Nestled within an enclave of only 31 homes is this darling 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom land-owned condo where modern elegance meets comfortable living. As you approach the home, picture yourself enjoying the fresh air and a cup of coffee each morning on the screened-in front porch. Then, step inside to discover an inviting, open living space enhanced by vaulted ceilings and three light tubes that fill the area with natural light. The kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, an island, and a double pantry for ample storage. The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for you and your guests. The primary bedroom has two spacious closets and an ensuite bath with dual sinks, a step-in shower, and a linen closet. A pocket door separates the living room and guest area creating a secondary ensuite where the bedroom is large enough for a queen-sized bed, the bath offers a tub/shower combination, and another linen closet is thoughtfully located in the hall. Finishing out the interior is a bonus space off the living room that offers versatility as an office or a cozy reading area. Plantation shutters grace the hurricane-rated windows throughout. The enclosed lanai has plexiglass windows and is cooled by a mini-split AC unit providing comfort year-round. This 55+ community has a low monthly association fee of $150 which covers pest control and grounds maintenance. An optional amenities membership is available at neighboring River Isles for only $180/quarter. Updates include: Roof - 2016, AC units (19 SEER & 14 SEER) - 2018, Hurricane-Rated Windows - 2020, AC Ductwork - 2021, Gutter Guards - 2022, and Backflow - 2023.
