Property Description
Completely renovated, ground-floor condo with expansive lake views on the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes! Welcome to Winterset, where this beautifully reimagined 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence combines a spacious interior, private screened porch, exceptional water views, and the amenities of one of Winter Haven's most desirable gated communities. From top to bottom the home feels fresh, bright, and remarkably spacious. New flooring flows throughout, complemented by updated lighting, contemporary ceiling fans, modern fixtures, and a crisp neutral palette. The open living and dining areas provide plenty of room to relax and entertain, while large windows frame the expansive lawn and sparkling waters of Lake Winterset beyond. The redesigned kitchen has been expanded for greater functionality and features granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry with crown molding, black appliances, a gas range, dishwasher, generous breakfast bar, and abundant cabinet and counter space. Open to the dining and living areas, it creates an easy flow throughout the main living space. The oversized primary suite is one of the home's standout features, offering beautiful lake views and direct access to the private screened porch-a peaceful spot for morning coffee, an afternoon book, or simply enjoying the breeze and ever-changing colors of sunsets over the water. An exceptionally large walk-in closet provides impressive storage, while the completely renovated en-suite bath features a double vanity with undermount sinks and granite countertop, updated fixtures, and a frameless glass walk-in shower surrounded by custom tile. Positioned separately from the primary suite, the spacious second bedroom offers two closets and convenient access to the beautifully renovated guest bath, complete with granite-topped vanity and custom-tiled tub and shower. The thoughtful layout also includes an interior laundry area and additional storage. Beyond the residence, Winterset delivers the Florida lifestyle buyers come here to enjoy. Residents have access to a heated lakefront swimming pool and spa, clubhouse, tennis and pickleball courts, shuffleboard, and a private boat ramp with direct access to the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes-opening the door to boating, fishing, water skiing, sunset cruises, and waterfront dining. Shopping, restaurants, medical facilities, LEGOLAND Florida Resort, and downtown Winter Haven are all just minutes away, while convenient routes toward Tampa and Orlando make the location equally appealing for everyday living and weekend adventures. Beautifully renovated, ground-floor living, an unusually spacious primary suite, private screened porch, resort-style amenities, Chain of Lakes access, and a gorgeous water view right outside your windows-this is the kind of Winter Haven condo that's easy to fall in love with.
