One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to your ideal Florida retreat! Nestled in the charming community of Englewood, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with a 2-car garage is just minutes from stunning Gulf beaches, top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and endless recreation options. It offers a great foundation for your Florida dream, including room to park your toys! This beautiful home offers a blend of comfort and convenience. Situated in a non-HOA neighborhood, this property is ideal for those seeking a relaxed and enjoyable Florida lifestyle. Step inside through a cozy front porch, and you’ll immediately feel at home in the bright, open living space, where large windows and French doors flood the area with natural light. The open floor plan connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen, making it ideal for entertaining and daily living. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances, granite countertops, ample cabinetry, and a convenient breakfast bar, ensuring every meal is a joy to prepare. The spacious primary suite provides a tranquil retreat with a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms are set apart for added privacy and share a well-appointed bathroom, offering plenty of comfort and convenience. Some might actually find joy as they step from the 2 car garage into the next space- I think it's calling out for someone to create their perfect Pinterest drop zone (the Florida version of a mud room for those of you in the north), ideal for stowing away all your essentials. After storing your gear and freshening up at the utility sink, step out to the covered lanai to relax and recharge in your own private sanctuary. The covered patio is ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing while enjoying the beautiful Florida weather, and the oversized backyard is a canvas waiting for you to design the rest of your Florida dream, whether that includes a pool, garden, or outdoor lounge! Recent updates include a brand new AC unit installed in 2023 and a thorough roof inspection. This home has been meticulously cared for and sustained only minor, fully-repaired impacts from Hurricane Ian, plus it’s in an X flood zone, meaning no additional flood insurance is required! Added bonus: this property has proven income potential! Whether you're seeking a primary residence or a fantastic investment opportunity, this delightful Englewood home is ready to become a cherished part of your Florida lifestyle.
