About this home
17475 OPAL SAND DRIVE UNIT 208
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. This is a rare opportunity in Wellen Park Golf and Country Club. This larger, end-unit condominium with included golf membership is one of the few of its kind available today. With new construction no longer offering golf privileges, this light-filled two-bedroom plus den residence stands out as both a lifestyle upgrade and a smart investment. Enjoy the best of Florida living with two screened-in lanais, a welcoming front porch and a private rear lanai with stunning golf course, lake and lush green views. The desirable end-unit position provides additional light, privacy and a sense of openness rarely found. Offering 1,568 sq. ft., this spacious and beautifully designed second-floor residence, in a two-story building, features an open-concept layout with vaulted ceilings that enhance the bright and airy living and dining areas with gorgeous views over the lake and golf course. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, showcasing quartz countertops, a generous island and a cozy breakfast nook looking out to the screened-in porch. Built just one year ago, the condominium offers a light, modern color palette and is in pristine, move-in-ready condition. A one-car garage adds convenience and extra storage. Residents enjoy access to an exceptional amenity package, including a beautifully maintained 18-hole golf course, putting green, pro shop, aqua range, tiki bar, tennis, pickleball, basketball and fitness center, with a new clubhouse coming in 2027. Ideally located close to shopping, dining, entertainment and the Gulf beaches, this is resort-style living at its finest.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
