A NEW TILE ROOF installed (January 2024). You don’t have to be a math major to see the value here. With its new roof in place, you will find an opportunity to capture an extraordinary piece of University Park, a resident-owned, award-winning, gated-enclave of individual neighborhoods with miles of tree-lined streets for walking & biking. This affordable, free-standing waterfront home is move-in ready, and at the same time, offers tremendous upside potential in the arms of a buyer with exceptional taste. There’s plenty of space out back for a bumped-out lanai or even a pool, in fact, neighbors to either side have one. As the new owner, you will find gas lines in place to dream-up and renovate a new kitchen around a top-of-the-line Thermador range and create your own gourmet kitchen. Put in a Sub-Zero. Pick some unusual granite. Let your imagination be your budget. You decide. Recent and nearby comparable home sales will CLEARLY SUBSTANTIATE the sophisticated elegance of your upgrade budget. Rest assured, the home will accommodate you comfortably while you consider your updating options and shuffle Benjamin Moore paint chips. In addition to the new roof (January, 2024) you will find a newer A/C (2022) as well as Water Heater (2019). The Seller wanted us to be sure to mention the 10-foot+ ceilings that provide for plenty of light, but we didn’t want you to suffer great anxiety and worry that your artwork may not fill the wall space, so we won’t. Sit back. Relax. Enjoy the waterfront wildlife. The HOA maintains the grounds and a community pool as well as keeps folks engaged with a number of neighbor-friendly activities. Full University Park Country Club memberships are available WITHOUT A WAITING LIST, unlike some of our celebrated counterparts east of I-75. Although a social membership is required (Approximately $1100 annually), you will find it’s worth every dime. Step up your membership level to enjoy 27-holes of championship golf, eleven lighted Har-Tru tennis courts, as well as pickleball & a spirited fitness center full of inspiration. Prospective buyers should feel free to stop in at the Club’s Park Grille for lunch or Sunday brunch. It is open to the public and will give you a taste for life in this dynamic community. Minutes to the Ringling Museum, UTC Mall, downtown, & stunning Gulf Coast beaches as well as the airport.
