The story
- Waterfront
Virtually Staged. Imagine your mornings starting like this: coffee in hand, the fog lifting off the pond, sunlight sparkling across the water, and nothing but birdsong to break the quiet. That’s everyday life in this beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa in the Tall Pines community, and that million-dollar view is right in your own backyard. This end-unit home sits on one of the largest original lots in Valley Wood, wrapped in lush viburnum hedges and filled with natural light. Step inside and the pond view follows you through the home. Enjoy it from the kitchen, where a sunny plant window and brand-new stainless LG appliances make cooking a pleasure. Or settle into the enclosed Florida room, the spot you’ll find yourself every evening watching the wildlife and the sunset glow. Everything has been done for you: new luxury vinyl flooring, custom window coverings, updated lighting and ceiling fans, curated paint, and beautifully refreshed bathrooms, including a tiled walk-in shower in the primary suite. Both bedrooms have large walk-in closets, and a pocket door gives the guest wing its own private retreat, perfect for visitors, a home office, or seasonal guests. Outside, the living keeps going. A charming front porch welcomes rocking chairs and greenery, and the expansive back patio is made for morning coffee, evening dinners, and slow weekends. Covered parking for two is included. The best part is that the HOA handles the roof, exterior paint, lawn, irrigation, trash, and roads. You get to spend your time living instead of maintaining. Lock it up and head north for the summer, or stay year-round and enjoy the clubhouse and community activities. A brand-new pub and restaurant is less than a 5-minute stroll from your door. Publix, shops, golf, and dining are just 2 minutes away. Starkey Wilderness Park’s hiking, biking, and birding trails are minutes away, and the Suncoast Parkway puts Tampa and the airport within 30 minutes. If you’re tired of renting, dreaming of a Florida getaway, or simply ready for a life with more peace and less upkeep, this is the one. It’s affordable, move-in ready, and genuinely special. Offered as-is. FHA, VA, conventional, and cash buyers welcome. The tulip light fixture in the back lanai does not convey. This community is open to all ages.
