About This Home
Welcome to your own private backyard oasis in the heart of Niceville. This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a great combination of comfort, thoughtful updates, and outdoor living--just in time for summer.
Inside, you'll find a move-in-ready interior with a fresh, neutral palette, with a splash of color in the kitchen and a layout designed for easy everyday living. The main living areas feature solid oak flooring with tile in all wet spaces, and there's no carpet or popcorn ceilings to worry about. The family room is a standout with tongue-and-groove cathedral ceilings and a cozy gas log fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space to relax or gather. The kitchen and baths have been updated over time and offer durable, quality finishes including oak cabinetry, Corian countertops, updated fixtures, and a full appliance package. Double-pane windows bring in great natural light, complemented by plantation shutters and down blinds on back door and bay window. The interior was freshly painted in 2021, adding to the home's clean, well-kept feel. Major system updates provide added peace of mind, including a 2020 roof and 2026 water heater. The HVAC system has been consistently professionally serviced, and the ductwork was sanitized in 2025. Additional improvements include a new pool pump motor in 2024 and garage door motor, springs, and chain replaced in 2025. Step outside and you'll see what truly sets this home apart--a spacious backyard featuring a beautiful in-ground pool that has been professionally maintained, perfect for cooling off on warm Florida days or entertaining friends and family. There's even an outdoor shower for added convenience after a swim or a day at the beach. Need space for your toys? There's plenty of room to park a boat or RV with ease--no HOA restrictions to worry about. Located in a central Niceville location, this home offers easy access to top-rated schools, parks, Eglin Air Force Base, shopping, and dining. If you've been searching for an affordable pool home with character, updates, and flexibility, this one checks all the boxes.
