Description

FRESHLY UPDATED & RELAUNCHING: Built in 2023, this townhome offers advantages of newer construction with valuable owner-added improvements. Fresh interior paint, professionally cleaned carpets and tile flooring provide a refreshed presentation for its next owner. The open main level features ceramic tile flooring, recessed lighting, and a functional layout designed for comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen showcases quartz countertops (carried throughout the home), black shaker cabinetry, a deep farmhouse sink with touchless faucet, matching stainless steel GE appliances, spacious closet food pantry, and a center island offering additional cabinetry. A breakfast bar connects the kitchen to the living area, with thoughtfully placed electrical outlets providing extra convenience. Upstairs, the primary suite is privately separated from the two secondary bedrooms and features a spacious walk-in closet, dual vanities, and an upgraded glass-enclosed shower—an owner-added improvement beyond the builder's standard features. The second-floor laundry closet, conveniently located between the secondary bedrooms, includes a stackable washer and dryer. A full guest bathroom upstairs and powder room downstairs complete the home's 2.5-bath layout. Step outside to the screened lanai, another owner-added improvement, featuring a ceiling fan and peaceful views of surrounding greenery. The community was thoughtfully planned as the back porches are not directly facing other homes. Unlike many association communities, grilling is permitted within the community. Additional features include an Ecobee smart thermostat with app-based control, window blinds, pre-installed TV mounts, neatly stored aluminum storm shutters for all openings, and a one-car garage with smartphone-controlled access. Driveway parking and nearby guest spaces provide additional parking options, while the community mailboxes are steps from the home. PRACTICAL DETAILS THAT MATTER: The A/C air handler is located in its own second-floor closet for easy maintenance upkeep rather than tucked into an attic. The exterior condenser is positioned behind the home rather than on the roof. The 50-gallon water heater is in the garage, preserving valuable interior closet space. These are often-overlooked features worth considering when comparing townhomes. LOW-MAINTENANCE LIVING WITHOUT CDD FEES OR A LAND LEASE! Quarterly-not monthly-association dues of $571.80 (equivalent to just $190.60 per month) include cable, internet, grounds maintenance, irrigation, common-area upkeep, property management, and exterior building maintenance, including the roof. Located in Holiday, near the Pasco/Pinellas County line, this community offers convenient access to US-19, Tarpon Springs, and surrounding Gulf Coast destinations. Enjoy nearby outdoor recreation at Anclote River Park, Key Vista Nature Park, and Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Preserve, with opportunities for hiking, biking, boating, and exploring nature. The famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks offer waterfront dining, shopping, and entertainment, while the Anclote sandbar remains a popular destination for boaters and water enthusiasts. Newer construction, thoughtful upgrades, practical maintenance features, potential insurance savings, and manageable association dues—all worth comparing when shopping for your next home.
