Welcome to a beautifully maintained 3-bed, 2-bath home that truly feels like a retreat — perfect for families, retirees, or anyone looking for comfort and space. Built in 2002 with solid concrete block and stucco construction, this home sits on a rare 0.42-acre lot in the heart of charming, old-Florida San Antonio. Step inside to an open-concept layout featuring a bright kitchen with quartz countertops, a welcoming dining area, and a spacious living room ideal for gatherings. Double French doors connect the living room and primary suite to the expansive air-conditioned Florida room, offering nearly 12 feet of open access to the fully screened-in pool area — perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the Florida sunshine year-round. The primary suite includes a generous walk-in closet, updated cabinetry, and a beautifully finished bathroom with a large, inviting shower. This home is designed for comfort and efficiency with central HVAC, a split system heat pump, electric backup heat, 10 ceiling fans, dual-pane windows, and extra attic insulation. Fresh interior and exterior paint, along with durable laminate and tile flooring, make it move-in ready. Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers a low-maintenance, water-conserving landscape, plus space for gardening, a storage shed, and parking for a lawnmower or tools. There’s plenty of room for a fishing boat or utility trailer, plus off-street parking for 4+ vehicles. The home also includes an enclosure for a backup generator with a 50-amp temporary input option. Enjoy peace of mind with a top-quality GAF asphalt shingle roof (2019) and the convenience of an attached 2-car garage. HVAC sqft is 1609 as reflected in public record, however, actual HVAC sqft is 1951 due to Florida room HVAC install. Located just 35 miles north of Tampa, this quiet neighborhood offers quick access to I-75, Publix, restaurants, the post office, and more. Saint Leo University and beautiful Lake Jovita are only a mile away, and several AdventHealth hospitals are within a short drive. City water here is known for being exceptionally clear and great tasting. This is a rare opportunity to own a spacious, well-cared-for home in one of Florida’s most charming small towns.
