About This Home

As of May 2020

Sitting on a premium lot in the 55+ gated community, The Groves, this three bedroom/two bathroom home overlooking conservation awaits you. Open the iron gate and follow the walkway to the front door. Go ahead come on in and step onto the ceramic tile and look up at the tray ceiling with recess lighting. Look around and feel the warmth and see the charm in this home. Take a glance over the breakfast bar and take in the kitchen which houses the refrigerator, built-in oven, microwave, and a black cooktop on its own island. The island has drawers and cabinets along with pull out drawers for spices. Cabinets are set off with crown molding adding a touch of class. The white and black combination works well together to bring this kitchen alive with a nice airy and clean feel. The open floor plan allows for an easy flow from the kitchen, to the dining room to the living room and out onto the spacious screen-in tiled lanai. Perhaps, you may want to add an outdoor kitchen and bar to this huge lanai. Enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner on this oversized, screen-in lanai while taking in the conservation view. If you enjoy entertaining, the spacious open plan of this home might just be perfect for you. From the kitchen to the dining room to the living room and out to the lanai. The open floor plan makes it easier for everyone to stay involved in the fun. Home alone? Open the sliding glass doors and let the outside in, take a deep breath or two and enjoy. This home is made to enjoy with friends, family or by yourself. The master bedroom is adorned with a beige carpet and a set of three windows overlooking the conservation. Open the windows and you just might hear the sounds of nature. Nice. The master bath is tiled and has dual sinks, a walk-in shower, a spacious walk-in closet and a set of small windows to add extra lighting. The second and third bedrooms have carpet. The garage has a 08 x 10 space for a golf cart or can be used for storage. This is in addition to the size of the garage shown on this listing. NEW ROOF! The lawn maintenance, exterior painting, roof, and basic tv are covered under your HOA. The Groves is a golf course community with a year-round heated pool and a jacuzzi, restaurant/bar, pet park, clubhouse, library, exercise room, arts and crafts and, if you enjoy playing cards, there is a card room. Did I mention golf! There's boccie, tennis, pickleball and so much more. Make this home yours today!
