This beautifully updated residence features the largest two-bedroom, two-bath floor plan in the community and is ideally positioned as a second-floor corner unit offering exceptional privacy and natural light. High ceilings with crown molding create an open, airy feel throughout, while the thoughtfully designed layout provides excellent separation of living and bedroom spaces. The renovated kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring quiet-close cabinetry, pull-out drawers for pots and pans, brand-new stainless-steel appliances, expansive counter space, and a generous breakfast bar ideal for entertaining or casual dining. A brand-new stainless-steel washer and dryer enhance the homes move-in-ready appeal. The living and dining areas open seamlessly to a covered, private screened-in lanai overlooking mature tropical landscaping and a beautifully illuminated water fountain, creating a peaceful setting, especially in the evenings. The gated community offers resort-style amenities, including two swimming pools, a hot tub refurbished in 2025, a tennis court resurfaced in 2025, fitness center, clubhouse, library, and business center. The association has recently completed new roofs on all buildings, providing added long-term value and affordability. A garage is available for purchase separately, including an option located directly in front of the building, offering buyers flexibility based on their needs. Ideally located in the heart of Palmer Ranch, directly across from Publix, close to shopping and dining, just minutes to Siesta Key Beach, and with convenient access to I-75, this home offers an exceptional blend of space, comfort, and convenience.
