Overview
Description
Discover the perfect blend of comfort, style, and community in this beautifully renovated home, nestled in Palm Harbor’s premier 55+ golf community. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice the thoughtful upgrades: fresh paint, new interior doors, elegant crown molding, and brand-new bathrooms. Luxury vinyl floors flow throughout, while abundant natural light and a rare wood-burning fireplace add warmth and charm.
The updated kitchen is a true highlight, featuring granite countertops, self-closing cabinets, and new stainless steel appliances. It opens seamlessly to a cozy sitting area and the oversized Florida Room—perfect for hosting friends or simply enjoying a quiet morning coffee. Your spacious master suite is a private retreat with a den/office, walk-in closet, and spa-style bath with a step-in shower.
Say goodbye to popcorn ceilings—this home has been fully modernized with today’s finishes. Major systems have been taken care of so you can move in with confidence: a newer electrical panel, on-demand water heater (2025), HVAC (2020), and a whole-house water filtration system. The roof is protected with Roof Max coating, extending its life and providing peace of mind.
Add in a cost-saving deep-water well, and this home is truly turn-key. Highland Lakes is known as Tampa Bay’s best value in 55+ living. Residents enjoy free green fees on three private executive golf courses, plus pickleball, tennis, bocce, shuffleboard, 3 pools and beginner clinics to try something new.
The clubhouse buzzes with fitness classes, entertainment, and social events, while the Arts & Crafts Annex features woodworking and creative studios. At Lake Tarpon Lodge, you’ll find a heated pool, fishing pier, picnic areas, and community pontoon boats. Free RV and boat storage, a secure lot, and a private boat ramp make life here even more convenient.
This isn’t just a house—it’s a gateway to the lifestyle you’ve earned. Schedule your private showing today and experience why Highland Lakes is the premier 55+ golf community in Tampa Bay!
