Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. The debate between a house or villa is over! VIL-LA, VIL-LA! This darling low-maintenance villa will have you trading in all your lawn equipment for pickleball racquets & a golf cart! The never-ending chores are over, at least for the one who did the “outside” work! Now you can relax on the weekend, you’ve earned it! Whether you’re a full-time resident or snowbird or just love to travel, you can lock up & leave your home feeling confident it is well taken care of! Highland Lakes is a gated community located just off Hwy 27, 15 minutes North of Clermont in Leesburg. As you enter through the gates of this lovely neighborhood, you’ll notice the well-kept lawns and people enjoying a bike ride, walk & of course tooling around on their golf carts! The tropical foliage is usually in full bloom under the beautiful blue skies as clusters of oaks create shade to enjoy a book or picnic. The Sunshine State does not disappoint w/ its fair share of sunny mornings & breezy afternoons! This end-unit villa definitely feels more like a home w/ a spacious split floor plan featuring essentially 2 primary suites w/ new carpet & adjoining bathrooms on opposite sides of the house, nice to have a little elbow room! Both have walk-in closets & dual sinks. The dining room has a lovely built-in wood cabinet perfect for storing extra dishes & displaying the pretty things you just didn’t want to part with when downsizing! The cathedral ceilings are the perfect touch & really adds to the openness w/o losing the coziness! The great room is off to the right w/ ample space to accommodate family & guests w/ overflow onto the glass enclosed sunroom & terrace! This will be your favorite spot for your morning routine! Such a happy space w/ wood ceilings & a fan to keep you extra cool! Enjoy a glass of tea as you watch the gardeners mow & keep your big beautiful lawn looking perfect! You’ll notice the extra storage closets throughout the home, making it easy to keep things tidy! The eat-in kitchen is centrally located w/ plenty of counter & cabinet space, a breakfast bar & extra space for a table. All appliances convey including a new washer & dryer! Floors are LVP that are even more neutral in person (they do photograph kinda striped)! Move-in ready aside from a few personal updates, this home is truly immaculate. Pride of ownership shows w/ regularly scheduled maintenance on all components & new electrical panel! Another great feature is the overflow parking right next to the villa and a private 2 car garage! This home could rent for around $1,800 annually and up to $2,800 a month seasonally as an option, but the majority of the inhabitants in Highland Lakes are owners! This friendly, laid-back, 55+ community is just minutes from Florida’s turnpike for easy accessibility to all Central Florida has to offer! HOA includes a happening Clubhouse w/ a heated indoor pool, card, billiard & craft rooms! Enjoy dinners, clubs, bingo, concerts, socials & other planned activities year round! Take a swing at the driving range, followed by a swim in the refreshing pool! There’s everything from tennis & softball to pickle & bocce ball! The neighborhood has free Boat & RV storage & the Harris Chain of Lakes boat ramp is just 4 miles away! Be sure to check out the map showing all the amazing spots to travel by water, including Historic Downtown Mount Dora for lunch & shopping! After working hard all these years, maybe even shoveling snow, it’s time to own your little piece of PARADISE!
