Welcome to the Kennedy plan in Bayside at Ward Creek. This new, actively building community is located just 2 miles north of Highway 98, and just minutes to the "World's Most Beautiful Beaches" and shopping, dining and entertainment at Pier Park.
This is one of our most popular plans with grand open living space and modern interior features. Boasting over 2,100 square feet, the Kennedy features a thoughtful designed layout of five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a spacious two car garage.
As you enter the home, you will pass by the first hallway to two guest bedrooms which share a full bathroom. At the heart of the home, you will find a grand open concept living area, brightly lit by the many windows and glass back door. The large kitchen island sits overlooking the living area and dining for easy entertaining.
