Welcome to this beautifully updated home in Highland Lakes, Palm Harbor’s premier 55+ community, ideally situated on a large corner lot. Featuring a desirable split-bedroom floor plan, this home has been extensively updated over the past year, making it truly move-in ready. Major improvements include a new roof (2025), new HVAC system (2025) with a 5-year maintenance plan, new water heater and whole-house water filtration system (2025), new gutters, and replacement windows, some of which are hurricane rated. The interior has been refreshed from top to bottom with popcorn ceilings removed and retextured, new ceiling vents, updated electrical switches and outlets, new door hardware, and fresh interior paint throughout. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2026 with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, backsplash, sink, garbage disposal, recessed lighting, and microwave. A newer refrigerator and range complete the space. Both bathrooms have also been updated, including a completely renovated guest bath with new tile, shower, shower door, vanity, lighting, fixtures, and flooring. The primary bath features a new shower, shower door, and toilet. Additional updates continue throughout the home. The laundry room features a newer washer and dryer, flooring, utility sink, backsplash, and lighting. The garage offers an insulated new garage door, upgraded garage floor, overhead and additional storage shelving, attic steps, updated entry and service doors, and ceiling improvements. The enclosed lanai provides additional comfortable living space and has been extensively improved with a raised floor, new insulated drywall ceiling, mini-split HVAC system, window treatments, lighting, ceiling fan, and new exterior door. Outside, you'll find updated landscaping, a paver patio, irrigation for the landscaping, exterior landscape lighting in the front, and a freshly painted front porch, creating an inviting and well-maintained outdoor setting. Highland Lakes offers an impressive selection of amenities designed for an active and social lifestyle.
