Overview
Beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath, 2-car garage home ideally situated on the golf course in the highly sought-after 55+ community of Highland Lakes. Outstanding curb appeal welcomes you with mature, lush landscaping and a paver driveway. Major updates include a 2020 roof, 2025 A/C, 2020 hot water heater and impact-rated windows throughout most of the home, complemented by stylish plantation shutters. The spacious primary suite offers direct access to the Florida room through sliding glass doors, along with tranquil golf course views, a large walk-in closet, and an additional built-in closet. The en-suite bath has been tastefully semi-updated with granite countertops, wood cabinetry, and a walk-in shower. The living and dining rooms share attractive wood-look laminate flooring, and the living area also opens to the Florida room through another set of sliders, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor feel and showcasing the beautiful golf course setting. The remodeled kitchen is both spacious and inviting, featuring wood cabinetry, granite countertops that coordinate with both bathrooms, stainless steel appliances, disposal, newer recessed lighting, and a cheerful eat-in area. Just off the kitchen, you’ll find the dedicated inside laundry room with washer, dryer, utility sink, and storage cabinets, as well as separate access to the 2-car garage which houses a newer electrical panel and water heater. Nearby, the guest wing includes a generously sized second bedroom with built-in closet and an updated guest bath with granite countertop, newer faucet and vanity, recessed lighting, and a tub/shower combo with sliding shower doors. The large family room features vaulted ceilings and is highlighted by a striking oversized window installed by the owner, perfectly framing the golf course and pond views. Both family room windows are outfitted with stylish motorized accordion blinds. The massive Florida room spans the length of the home and is filled with natural light from its many windows, offering expansive views of the golf course. Located in a non-flood zone and no evacuation zone, this home is in one of communities most desirable settings. Highland Lakes is known for its active lifestyle and impressive amenities, including three private 9-hole golf courses, two clubhouses with a wide variety of social activities, two community pools with the main pool featuring a heated spa, plus tennis, pickleball, bocce, and shuffleboard. Beautiful Lake Tarpon is nearby, and residents enjoy access to two community pontoon boats, a private boat ramp, and RV/boat storage, all included in the monthly fee. Hurry to schedule your showing, because this one won't last long!
