Welcome to beautiful Lakeridge Falls, a 55+ community that will certainly impress you from it's manicured landscaping to it's wonderful and spectacular amenities. A cascading waterfall greets you as you enter the community which serves as a prelude to the shimmering ponds that are numerous throughout. This beautiful 2 bedroom/2 bathroom plus den garden villa overlooks one of these ponds with a magnificent Magnolia tree gracing it's shore. Perfect for bird watching from the enclosed lanai. Although the rear southern exposure offers lot of light the villa has 2 tubular skylights, one in the great room and one in the 2nd guest bathroom which only enhances the feeling of brightness. The den has an alcove for a TV which allows room for a pull out couch. Ideal for a potential 3rd bedroom in a pinch. You will love the corner windows in the den and the French doors. Makes a great reading room or office with wood style laminate flooring. You will be sure to notice the designer flairs from the paint colors to the crown molding in all the rooms. Provides for a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen has been updated with all wood cabinets with practical pull out shelving and a tile back splash that accents the cabinets. Of course attractive granite counter tops were part of the upgrade. Breakfast bar is perfect for those quick meals while the great room offers plenty of room for a formal dining table and living area. Washer and dryer are inside which is always a plus. Water heater was replaced in 2018 and A/C in 2015. Water filtration system is a good thing!
