About This Home
As of February 2024"Don't miss out on the opportunity of a lifetime ! Experience the Florida lifestyle you've always envisioned within the highly sought-after 55+ gated community of Park Forest. This FURNISHED detached home features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a spacious 2-car garage, complemented by the addition of a generous sunroom that extends your living space by 280 square feet. The pricing reflects the current state of the home, offering an affordable entry point into a gated community.. While some TLC is needed, with updates, you can customize the property to match your lifestyle and preferences, creating a space that truly embodies your concept of home. Upon entering the welcoming foyer, the vaulted ceilings immediately provide a sense of openness, seamlessly connecting the living and dining areas. The kitchen affords a view of the entire living space, leading to the serene haven of the sunroom, adorned with an abundance of windows that invite you to relax after a day at the beach or a round of golf. To the left of the foyer, you'll discover a versatile formal dining room, offering the flexibility to transform it into a cozy den, especially with the charming breakfast nook that can easily accommodate your dining table.
Proceed through the living room to unveil the spacious primary bedroom en suite, which features a walk-in shower, a garden tub, a convenient makeup vanity, and a sizable walk-in closet. The secondary bedroom, situated off the living room, boasts a generous front window that fills the room with ample natural light. Notable features of this property include a new roof installed in 2023 and a 2016 air conditioning system. In Park Forest's phase 3, quarterly fees cover essential services such as lawn care, irrigation, roof replacement, and exterior painting, all without the burden of CDD fees (please refer to HOA documents for comprehensive details). This vibrant and engaging community boasts a clubhouse/recreation center that hosts a variety of planned events and interest groups to cater to your preferences. You can also enjoy the heated community pool and spa , along with pickleball, tennis, and shuffleboard courts, all with a picturesque backdrop of a tranquil lake.

The community's awesome location places Manasota Key Beaches within a 5-mile radius and Englewood's charming Dearborn Street less than 1 mile away. You'll have easy access to numerous stores, medical facilities, and cultural events in Englewood, as well as in nearby Venice and Wellen Park.
