About This Home

As of December 2025

If you’ve been dreaming of a home that blends relaxed Florida living with low-maintenance ease, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home in Tara Preserve is it. Perfectly positioned on the 10th fairway, it offers sweeping golf course views and gorgeous sunsets from your private screened lanai and pool. Best of all, there’s no mandatory golf membership—play when you want, and enjoy the view year-round.
Inside, the open-concept layout feels bright and welcoming with two bay windows, with cathedral ceilings and abundant natural light. NEW A/C INSTALLED 10/17/25 with a 10 year transferrable warranty to new owner. The kitchen features newer stainless appliances, a versatile center island, and a modern design that opens seamlessly to the living and dining areas—ideal for entertaining or everyday comfort. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, and the primary suite includes stylish laminate flooring, a walk-in closet, and access to the pool area. Outside, the screened pool and lanai create your own private retreat—perfect for morning coffee, lazy afternoons, or sunset cocktails overlooking the fairway. Hurricane shutters, protective window film, and community-maintained landscaping make this home truly lock-and-leave ready. Living in Tara Preserve means enjoying resort-style amenities—including pickleball, tennis, and a community pool—plus a neighborhood known for its friendly atmosphere and active lifestyle. It’s a beautifully cared-for home that captures everything you love about the Florida lifestyle: sun, simplicity, and a view that never gets old.
