The remodeled and renewed split bedroom home has an open concept kitchen/great room, engineered hardwood floors, updated bathrooms, plantation shutters, upscale materials, and quality craftsmanship you will appreciate. The master suite is a serene retreat with walk in closet, private bath, and direct access to the climate-controlled Florida room. What else will you like?

HOA amenities include free green fees on 3 private executive courses. The main clubhouse is the venue for entertainment & social events and you will like the friendly country club atmosphere. There's something for everyone - Tennis & pickleball leagues and clinics as well as shuffleboard, bocce & bowling leagues. Fitness programs year-round, and Arts & Crafts Studios & Classes including a Woodshop. The Lake Tarpon Lodge is a rustic retreat with a 2nd heated pool, party & picnic facilities, fishing pier, community pontoon boats, an open dock, boat ramp, and free RV or boat storage in a secure lot. It's all above the flood plain in a non-evacuation zone too. Don't hesitate - homes like this are rare!
