Live the Florida dream in this beautifully updated and move-in ready 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with a versatile enclosed lanai, ideally located on a large, beautifully landscaped corner lot in Palm Harbor’s premier 55+ golf community—Highland Lakes. Surrounded by mature trees and tropical greenery, this home offers a mostly private backyard oasis perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. Step inside to discover rich cherry wood floors, fresh interior paint, two-toned freshly painted kitchen cabinets with granite countertops, and a gorgeous shiplap wall feature in the living room that adds warmth and character to the space. An abundance of natural light flows through recently installed hurricane-rated windows WITH custom plantation shutters, while the exterior was professionally painted in 2023, giving the home excellent curb appeal. The centrally located kitchen is perfectly positioned between the family and dining rooms and features a convenient pass-through window to the lanai, making everyday living and entertaining effortless. The oversized primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with dual closets and an en-suite bath with a walk-in shower. The indoor laundry room, conveniently located between the garage and main living area, has been thoughtfully transformed into a craft room but can easily accommodate a washer and dryer again, offering flexible space to suit your needs. Major system upgrades provide peace of mind, including an updated electrical panel (2017), HVAC system (2018), and hurricane-rated windows installed in 2024. Highland Lakes offers resort-style living with free green fees on three private executive golf courses, active clubs, water aerobics, yoga, pickleball, tennis, and more. The main clubhouse is the heart of the community and truly must be seen in person to appreciate its size and exceptional amenities. The arts and crafts campus includes studios, classes, and a woodshop, while the Lake Tarpon Lodge provides a peaceful escape with a second heated pool, fishing pier, party pavilion, community pontoon boats, and free RV or boat storage.
