About This Property
Virtually Staged. Experience the best of Florida living in this beautifully renovated and rarely available 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 2-car garage home with nearly 1,900 heated square feet, a large interior laundry room, and an oversized nearly quarter-acre lot perfectly situated on a quiet cul-de-sac just steps from the main clubhouse in Palm Harbor’s premier 55+ golf community, Highland Lakes! Everything is NEW, NEW, NEW! From the moment you step inside, you’ll be greeted by stunning new flooring flowing seamlessly throughout the home, fresh paint and baseboards, all-new fans, fixtures and hardware, new recessed lighting, zero popcorn ceilings, a skylight in the main living area, large updated windows, and beautiful views throughout the newly opened floor plan. The remodeled and opened kitchen is a true showstopper, featuring floor-to-ceiling solid wood cabinetry, gorgeous quartz countertops, a cozy breakfast nook for casual dining, and all-new sleek stainless-steel appliances. The oversized primary suite offers plenty of room for a king-size bedroom set plus additional space perfect for a home office or cozy sitting area, along with a massive walk-in closet and fully renovated en-suite bath featuring a new stone-top vanity, mirror, lighting, and glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Two additional spacious bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for guests and endless flexibility for an office, craft room, or additional living space. The large Florida room provides even more space for relaxing or entertaining and opens to an additional fully enclosed bonus lanai that is not included in the home’s heated/cooled square footage. Major improvements include a new A/C system (2026), updated electrical panel (2023), new roof (2022), and new water heater (2025). The home is also ideally situated high and dry in a NON-FLOOD ZONE and NON-EVACUATION ZONE!
