Description

No HOA or CDD Fees! Oversized lots. Incredible, well-rounded, multi-generational neighborhood. No Rear Neighbors – this incredible property has room for a pool, mother-in-law suite, RV parking, you name it. The oversized screened-in back patio with ceiling fans and TVs overlooks incredible mature Pine and Oak trees, set the perfect distance away to enjoy but not so close you'd worry about them falling on the house. It's a perfect place to hang out after a long day. All major improvements are done, including a newer roof (2021), AC unit (2019), and water heater (2018), along with hurricane-rated impact windows and patio doors for added peace of mind. Located in the Woodlawn community, this property sits in the far corner, giving you an extra level of peace and quiet. This Florida home was built extremely well, with the foundation and exterior in block. The newly painted 2-car garage and carport give you plenty of space for up to 4 cars, with additional street parking. The home has a modern Southern touch and a very popular split floor plan—a stunning 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout. The kitchen has soft-close hardwood cabinets and an oversized island with 24-inch cabinets, giving you ample room for every kitchen item you can imagine. The floors were updated to vinyl, and the primary bedroom has its own en suite and walk-in closet, with a brand-new shower just installed in the primary bathroom. Don't worry about the expensive, challenging items—the owners have already done the heavy lifting for you. This home comes equipped with hurricane-rated impact windows and doors throughout. The two hurricane-impact French doors open up the house and create a flow that entertains and delights. The elegance of vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, providing a clean, modern aesthetic with no carpet. This property also includes a handy shed with updated electrical hookups. Nestled in the charming Woodlawn Lakes neighborhood, you'll appreciate the tree-lined streets and mature greenery. Best of all, you're just a couple of miles from shopping and dining, with easy access to vibrant Tampa, St. Pete, Sarasota, and some of Florida's most beautiful beaches—all within a quick 45-minute drive! Don't miss the chance to make this remarkable home yours. Schedule your viewing today and experience the lifestyle you've been dreaming of!

    "I do not have any pets to give an opinion. The area is nice. I do see people walking their dogs daily "
  • Cgreene911
    "Quiet, Pet friendly. Neighbors are friendly and watch out for each other. There were 2 antagonists but fortunately they sold. The current Board is working hard to meet the requirements for a well maintained community that we can enjoy. Please ignore the previous negative comment. HOA fees are now $244 for the purpose of replenishing reserves that were depleted."
  • Janie Z.
    "This is not a friendly community. Very clickish. There are bullies here and those who spy for the owner then report you. Those who call you a friend one day then stab you in the back the next day to join the newest ‘in crowd’. Do yourself a favor, buy elsewhere. "
  • Trulia User
    "An old fashioned neighborhood where kids can have a little freedom. Very neighborly, quiet. City park with new play structure and community events"
