Property Description
Welcome to this charming, SPACIOUS, 2-bedroom, 2 full bath home with a 1-car garage in the highly desirable 55+ community of Anchorage of Lake Tarpon - a LIGHT, BRIGHT, and beautifully designed residence that would make the perfect Florida winter retreat or an ideal place to retire and enjoy the sunshine year-round. This thoughtfully designed home features an extra-large formal living and dining area, offering wonderful space for entertaining or relaxing in comfort. The SPLIT-BEDROOM floor plan ensures privacy, with a spacious primary suite on one side featuring a BRAND NEW SHOWER, while the second bedroom and full bath are located on the opposite side - perfect for guests. Just off the kitchen, you'll find a versatile bonus room ideal for a home office, craft room, hobby space, or cozy reading nook. The backyard was fully fenced in 2019 with white vinyl fencing, creating a private outdoor space to enjoy Florida's beautiful weather. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a NEW ROOF and gutters (2019), water heater (2020), and HVAC (2016). The sprinkler system runs on a well for efficient irrigation. Located in a NO FLOOD ZONE - and this home had no flooding - offering added security and confidence. Anchorage residents enjoy fantastic amenities including a clubhouse, large pool, game area, library, and a full calendar of social events - all with a low HOA fee of just $500 per year.
