LOCATION***LOCATION***LOCATION***TOP RATED SCHOOLS***Welcome to FishHawk Ranch where residents enjoy a plethora of amenities including pickleball, tennis (5 Har Tru Courts at the Tennis Center), 7 pools (two designed with fountains and one even has a super fun slide), 4 fitness centers, basketball, skate park, multiple clubhouses and over 25 miles of trails winding throughout the community. In addition, a community event planner keeps the social calendar going with different events throughout the year. All you need is to find your dream home...and here it is! This established 2 story home is full of possibilities and features 4 generously sized bedrooms (all upstairs), 2 1/2 bathrooms, a 2 car garage and 2534 sf. all sitting on a rare pond lot. Enjoy water views from the main living area and 3 of the 4 bedrooms, including the primary bedroom, upstairs. The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom featuring a garden tub, separate walk-in shower, linen closet, dual sinks and a separate wash closet. The primary bedroom's closet is so large that the owner has been using half of it as a craft area! Part of the primary bedroom is a flex space ideal for an office, exercise room or library. All of the bedrooms have ceiling fans and the secondary bedrooms have wall treatments which adds to their charm. The main level of the home offers a functional layout including a well-appointed kitchen complete with island, 2 PANTRIES, a farm style sink, stainless steel appliances, 42 inch cabinets and plenty of granite countertop space. A dinette/casual dining area is located off of the kitchen which the owner has cleverly repurposed as an area where the party gathers (bar does not convey). A formal dining/living area is located off of the kitchen and easily accessible for those larger holiday festivities. The heart of this home is in the family room/kitchen area with spectacular views of the back yard with a waterfall feature as well as a pond. Sliding glass doors open on to a concrete pad off of the main living area where nature awaits and a back yard plenty large enough for a pool. Enjoy the sights and sounds of nature from the wooden swing as you are greeted by Sandhill Cranes and other wildlife. Or on those rare chilly days and evenings, cozy up to the fire pit. Looking for action? Living in this home, you are just around the corner from a stunning trail head and boardwalk that leads you through the woods and directly to the pickleball courts, tennis courts and a bit further, one of the seven pools. Also just a short distance away is a basketball court, roller hockey court and softball fields. Other pools and amenities are located throughout the community and may require a short drive or bike ride. The exterior of this home was painted in March/2021. The roof was replaced in June/2021. Both a/c units were replaced- upstairs unit June/2022 and downstairs unit October/2023. Don't miss the opportunity to make this distinctive home your own and unlock the possibilities it holds.
