About This Home

What? Furniture and a golf cart? Just bring your toothbrush! Your maintenance-free lifestyle awaits! Welcome to Traditions at Lake Ruby, an active 55+ community! Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed by a charming front entryway and a glass storm door, leading into a spacious living room with high ceilings. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, plus a den/office, sits on a large corner lot near the beautiful clubhouse and butterfly park.

Built in 2006, this wonderfully spacious home offers over 1,700 sq. ft. of living space and has been meticulously maintained. Recent upgrades include new appliances, new AO Smith 50 gallon water heater (2025)
, a new A/C (2020), a new roof (2022), fresh interior and exterior paint (2023), and a whole-house water softener. The large kitchen features a sunny breakfast nook for eat-in dining, overlooks the formal dining area, and has easy access to the screened-in lanai—perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon nap. Mature hedges provide additional privacy. The den offers flexible space for a home office or a third bedroom for guests. The hall bathroom features a Safe Step walk-in tub, providing safety, comfort, and convenience for a relaxing bathing experience.

The bright and open primary bedroom features sliding doors that lead to the enclosed lanai, as well as a spacious walk-in closet with extra shelving for storage. Additional features of this home include a collapsible flagpole, an irrigation system, driveway pavers, and gutters. The 2-car garage boasts attic stairs, an insulated garage door, and a pull-down screen.

Best of all, this home is being offered turn-key and fully furnished. It even includes a brand-new golf cart—perfect for riding around the neighborhood and meeting new friends. For the enthusiast, it also comes with three RC radio-controlled boats, complete with batteries and accessories, perfect for enjoying time on the lake. Additionally, a selection of tools will convey with the home, providing everything you need for maintenance and projects.

The monthly HOA fee of $489 covers lawn service (including bush and tree trimming and mulch replacement), exterior painting (in the owner’s choice of color), and cable and Internet—offering significant savings compared to covering these costs out of pocket.

Traditions at Lake Ruby is a gated, maintenance-free 55+ community with a wealth of amenities, including a clubhouse, planned community activities, a boat ramp and dock, a heated outdoor swimming pool and spa, a ballroom, billiards, a meeting room, a library, a computer room, a craft room, a dog park, tennis courts, bocce ball, shuffleboard, a fitness center, and an aerobics studio.
