**MULTIPLE OFFERS—-HIGHEST & BEST BY 6PM 3/20/21** This beautiful home is located in the highly desirable community of Saddlebrook, a well-established neighborhood zoned for THORNBROOKE ELEMENTARY, and featuring a COMMUNITY POOL, clubhouse and playground. The towering trees and larger lots can’t be duplicated in newer subdivisions. Sitting on a quiet CUL-DE-SAC STREET, this home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, OFFICE, and SCREENED POOL & PATIO. The ROOF AND A/C ARE ONLY 5 YEARS OLD, and the home was replumbed in 2016! A double-door entry leads you to an open floorplan with immediate views of the pool. NEWER PERGO FLOORING graces the living room, dining room, family room and kitchen. A convenient OFFICE is located at the front of the home, featuring French doors and bamboo flooring. This would also be an ideal “flex area”; perfect for playroom, fitness or music room. Transom windows are found above the front door, dining room windows, and all sliding doors, which allow for lots of natural sunlight. This SPLIT FLOORPLAN features the master on one side of the home and two bedrooms and bath on the opposite wing. The newly renovated kitchen is located in the heart of the home, overlooking the spacious family room and views to the pool and back yard. Remodeled in 2019, the kitchen now features a new walk-around COUNTER-HEIGHT ISLAND & breakfast bar, gorgeous QUARTZ COUNTERS, 2-yr old Bosch Stainless Steel dishwasher, and a striking set of TWO-TONE UPPER/BOTTOM CABINETS in white & Maritime colors, which are adorned with crown molding. Other benefits include Maytag STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES (side-by-side fridge with water/ice maker, built-in microwave, and smooth-top range with a DOUBLE CONVECTION OVEN), a pantry and adjacent laundry room. Vaulted ceilings, a massive BUILT-IN ENTERTAINMENT CENTER, and sliding glass doors to the pool all help to make the family room a great gathering haven. The master suite offers an enormous 8x9 DOUBLE-SIDED WALK-IN CLOSET, sliding doors to the patio/pool, and ensuite bath equipped with a GARDEN TUB, WALK-IN SHOWER and double vanity sink. Both the master bath and guest bathroom feature attractive marble counters, and the guest bathroom serves as the POOL BATH with access to the back yard. Additional upgrades include a pre-wired alarm system, chair rail in one bedroom, several art niches, and WHIRLPOOL DUET STEAM FRONT LOAD WASHER AND DRYER. The exterior doesn’t disappoint either. The entire property is FENCED and boasts mature landscaping. The back yard retreat is an entertainer’s dream!
