This charming concrete block home is tucked away on a quiet, private street, offering a peaceful retreat with three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms—ideal for comfortable everyday living. With 1,456 square feet of well-maintained and thoughtfully updated living space, the home blends modern convenience with timeless appeal. For added peace of mind, the home includes a WHOLE-HOME 22KW Generac standby generator installed in 2021! This system automatically activates during power outages and shuts off when electricity is restored, ensuring uninterrupted comfort. Step outside to enjoy stunning views of Lake Tsala Apopka from your own gazebo, nestled beneath a majestic century-old oak tree. The 0.3-acre lot provides generous outdoor space, including a one-car garage and a one-car carport for easy parking and storage, and is NOT in a flood zone. The backyard is fenced in for your furry friends and the property is connected to Floral City Water but also features a private well for irrigation. Numerous updates have been made over the years to enhance comfort and efficiency, including double-pane windows (tilt for easy cleaning), new doors, a custom gazebo, and a 3-ton 16 SEER Carrier air conditioner installed in 2016. The septic drain field was replaced in 2017, followed by a new roof and flooring in 2018. In 2021, the kitchen was upgraded with new cabinets and stainless steel appliances, and a water softener was added in 2022. Nature lovers will appreciate the property's vibrant ecosystem, which attracts deer, owls, and a variety of migrating birds. Located just steps from the Withlacoochee State Trail—one of Florida's longest paved rail-trails—the home offers easy access to biking, walking, running, and skating on flat, scenic terrain. Despite its proximity to the trail, the home maintains a high level of privacy and tranquility.
The lush gardens are complemented by mature fruit trees, including lemon, orange, and tangerine, adding both beauty and bounty to the landscape. With easy access to I-75 and the Suncoast Parkway, the property offers easy commuting options. Families will appreciate its proximity to Floral City Elementary, Inverness Middle School, and Citrus High School. Shopping, dining, and the charming Inverness Historic District are just a short drive away, providing a welcoming hometown atmosphere.
