Description

Set on a corner homesite in Covered Bridge Estates, this two-story Ellenton home comes with the big-ticket updates buyers ask about first: a new roof in 2024, replacement windows and front door in 2024, and A/C replaced in 2022. Add flood zone X (no lender-required flood insurance), no CDD fees, and low HOA dues, and it's a home that makes as much sense on paper as it does in person. The main floor is built for everyday living, featuring a combined living and dining area that flows seamlessly into the kitchen. Equipped with natural gas cooking, solid surface counters, and a casual eat-in nook, it's an easy place to start the morning or regroup after a long day. Sliding doors open to a covered patio and an expansive side yard with an irrigation system to keep the lawn lush year-round. Upstairs houses all three bedrooms, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet and a double vanity bath. An attached two-car garage rounds out the package. Covered Bridge Estates offers a clubhouse with a billiards room, a resort-style pool, fitness center, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, and a palm-lined lake. Daily errands stay close, from Ellenton Premium Outlet Mall and shopping along US-301 to quick I-75 access toward Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch, and Tampa Bay. Weekends can lead to the Manatee River or the Gulf beaches of Anna Maria Island. An updated home in an amenity-rich community is worth a closer look, so schedule your private showing today.
