Overview

BACK ON THE MARKET - buyer canceled due to personal reasons. Financing was completed as was the Inspection….this villa is READY TO GO! This stunning home is so well kept, it’s still like BRAND NEW…with UPGRADES! Welcome to this beautifully appointed Melrose model villa nestled in the highly sought-after Village of DeSoto in The Villages, Florida! This exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath home combines comfort, quality, and convenience—perfect for those ready to start enjoying The Villages lifestyle immediately. Every inch of this home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded to create a truly move-in-ready residence. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the home’s excellent curb appeal. The exterior showcases enhanced landscaping with decorative stone, mulch borders, manicured plantings, and LED soffit lighting that adds charm and security in the evenings. A screened front lanai with dual ceiling fans creates a welcoming first impression and a perfect place to enjoy morning coffee or greet neighbors. Step inside to a spacious open-concept floor plan designed for everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. The main living area features vaulted ceilings, crown molding, plantation shutters, designer lighting, and ceiling fans throughout. Large sliders open to a screened rear lanai overlooking a private fenced yard—ideal for pets, outdoor dining, or relaxing in peace. Fresh designer paint adds to the bright, airy, modern feel. The kitchen is the heart of the home, boasting gas appliances, a walk-in pantry, abundant cabinetry and counter space, plus an open bar perfect for casual dining or entertaining. The adjacent dining area flows seamlessly into the living room, creating a warm, inviting environment. The primary suite offers a tray ceiling with crown molding, a spacious walk-in closet, and an en suite bath with Roman walk-in shower, double vanities, and elegant finishes. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility—one with a custom built-in office workstation—and share a beautifully finished second bath. Additional highlights include natural gas heating, a two-car garage with ample storage, dual ceiling fans on both lanais, and low-maintenance exterior finishes. Located minutes from Magnolia Plaza, Brownwood Paddock Square, and the new Eastport Town Square, with easy access to shopping, dining, recreation, golf, and walking trails.
