A rare find in Mainlands with outdoor living space that truly sets it apart! While many homes in the community have converted their lanais into interior Florida rooms, this beautifully maintained home has preserved its expansive 30-by-11-foot lanai for enjoying the outdoors. This is the kind of space that becomes part of your everyday routine and a feature you'll appreciate long after moving day. A tile roof installed in September 2023 and hurricane impact windows and doors installed throughout in 2015 add to the appeal. Stepping inside, gorgeous AquaGuard ® Waterproof Laminate Flooring and fresh paint flow throughout an open floorplan, where a spacious living room leads to two separate areas offering flexibility for dining and entertaining. The kitchen features solid wood cabinetry coupled with granite countertops and all new stainless steel appliances. The spacious primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet with a closet system and an ensuite bathroom with new tile flooring. French doors lead directly to the lanai, keeping that inviting outdoor space just steps away. Solid wood plantation shutters add a finished touch throughout, while the driveway and front porch were updated with pavers in 2016. The garage offers additional storage space and laundry with washer and dryer included for added convenience. An affordable monthly maintenance fee covers roof repairs and replacement, lawn care, exterior painting, water, sewer, trash, reclaimed water irrigation, internet, and two digital cable boxes. With so many expenses and exterior maintenance needs included, you'll have more time to enjoy everything around you. Mainlands is an active 55+ community featuring a clubhouse, in-ground pool heated yearround, shuffleboard courts, and a full calendar of activities. The neighborhood surrounds an 18-hole public golf course, putting your next round close to home. Adjacent Freedom Lake Park offers paved walking trails around two lakes, outdoor fitness equipment, bocce courts, a playground, picnic pavilions, and a dog park. You can even catch sailboat racing on the lake! Centrally located in Pinellas Park, you're connected to so much of what makes Tampa Bay special. Nearby US 19 and connections to I-275 and the Gateway Expressway provide convenient routes toward St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Tampa. Spend a morning along downtown St. Pete's waterfront, grab lunch on Beach Drive, or explore the St. Pete Pier. Head west for sandy Gulf beaches and sunset dinners, or across the bay for Tampa's Riverwalk, shopping, and sporting events. Everyday shopping and dining are just a golf cart ride away to Walmart Supercenter and Aldi, along with easy access to both St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport and Tampa International Airport. Come experience the convenience of this location and the outdoor living space that makes this home such a rare find!
