New roof (2021) with 15-year transferable warranty. New HVAC (2020) with 10 years left on warranty. Over $50,000 in upgrades, and every single one was done right. Some homes get flipped. This one got loved. A kitchen that was completely reimagined, not just refreshed. Paint, lighting, fixtures, flooring—everything deliberate, nothing skipped. And here's the best part: you're buying a massive 7,800 sq ft corner lot that you actually own. No land lease. No landlord. Just you and your deed. The kitchen was remodeled in 2021 with Whirlpool appliances, elegant Corian counters, and a Delta touch faucet with an instant hot water dispenser. It's one of those tiny upgrades that changes your morning routine forever. Wide plank luxury vinyl flows through the main spaces. Fresh carpet in both bedrooms. It all feels current, crisp, intentional—not like someone threw builder-grade everything at it and called it done. Let's talk storage, because this is rare. Master suite has three closets. Guest bedroom has two. The master bath got a full refresh with a modern toilet, new vanity, the works. Every light fixture, ceiling fan, and faucet throughout the home was replaced. These aren't the kinds of upgrades that show up in listing photos, but they're the ones you notice every single day. That front porch though. Twenty-three feet long. Fully enclosed. Usable year-round. It's going to become your favorite room and you won't even see it coming. Coffee at sunrise. A book in the afternoon. A glass of wine at dusk. It's the kind of space that makes Florida living make sense. The screened lanai has a separate enclosed laundry room with a 2021 Whirlpool washer and dryer included. The yard is beautifully landscaped with an automatic irrigation system running on well water, so it stays green without you lifting a finger. Circular driveway was repaved in October 2021. Custom gutters added May 2023. Even the windows are tinted for energy efficiency and privacy. Somebody really thought this through. Your HOA is just $106 per month. That's it. And for that you get pool access, trash service, and full use of the amenities including a newly heated pool, lakeside bathhouse with sun deck, shuffleboard, bocce, horseshoes, and a clubhouse with a full kitchen, library, and card room. The community is golf cart-friendly. You've got direct lake access for boating and fishing. And yes, pets are welcome in this section. Lake Tarpon Village is one of the premier 55+ communities in the area, and you're minutes from shopping, restaurants, medical care, and Gulf Coast beaches. Tampa and Clearwater airports are both easy drives. This is a 2-bed, 2-bath home where the expensive stuff is already done and done right. You own the land. The roof is covered. The HVAC is covered. The kitchen is stunning. The lot is huge. This wasn't flipped by investors looking to cash out. This was maintained by a family who lived here, cared about it, and treated it like it mattered. You don't find homes like this often. Schedule a showing today.
