This homesite in University Park Country Club was chosen by the original and current homeowner specifically for the serene and natural pond setting. VIRGINIA WATER is just one of the many enclaves inside the Park and well-known for the friendly residents and central QUIET location within the Park. The home DOES NOT HAVE A POOL, but well situated on the lot if that’s the desire. A resident community pool is convenient and eliminates the fuss. The front door recently replaced is guaranteed to welcome you with pleasure. High ceilings, open floor plan and an immediate WOW factor to the private view of a nature sanctuary over the pond. An expanse of sliding glass doors opens to the oversized covered screened lanai. The kitchen has updated warm wood cabinetry, stainless appliances, including a gas range, and a cozy breakfast nook with a custom window seat. The primary suite with RECENTLY REPLACED WINDOWS, slider to the lanai and a generous walk-in closet. Ensuite bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in shower, separate water closet and linen closet. At the front of the home, a cozy den or 3rd bedroom and guest bedroom.
