This beautifully updated and stunning home with nearly 1,900 square feet offers true location perfection—a peaceful, private retreat tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac and surrounded by lush greenery, with no homes visible in the front or back. Large newer windows and skylights flood the home with natural light throughout the day. Quality upgrades shine in the spacious open-concept design that seamlessly blends the living room, family room, Florida room, dining area, and kitchen, creating an ideal setting for entertaining. The chef’s kitchen features a huge island open to the main living space, striking granite countertops, solid wood cabinetry, sleek stainless appliances, recessed lighting, and absolutely no popcorn ceilings, complemented by elegant chair rail detailing throughout. Two bedrooms are thoughtfully separated by a large dressing room, a bathroom, and two closets, while the versatile Florida room can serve as a THIRD BEDROOM, office, or game room and opens to a large private screened porch, also accessible from the primary bedroom. Additional highlights include a convenient inside laundry room with utility tub, a spacious two-car garage with workbench and pull-down stairs to a full attic, a cost-saving deep well, and an expanded patio perfect for grilling. Situated at one of the highest elevations in Pinellas County, this home is not in a flood zone offering peace of mind. No insurance worries here with a NEW electrical panel in 2024, 3.5 TON HVAC in 2016 and with a recently passed four-point inspection available and transferable to the buyer!
