Description

What a wonderful opportunity! This must-see home has a gorgeous updated kitchen and back patio. Lovingly maintained for almost 2 decades by the ORIGINAL owner, this house has been well cared for. There is a new HVAC (2019), H20 heater in last 2 years, new double pane windows in 2016 as well as NEW plumbing (2021) throughout the unit AND a completely remodeled kitchen with granite, stainless steel appliances, new top of the line cabinets and a large pantry. Enjoy the look of beautiful wood floors without the maintenance with updated wood-like tile flooring throughout the entire downstairs. A half bath downstairs is perfect for entertaining and a large closet under the stairs provides great storage. The back patio is a dream with alternating teak and pebble flooring and a fountain that brings calm and tranquility. Upstairs are two bedrooms, each with their own private bathrooms. A separate laundry closet houses a washer and dryer upstairs as well- no more lugging baskets up and down. Skylights and vaulted ceilings make the space feel grand and let in lots of natural light. Your unit comes with two designated parking spots that have been beautifully framed by grass, plants and greenery. All within the convenient location of Haile Plantation Villas- just a couple of blocks from Haile Village and neighborhood trails. A 5-minute drive to Publix, shopping, restaurants and less than 20 minutes to Shands, UF and North Florida.
