This 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home offers a relaxed Florida lifestyle with peaceful pond views and inviting indoor-outdoor living spaces. From the moment you arrive, lush tropical landscaping and a welcoming presence set the tone. Inside, the home features an updated kitchen with granite countertops and high-grade cabinetry, providing a functional and stylish gathering space for everyday living and entertaining. Expansive newer windows and doors (2020) allow natural light to fill the home while framing serene views of the pool and water beyond. Step outside to an oversized screened porch overlooking the resort-style pool and tranquil pond, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, afternoon swims, or quiet evenings enjoying nature. The paver pool deck and private dock enhance the feeling of having your own backyard getaway. Important updates include HVAC replacement in 2022 and roof in 2011, offering added peace of mind. While the home has been thoughtfully improved, there remains opportunity for a new owner to add personal touches and further enhance the space. Ideally located just minutes from Robinson Preserve and De Soto National Memorial, and a short drive to Gulf beaches, local restaurants, shopping, and highly regarded schools, this property combines lifestyle, location, and potential in one appealing package.
