6144 Ceres St., Englewood, FL 34224

There is an intangible quality to this home that conveys the sense you’ve stepped into a storybook tale, one with a very happy ending. The kitchen is an island that blends seamlessly into the family room with passages to the guest bedrooms. This open floor plan means the chef can stay engaged with family and guests while doing kitchen prep and entertaining. The screened-in back porch is ideal for outdoor lounging. It is shaded by one of 2 majestic oak trees that create the soothing sound of leaves rustling in the subtropical breezes. The backyard is also ideal for bird watching. And while the charming allure of this home is a big plus, there is another quality to this home that can save you thousands of dollars annually. This home was built to save you money. Lots of it! First, it was built in an X-flood zone. That means the elevation is so high, most lenders will waive the flood insurance requirement. That alone can save you $1500 a year. The efficient design and size of this 1,225 sf, pool-free home means lower property taxes, lower insurance premiums, lower maintenance costs, and lower energy costs. The low maintenance yard sustains itself with rain water. The septic system cuts the water bill in half by eliminating wastewater charges. And the ceramic tile eliminates carpet replacement and cleaning costs. The furnishings are negotiable under a separate agreement. Please CLICK the VIRTUAL TOUR for 100+ HD PHOTOS!
