About This Home
Welcome to 5501 Afton Drive, located in the highly sought-after Woodford section of Inverness. This spacious 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home is nestled on a large, wooded cul-de-sac lot. From the moment you walk through the front door, you'll want to call it home. The cozy yet open floor plan features 9-foot ceilings throughout the main level. The updated kitchen offers plenty of space, and the main level includes two bedrooms—one being the primary suite with a fully renovated bathroom, and the second with its own private bath. A convenient one-car main-level garage is just off the kitchen (additional 2 car garage in basement). Upstairs showcases newly installed carpet and generous space. Enjoy the screened-in back porch overlooking your private wooded lot. The finished basement includes a large den, kitchenette, and a full bath. Freshly painted inside and out with a new roof (2024) and new carpet (July 2025). Also, most windows have been replaced!
