Overview
Welcome home to this updated, move-in ready Palm Harbor retreat in the sought after 55 plus community of Highland Lakes. From the moment you arrive, it is clear this two bedroom, one and a half bathroom home on almost ¼ acre of land has been truly cared for. Inside, nearly 1,300 square feet of inviting living space unfolds in a layout that feels both open and comfortable. The living and dining area flows seamlessly into a spacious family room where a vaulted ceiling and bay window fill the space with soft natural light. It is the perfect spot for morning coffee, quiet afternoons or hosting friends. The kitchen feels fresh and functional with a new range and a pantry that offers generous storage space. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated over recent years, including the main bath which features an easy access low curb shower and safety bars for peace of mind. Throughout the home you will find wood laminate flooring and tile, generous closets in both bedrooms plus extra hallway storage and a convenient interior laundry room with washer and dryer included. The oversized one car garage provides space for a vehicle and a golf cart, and the widened driveway and expanded front porch give you extra room to welcome guests. Major expenses have already been taken care of, with a 2025 AC, a 2023 roof, and a 2024 sprinkler system update. This home not only offers comfort inside but also acts as a gateway to an unbeatable lifestyle. Highland Lakes is known for its incredible affordable amenities and vibrant social atmosphere. Residents enjoy free golf on three private executive courses, active pickleball and tennis leagues, shuffleboard, bocce, bowling, fitness programs, arts and crafts, a woodshop and a well loved library.
