Nestled in the centrally located Lake Magdalene Arms Estates in Carrollwood, this charming 2,140 sq ft single-story home, built in 1976, features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a 2-car garage. At curbside, you’ll be welcomed by a park-like setting with a light post, plants and shrubs designed to attract butterflies. A brick walkway guides you from the driveway to the front door with its elegant leaded glass insert. Inside, to the right of the foyer, a spacious open living area awaits, perfect space for gatherings and easily convertible into a fourth bedroom with the addition of a wall and closet. To the left, the dining room is adorned with elegant chair rail, setting the stage for special occasion meals. The family room’s focal point is a cozy wood-burning fireplace with a brick surround and wood mantle, ideal for displaying family photographs, along with built-in shelving on the side for additional storage. The heart of the home, the updated kitchen features wood cabinets topped with crown molding, Corian countertops, and a stylish brick backsplash along the range side of the galley kitchen. Stainless steel appliances include a gas range, vent hood, dishwasher, free-standing microwave, and French door refrigerator, complemented by a built-in wine area with seating space. A Corian topped breakfast bar with a pass-through opens to the family room, and a French door leads to the lanai, completing the kitchen. Adjacent to the kitchen, a welcoming bar area includes a wood-topped L-shaped high bar with a tile base, wood plank ceiling, recessed lights, bar sink, a designated space for your wine fridge, and wine rack offering an excellent space for entertainment. The pantry, located just off the kitchen, provides ample storage. The roof and A/C were replaced in 2009, and the kitchen was updated in 2007. A newer water heater was installed in 2018. The oversized primary bedroom includes a ceiling fan and a single French door that opens to the screened lanai. You’ll appreciate the two walk-in closets and the ensuite bath, divided by a pony wall with spindles, features a tiled walk-in shower and a toilet area, with a door separating the double vanity with Corian countertops and double undermount sinks. The garage, equipped with a hurricane-rated door installed in 2015, includes washer and dryer hookups, a sink tub, and storage racks. A leased propane tank powers the oven, range, and hot water heater, while hot tub is electric powered. Outside, the screened patio and lanai offer perfect spaces for relaxing or entertaining. The fully fenced backyard is a tropical paradise with stepping stones, garden beds, a firepit, a BBQ area, and decorative travertine tiles meander throughout, finding its way to the hot tub and shed. Built in 2018, the shed provides a workspace for your projects. Best of all, NO HOA, NO CDD!
