Step into relaxed, affordable Florida living in this fully renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bath home in the highly desirable pet section of Holiday Park - a gated 55+ community where you own the land. No lot rent, no uncertainty - just true ownership, long-term value, and Florida living with peace of mind.
The bright, open layout flows easily and feels larger than expected, with durable laminate and tile flooring throughout and a low-maintenance design perfect for year-round living or a seasonal retreat. Taken down to the studs during a permitted full renovation in 2011, the home offers both major system and structural improvements.
The remodeled kitchen is functional and inviting, featuring abundant white cabinetry, generous counter space, decorative glass tile backsplash, updated fixtures, filtered water faucet, corner lazy susan, range, microwave, dishwasher, disposal, and pantry. Whether you're preparing a quiet breakfast or hosting friends, the kitchen connects seamlessly to the dining and living areas for everyday living and easy entertaining.
The spacious bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with a generous closet, while the updated bathroom, pocket doors, and smart storage make the most of every square foot. The flexible living area offers the option to convert into a second sleeping space when guests arrive. A surprise standout is the indoor laundry room, complete with built-in storage, a fold-down ironing board, and a drop-down folding table - a rare convenience that makes daily life easier.
This home has been carefully upgraded and maintained for comfort, efficiency, and long-term peace of mind. Major improvements include a 2023 HVAC system with humidity control, updated electrical panel, wiring, outlets, and plumbing, foam insulation throughout, electric water heater, double-pane tilt-in windows, pull-down Bahama shutters, French door, ceiling fans, rain gutters, exterior lighting, and reclaimed water irrigation. Roof was re-laminated in 2024. Interior-controlled holiday and seasonal lighting and neatly housed interior utilities reflect the thoughtful design behind the home.
Outside, enjoy your own slice of Florida paradise on a deeded lot with open park and greenbelt views. A covered carport, attached insulated and air-conditioned storage/workshop, private patio, and shared RV and Boat parking give you space to relax, create, and store with ease. Mature landscaping featuring blooming Bird of Paradise and Hibiscus adds color and charm, while the open surroundings create a breezy, peaceful atmosphere.
