Nestled in the highly sought-after Palma Ceia Park neighborhood, this meticulously cared-for corner-lot home offers a harmonious blend of timeless charm and modern updates. Recent exterior enhancements include wood siding repairs (August 2023), a fresh exterior paint job (September 2023), and a fully redone chimney chase with framed Hardie Board and a decorative cap, backed by a ten-year guarantee. The beautifully landscaped yard boasts mature trees, vibrant flowering plants, and a fruitful lemon tree, complemented by new lighting, fresh plants, gutter guards, and lush sod and mulch. Inside, the well-thought-out floorplan features a welcoming front living room, a separate dining room, an updated kitchen with matching GE appliances, abundant natural light, a family room with vaulted ceilings and large storage closet, and a wood-burning fireplace recently cleaned with a new flue cap (2023). The spacious primary suite impresses with three closets (hers, his, and a dedicated shoe closet) and a renovated walk-in shower bathroom with extra storage cabinets, a mirror, and countertop space. Currently utilized as an office, the third bedroom offers versatility. Numerous tasteful updates include Lutron smart dimmers throughout the home, remote-controlled shades, brand-new ceiling fans, a recently installed dining room chandelier, a new Rheem water heater (August 2023), a smart Trane thermostat, marble backsplash in the kitchen, a new GE microwave, a new kitchen faucet, updated electrical outlets (including kitchen GFCI), LED lighting installations, and Container Store Elfa Decor modular closet organizers. Other thoughtful additions consist of motion-activated lights in closets, new vents in bathrooms, a new vanity in the second bath, a Ring doorbell/camera/floodlight system, and fresh paint throughout. The home retains its original charm with wood parquet floors and plantation shutters in the front. An updated and oversized one-car garage, primed for conversion into a mother-in-law suite, comes complete with insulation, drywall, a cooling wall unit, LED ceiling lights, a pull-down ladder, and network cable routing from the third bedroom to the garage. Additionally, there’s space to park and secure another car behind the fenced gate. To top it off, a private backyard patio beckons, perfectly sized for a firepit and four chairs, creating a tranquil garden oasis. This home is on a meticulous schedule for lawn/shrub treatment, pest treatment, and AC maintenance (prepaid service due in October 2023).
