About This Home

As of February 2026

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to this stunning Bonita-II home located in the highly desirable Traditions at Lake Ruby, a gated and maintenance-free 55+ community! From the moment you arrive, you’ll be greeted by a charming front entryway that leads into a spacious living room with soaring ceilings with crown molding. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a premium lot with no rear neighbors, offering added privacy. Built in 2016, the home boasts over 1,800 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space.
The kitchen is a true highlight, featuring recessed lighting, 42" upper cabinets with pull-out drawers, beautiful stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a cozy sit-in dining area. Elegant tile flooring extends throughout the kitchen, dining room, hall bedroom, living room, bathrooms, foyer, and laundry room, while carpeting adds comfort to the front and master bedrooms.
The oversized master suite includes sliding glass doors leading to the enclosed lanai, two walk-in closets, and a luxurious bathroom with dual vanities, granite countertops, a garden tub, and a tiled walk-in shower. The expansive 31' x 9' screened veranda is accessed through sliding glass doors in the living room, flooding the living room with natural light—perfect for an afternoon nap or enjoying your favorite book with a cup of coffee.
Additional features include a 2020 roof, stone-accented exterior, paver driveway, irrigation system, gutters, and a 2-car garage with an overhead storage rack. The monthly HOA fee of $486 covers lawn care (including bush and tree trimming and mulch replacement), exterior painting (due to be painted in 2026 with owner’s choice of color), cable, and internet—offering exceptional value and convenience.
Traditions at Lake Ruby offers an array of resort-style amenities, including a clubhouse, planned social activities, boat ramp and dock, heated outdoor pool and spa, ballroom, billiards room, meeting room, library, computer room, craft room, dog park, tennis and bocce ball courts, shuffleboard, a fitness center, and an aerobics studio. All of this is conveniently located near shopping, dining, medical facilities, hospitals, and Legoland!
