Are you looking for a move-in ready home with all the Wow Factor? You got it, every time you walk in the front door. A pastoral lake view greets you from almost every room. Watch nature unfold in a back yard teeming with native Florida fauna and flora. This three bedroom + den, two bath, oversized 2 car garage pool home is situated in a green belt area and has been immaculately maintained by its original owners. This is a J&J built modified Victoria plan, with an expanded kitchen area, along with the addition of a bedroom immediately off the breakfast nook area. The bedroom features wood plank floors, a transom window for afternoon light and a sliding door to an outdoor patio area. The kitchen is finished with granite, tile backsplash, wet bar, plus over and under cabinet lighting. The great room and dining area features high volume, trayed ceilings, crown molding and stunning, full width sliding door views of the pool and lake. This home is ideally suited for people who work from home, or plan on entertaining guests. The den features wood plank floors, making it a comfortable and private home office. Ample closets, and thanks to an oversize garage, plenty of room for your Florida toys. The Lakes of Jacaranda is a very popular community with a low HOA fee (paid annually) and NO CDD. No worries about insurability, as the new tile roof went on in early 2021. The pristine pool cage was sanded, repainted and rescreened and looks brand new. The A/C was changed out in 2013. Accordion hurricane shutters thru out the home, too. Owners took the proactive measure to epoxy line the plumbing to prevent any slab leaks. Who needs new construction? This home has it all. Low annual association fee includes use of heated community pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and walking/biking trails. Lakes of Jacaranda is conveniently located near restaurants, stores, and some of the most pristine beaches and boating water on the Florida Gulf.
