About This Home

As of July 2020

What more can you ask for? Ten minutes from the famous Clearwater Beach, fifteen to the Clearwater/St. Petersburg airport, five minutes to Eagle Lake Park, and don’t forget the Largo Library just minutes away. Needless to say you will not want to miss out on this darling home with three bedrooms, one and a half bath plus a one car garage. Additionally the back yard is amazing and just waiting for your large pool. This truly is your very own Florida Paradise in your own back yard. Moving in side to your new home with beautiful wood floors in all the bedrooms, ceramic tile throughout the living room bath and kitchen areas. Dual glazed windows throughout plus plantation shudders. Large bonus room perfect for working from home, TV room, or kids play room. If you need another bedroom this room could easily be converted, as it has plenty of room. Completely remodeled kitchen with solid wood cabinets and stone counter tops . All appliances are stainless steel which accent the white solid stone counter tops and white solid wood cabinets. (2015) Very attractive remodeled bathroom, with top mounted clear glass sink. Newer large completely screened Lanai (2016) with a unique hot tub for those relaxing times plus plenty of room for eating outside, and kids to play. Lotus Path is a dead end street so very quiet and safe. Please do not miss out on this beauty. Seller is moving south with family, so she is ready when you are. Thank you for your interest. Crystal lights in the bathroom, hall, and kitchen do not convey.
