One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. You will absolutely love this move-in ready 2 bedroom, 1 bath home in the friendly, gated 55+ community of Skyview Estates in southeast Lakeland. This home has newer windows, solid wood kitchen cabinets, and newer Formica counter tops; propane gas stove and new vinyl flooring and sub floors in the bathroom and bedrooms. The bedrooms conveniently open into the large full bath with lots of storage and a shower/tub enclosure. The home is heated by a Sunstar Corcho propane gas heater, and is cooled by an LG8000 BTU window unit in the living room/kitchen area and another window unit in the bedroom so there is no concern maintaining any duct work underneath the home. This home is one of the very few in Skyview on city sewer so again you will have no maintenance concerns regarding a septic tank. The large screened lanai has new indoor/outdoor carpeting and is the perfect place to catch the morning sun while reading the newspaper and enjoying your morning coffee. The home's exterior was freshly painted six months ago. The very spacious, beautiful back yard is mostly fenced, and backs up to a wooded area, and with no BACK YARD NEIGHBORS, and being situated on the end of a dead end street, this home will provice you with a quiet, private haven where you can sit back and relax and grow your own food on the land YOU OWN. A large nearly new shed with loft storage is included with the sale. Because YOU OWN THE LAND, THERE IS NO LOT RENT, and the HOA is only $400 per YEAR - that's only $33.33 per month. There is a nature/hiking trail owned by the community where residents can take a leisurely walk as well as a community dog park. The community is on Blue Lake which is stocked for fishing, so come to the community pocket park with lots of comfortable seating and a firepit and a dock where you can do some fishing and relax with your new neighbors and friends. The clubhouse and library is open for residents' use and for the many fun scheduled activities. Call to schedule your private tour or consultation on this great home!
