The Wood Duck Island enclave in Grand Harbor captivates with sun-dappled walkways and drives, pale rose exteriors, red tile roofs, and a warm Andalusian ambiance created by award-winning postmodern architect Robert A.M. Stern.

Within a sunny, neighborly courtyard tiled with soft pink-hued pavers and landscaped with graceful palms and well-tended hedges. the tidy, two-story residence at 4922 Wood Duck Circle bids you welcome.

Within the small entrance courtyard, the front door opens into the foyer, which includes a charming powder room and convenient closet, and leads into the living, dining and kitchen spaces.

Virtually the entire first level is filled with wonderful, clear light pouring in through skillfully placed windows and glass doors. The home’s white palette showcases the interior design and offers a clean canvas for your own color and design preferences.

The beveled white Corian kitchen countertops are a fine contrast to the honey-hued, soft-close cabinetry, including a clever little coffee bar tucked in next to the stainless steel fridge. The two-basin, stainless steel sink sits below a wide double window looking out upon a garden courtyard.

Opposite the sink, a long and wide, “peninsula” counter provides drawer and cabinet storage and contains a full-length pass-through to the dining room.

Beneath a ceiling fan/light, the dining room adjoins the full-length, covered porch/lanai, opening to the outdoor space via glass French doors.

You’ll see that this open, light-filled space with a beam ceiling is very flexible for seating and dining set ups, so let your own taste and imagination be your guide.

Beyond the lanai is the pleasantly landscaped backyard with a fence high enough to provide privacy and lots of lovely plantings. There is plenty of room for a BBQ or casual gatherings.

A short hallway connects the kitchen and dining room to the living room and, along this hallway, within a slender alcove, you’ll find a convenient wet bar with glass/mirror shelves on either end and cabinet storage. Immediately across from the wet bar is a single, glass door to the lanai.

From the front/northeast corner, the living room itself is a versatile space, with two ceiling fan/lights, a pair of long, vertical windows facing the entrance porch and glass French doors to the lanai. The centerpiece of the room is a sleek black box fireplace with black hearth and white wood surround and mantle.

At the top of the carpeted staircase you’ll discover three cozily carpeted bedrooms.

The primary is a corner space with wide windows, great views, walk-in closet, ceiling fan/light, and a double door opening to a Juliet balcony.

The primary bathroom features an end-to-end white vanity with two oval sunken basins, full width mirror with bar lights and tan/gold hued countertops, along with a linen closet and shower.

The two guest bedrooms share a full bath with tub/shower. Both have tall double windows and ceiling fans, and one has a dramatic, soaring ceiling.

The Wood Duck neighborhood is located within the five-star country club community of Grand Harbor, which offers an extensive slate of first-class amenities. Situated along a main north/south thoroughfare – Indian River Boulevard – Grand Harbor is close to Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital and the vibrant mainland dining and art gallery district in downtown Vero Beach, with art events, live music, pubs and restaurants.

The community is even closer – 10 minutes or less by car – to Vero’s famous Village by the Sea, with fine and casual dining, beach shops and elite boutiques, live theater, an outstanding fine art museum, resorts, country clubs, parks, marinas and miles of clean, uncrowded Atlantic Ocean beaches with lifeguards stationed at popular swimming spots.
