This 3-bedroom, 2-bath condo lives more like a single-family home than a condo. Located on the first floor, the high ceilings immediately create an open, home-like feel. The remodeled kitchen features beautiful Shaker-style cabinetry topped with luxurious quartz countertops, newer appliances, abundant cabinet storage, and a generous workspace - perfect for the home chef. An extended countertop provides casual seating, or enjoy meals just steps away in the dedicated dining area. Beautiful wood laminated flooring in the main living rooms add a sophisticated feel. A storage pantry at the entrance holds a ton of things like your vacuume, small tools and more. A water filter system is also in place. The spacious primary bedroom offers direct access to the lanai. The en-suite bath includes dual sinks, a walk-in shower, and an oversized walk-in closet with ample storage. Coastal-themed furnishings are included, and the third bedroom, currently used as an office/den features a pull-out sofa for additional guests. The second bathroom includes a tub and extra cabinetry for added convenience. An in-unit washer and dryer are tucked neatly into their own space, and a charming coffee bar adds both function and flair. Step outside to the large lanai with a sunshade, which opens directly to the community pool and chickee hut dining area, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Now let's get real for a moment. Do you know what many people moving from up north miss most when they buy a condo? Not family. Not friends. Not even the snow. It's a garage...one that leads right into their home. And this condo delivers. Enjoy your own private one-car garage with room for your vehicle, storage, and yes, even that snow shovel that made the trip to Florida. This property features hurricane-rated windows and sliders and is built at a high elevation, having weathered past storms with no ill effects. The association is in excellent financial shape, and the grounds are meticulously maintained. Restaurants, bars, grocery stores, shopping, banking, medical offices, and more are just steps away. Come take a look and be amazed at everything this home offers for the money. Being sold turnkey, with all furniture, kitchenware, and linens included.
