Property Description
Virtually Staged. Welcome to this classic, low maintenance, ranch-style home in the desirable Forest Ridge neighborhood, located less than 2 miles from the University of Florida. Lovingly and meticulously maintained by the current owner for the past 46 years, built of sturdy concrete block with a timeless brick facade, this spacious 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers a combination of traditional character, flexible living spaces, and indoor-outdoor living. Mature landscaping including magnolia, crepe myrtle, palm trees provide year-round beauty to this ready to move-in home, with flexibility to accommodate changes to make it your own. A covered front porch with tile flooring welcomes you into the home, while the generous covered and screened rear patio provides a space for relaxing, dining, or entertaining year-round. Beyond the screened patio is an additional concrete patio providing plenty of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan features a separate living room, dining room, and family room, where a wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelving create an inviting gathering space. The kitchen is open to an area perfect for a breakfast table or casual dining. The four spacious bedrooms include a private primary suite tucked into the rear corner of the home, complete with an en suite bathroom. One of the bedrooms has a floor-to-ceiling, built-in book shelf. One of the home's most versatile features is the approximately 500 square foot bonus space, with its own private exterior entrance, a new mini-split system, and an additional 11' x 12' attached half bath/laundry room combo. Use it as a fifth bedroom, recreation room, home office, media room, studio, or guest space, or explore the possibility of modifying it into an attached accessory dwelling unit or in-law suite. Recent updates include freshly painted interior walls, a new roof in 2023, repiping and a new water heater in 2024, all new gutters in 2025, a new bonus room mini-split system in 2026, a re-screened porch in 2026, and a new A/C condenser in 2021
