LOW HOA ($85 a month), COMMUNITY RESORT POOL, GYM, POND VIEW, Roof 2015, NEW CARPETS. 2600 sq ft with SEPARATE DINING ROOOM (or use as office, den, library), and 2.5 BATHROOMS. LARGE LANAI over looking PRESERVE AND POND. New cabinetry replaced in late 2023 and early 2024, new baseboards, redesigned FRAMELESS SHOWER. GATED at night, and best of all LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATIONS. Walk to Publix, Starbucks, Panera + more. LIDO, ST ARMANDS, DOWNTOWN only about 3-4 miles away. LONG, GRANITE TOPPED ISLAND in the kitchen easily sits 4-5: The chef will appreciate that the stove EXHAUST OUT of the kitchen through the ceiling. Lots of cabinets and drawers in tip-top condition, some with pull-out shelving, another plus. As if 2600 sq. ft. is not big enough, look for EXTRA STORAGE which winds around under the stairway, and in the garage which has a protected space for your extra refrigerator. Upstairs the two other bedrooms are bright and sunny, and the back bedroom overlooks the OASIS-LIKE POND with protected, WOODED PRESERVE beyond. Upstairs, between the two bedrooms, is a large space designed for a theater (the cable box against the far wall) or a pool table might be nice, or just a playroom for the little ones. Multi-purpose just waiting for your creativity. The TILE roof has been recently cleaned, all the windows washed and the paver driveway, walkway and lanai have also been recently pressure-washed. Plenty of room beyond the lanai or put in a private pool, or just copy the neighbors who have extended the screen, and added pavers to make an outdoor-covered space to enjoy the sunset and weather in total comfort. No need to add your own pool because your HOA fee includes a RESORT-STYLE COMMUNITY POOL. Love the gym, the bocci ball court, the dog park, and fountains throughout the community. Public transportation on University is a mere block away and various medical offices are just beyond the gate. We challenge you to find a newer home this size with these amenities this close to the airport, to downtown, to the Asolo. In terms of schools: Depending on space, timing, schools may be chosen.
