About This Home

As of April 2025

One level living just 6 miles from the bay (and 9 from the ocean) - ON the private walking/jogging trail in an idyllic, BEAUTIFULLY TREED, community which resembles a movie set! This unique DETACHED CONDO HOME with picket fencing is almost maintenance-free (the HOA fees even include the exterior insurance, among other things) and just what you've been looking for! 1667 square feet - with a wrap-around front porch AND a screened in back porch! The home has been lovingly cared for - with many items updated over the past 4 years: new roof, new HVAC, new tankless water heater, new pellet stove fireplace, new stainless steel appliances, new front-loading high-end washer and dryer, too! The gleaming hardwood floor extends through the combination living/dining area - and is accented by the warmth and ambience of the pellet stove. Open to the kitchen, it's perfect for your own living needs and/or for entertaining! There are 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths here - each with wall to wall carpet, ceiling fans AND window blinds/curtains. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with jetted tub and stall shower. As stated before, the home backs up to the walking/jogging trail - with a buffer of mature pine trees and the community's white fence behind both. There are MANY amenities here including 5 ponds, restaurants and services in the plaza at the entrance (independent of the community), a clubhouse, pool, baby pool, playground, multiple sports courts, pickleball, tennis and an incredible number of social activities! You've wanted the minimal maintenance of a condo, but also prefer a detached house - well you've just found it! Welcome to your new home near the beach at 16359 John Rowland Trail.
