Welcome home to the serene and established community of Summer Lakes, where this beautifully updated waterfront pool home awaits! No flood insurance required, low HOA fees and no CDD, this home is truly a place to settle in and enjoy for the long haul. As you drive through the picturesque neighborhood, you'll notice winding sidewalks, peaceful pond views, and lush landscaping that set the tone for this two-story stunner. A screened-in front porch welcomes you inside, where soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, and natural light filtering through plantation shutters create a warm and inviting ambiance. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and nearly 1,800 square feet, this split-bedroom floorplan is designed with comfort and functionality in mind. The fully renovated kitchen (2022) is a dream come true for any home chef—featuring level 3 quartz countertops, marble tile backsplash, soft-close cabinetry with built-in spice rack, double oven, and oversized deep sink complete with racks. With 42” upper cabinets, stainless steel appliances (all 2022, fridge 2019), and a cozy coffee bar, it’s as beautiful as it is practical. The first-floor owner’s suite is a retreat in itself with a cedar-lined walk-in California closet and an elegantly updated ensuite bathroom showcasing dual sinks, a garden tub, and a seamless glass walk-in shower with rainfall showerhead and bench. Smart storage solutions can be found in the built-in drawers under the staircase and the separate storage room, while a half bath on the main floor offers added convenience for guests. Upstairs, a lofted flex space overlooks the main living area, complete with built-in bookcases and entertainment center lined with chair rail detailing. Both upstairs bedrooms feature charming built-in window seats with storage, and one includes another cedar-lined closet. A full bathroom completes the second level. Step outside and you’ll find a backyard oasis perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. A screened-in, fully pavered lanai surrounds the saltwater pool complete with sun shelf, waterfall feature, and depth ranging from 3.5 to 7.5 feet. A removable child safety fence adds peace of mind, while the oversized white vinyl fenced backyard with avocado and orange trees offers privacy and a scenic pond view for watching nightly sunsets. With big-ticket items already updated—roof (2022), AC (2019), and tankless water heater (2022)—this home is truly move-in ready. Ideally located near schools, shopping, dining, and just minutes to downtown New Port Richey and the stunning Florida coastline, you’ll love calling Summer Lakes home.
