This warm and welcoming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is located in a peaceful and well-kept 55+ community that offers the comfort, calm, and simplicity that so many are looking for. Whether you’re ready to retire, downsize, or simply want to enjoy a quieter lifestyle, this home has what you need. As you pull up the tidy landscaping and clean exterior set the tone for what you’ll find inside. The two-car garage offers plenty of space for vehicles, tools, or extra storage. Step inside, and you’ll immediately notice one of the home’s standout features—crown molding throughout. The living room is large and is the heart of the home. It gives you a comfortable place to relax, visit with family, or kick back with a good book. There’s plenty of room for your favorite furniture, and thanks to the open layout, you’ll enjoy a natural flow between the main living spaces. To the side, there’s a separate dining room—a feature that’s getting harder to find in newer homes. It’s just right for hosting events. Across from the dining area, on the other side of the kitchen, is a breakfast nook, a sunny little spot that looks out over the backyard. It’s perfect for your morning coffee or a quiet lunch, and it’s a space you’ll find yourself drawn to day after day. The kitchen is practical, and easy to move around in. You’ll find plenty of cabinets for storage, good counter space, and an easy layout that makes cooking a breeze. It connects easily with the rest of the house, so you can stay part of the conversation while cooking or cleaning up. All three bedrooms in the home are a good size, with the primary bedroom offering extra privacy and space. It sits at the back of the house and has room for plenty of furniture. The en-suite primary bathroom features a walk-in shower, a wide vanity with his and her sinks, and a walk-in closet. The second and third bedrooms are flexible and can be used however you like—guest rooms, hobby rooms, an office, or even a den. A second full bathroom is located conveniently in the hallway between the guest bedrooms and is clean, bright, and easy to access. One feature many homeowners appreciate is having a dedicated laundry room inside the home. The laundry room is large enough for your washer, dryer, and storage shelves for supplies. Step out the back door and you’re greeted by a wooded walkway that winds gently through the trees behind the house. At the end of the path is a deck overlooking a peaceful creek, a hidden retreat right in your own backyard. The sunroom is another highlight of this home. With large windows that bring the outdoors in, it’s a space that stays bright and cheerful no matter the weather. It’s ideal for reading, crafting, or relaxing during the warmer months. You also have a large bonus room that the seller is currently using as a sewing room. The 55+ community itself is quiet and well-maintained and being in Lake City, you’re never far from what you need. Grocery stores, medical offices, and restaurants are all just a short drive away.
