Under contract-accepting backup offers. Discover comfort, space, and charm in this inviting home that is sure to become your own Florida oasis. This spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits on a rare and generously sized .42-acre lot—offering a garden-like backyard that’s larger than most in Central FL. A NEW ROOF and glass skylights were just added in Feb 2025. As you approach the home, notice the SIDE-FACING GARAGE, which adds a touch of distinction to the home’s aesthetic. The front yard landscaping was recently updated. As you enter, note the foyer and coat closet - both rare gems in Florida! The modern tile was just updated within the last 2 years. The living room boasts a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace and vaulted ceilings. Other notable interior features include: SPLIT BEDROOM FLOOR PLAN, separate dining space with French doors, built-in desk and storage, and a window seat facing the front yard. The primary bedroom features plantation shutters, a WALK-IN CLOSET with shoe storage and double racks, and ensuite bath with tile shower. The back room/family room is stunning! The high, tongue-and-groove ceilings and beautiful windows allow for loads of natural light. It has its own AC system, so it can be enjoyed all year round. Picture yourself with a cup of tea and a good book, looking into the exquisite backyard. The AC (with UV) and ductwork were totally replaced in 2016, and the electrical panel has been updated. The original owner still owns the home and says this floor plan is totally unique to the neighborhood! The Howell Cove community has no formal HOA (aka no management company), although there are a group of residents that lovingly care for the front entrances and host community events. Located directly across the street from Red Bug Lake Park, you can enjoy amenities such as tennis courts, a playground, dock, and walking paths without paying an HOA fee. Red Bug Elementary is < 1 mile away, the Willa Springs shopping plaza (including Publix) is < 1.5 miles away.
