    Seller has outgrown this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home nestled in a gated community rich with amenities and charm. Since October 2023, the owners have poured over $30,000 into thoughtful upgrades, creating a modern, move-in-ready space. The kitchen is a standout, featuring brand-new cabinetry, extended countertops, added pantry space, and a widened entryway with a cutout to the living room—perfect for open-concept living. A custom half-wall for the fridge and added overhead cabinet maximize both style and storage. The entire home has been refreshed with new paint, baseboards, trim, blinds, a newly added hall closet, and practical laundry shelving. The kitchen’s popcorn ceiling is gone. Outside, the driveway has been professionally paved, flowerbeds revitalized, and the backyard cleared, offering a blank canvas for outdoor enjoyment. The previous owner had completed new vinyl siding, windows, deck, storm doors, and LVP prior to selling in 2023. the roof was replaced in 2021 by previous owner. This property is a dream for first-time homeowners and investors seeking an almost turnkey rental by providing them with a jump start on most of the basic of homes! Indulge in the luxurious amenities this Gated Community has to offer, including access to not one, but two championship 18-hole golf courses, lake with marinas for parking your boat, community pool, full service country club and the comfort of a gated guardhouse with security. Don't miss out on all of the wonderful community amenities, prime location to major highways and cities, shopping, restaurants and local parks.
