This spacious home is located in a very desirable, cul-de-sac neighborhood close to both Lake Placid and Sebring. The large lot fronts a pond, and wooded area, offering privacy and picturesque views. The "L" shaped living room opens to the kitchen and dining area. A "bonus" room off the kitchen and Florida room can serve as a den, office or overflow sleeping area. "Split" bedroom plan offers privacy. You will love your fully air conditioned Florida room, with windows on three sides and great views. You can open the windows during those many months of mild weather, or enjoy the views in the comfort of A/C while relaxing with friends after a day of golf, fishing or watching the nearby Sebring races. This home is move-in ready, fully furnished and kitchen equipped! Just bring your toothbrush! Hurry! NOTHING else available in this popular neighborhood and this one WON'T LAST!
