You will love the location of this beautifully landscaped and spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bath home, only 3 1/2 miles from Manasota Key Beach and boat ramp, and even closer to shopping. Not located in a flood zone. This charming community has only 80 villas, no age restrictions, is pet friendly, and includes a clubhouse, pool, and hot tub; plus you will never have to mow your own lawn again! The screened and private entryway is large and bright, with a huge skylight that was just replaced a year ago. Entering the front door you will immediately notice the beautiful new vinyl plank flooring and how open and spacious this home feels. Directly to the right is the guest bedroom & bath, which can be easily closed off with the pocket door to be a second master suite. The updated kitchen features neutral wood-toned cabinets with tiled backsplash, and beautifully contrasting countertops to make decorating fun. The eat-in kitchen with sliding glass doors opens up to the private lanai creating even more open space and sunshine. The formal dining area also has sliding glass doors to lead out to a courtyard style atrium, which features a new pergola that was completed in Fall of 2020. The generous master bedroom includes built-in shelving with plenty of drawers, plus a large walk-in closet for even more storage. The en-suite master bath has its own linen closet, multiple small cabinets, walk-in shower with glass sliding doors, a modernized toilet, and updated dual sink vanity. The Bahama shutters on the exterior windows are a decorative touch with an added safety benefit during hurricane season. The two-car garage features a workbench and lots of shelving, along with a multi-use utility sink installed just outside the interior laundry room door. This home has been lovingly maintained with additional random updates including new locks, paint, screens, LED light fixtures, etc. Come and take a look today because this home is priced to sell!
