing owner's retreat appointed with a glass door to the lanai and a delightful bay window overlooking the pool. A proper dressing area exhibits a vanity with a three-sided mirror and double walk-in closets. Separate stone-topped sinks, a sumptuous soaking tub, and a tumbled tile shower complete the deluxe suite. An adjacent bedroom is convenient for an office, a baby nursery, or an exercise room. Across the home, two more sizable bedrooms are serviced by a tub/shower bath with attractive herringbone tile accents and a stone vanity. It's a pleasant set-up for kids or in-laws. The third bath is ultra-convenient for water-soaked kiddos and outdoor guests, with a pedestal sink, a tiled shower with raised insets, and a frosted glass door to the pool. A separate hallway presents a mudroom mentality, offering entries to both the extended three-car garage and the laundry room. The custom-fit bench next to each is a handy spot to remove shoes or drop off backpacks. Cabinetry and a tailor-made desk equip the large laundry room with plenty of storage space and a distinctive platform for sewing or crafts.
