Overview

Enjoy affordable, low-maintenance living in the desirable 55+ Baytree community of Tavares, where life moves at a more relaxed, enjoyable pace. Ideal for snowbirds escaping harsh northern winters or full-time residents seeking a centrally located retreat, this home offers comfort, convenience, and connection. Arrive to a beautifully manicured lawn and mature landscaping, all maintained by the community, so your time is free for the things you enjoy most. Step inside to an open, light-filled floor plan with tranquil backyard pond views that create a peaceful backdrop for everyday living. High ceilings and a combined living and dining area enhance the sense of space, while sliding glass doors lead to a screened and covered lanai, perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or simply unwinding while enjoying the Florida breeze. An additional outdoor patio with covered awning provides the ideal spot for your grill. The split-bedroom layout offers privacy and flexibility, whether hosting overnight guests or creating a quiet home office away from the primary suite. The kitchen is both inviting and functional, featuring porcelain wood-look tile flooring, brand-new stainless-steel appliances (2025) and a cozy breakfast nook, ideal for casual meals. This home has been lovingly maintained with thoughtful updates, including a new hot water heater (2024), new carpet (2023), patio awning (2021), whole-house water filtration system, updated lighting and roof replaced in 2018, providing peace of mind for years to come. Baytree’s vibrant lifestyle includes access to a clubhouse, pool, library, fitness center, pickleball court, and a full calendar of social events, games, and monthly dinners. Lawn care and annual power washing are included with the low HOA fees, making day-to-day living truly effortless. Located just minutes from Tavares’ lively downtown entertainment district, lakes, shopping, and dining, this home invites you to relax, connect, and enjoy the very best of Central Florida living.
