Welcome home! This phenomenal three bedroom, three bathroom home is nestled away in the highly desirable Christina Chase neighborhood, a gated community in South Lakeland just off of 540A. Lush landscaping and a sodded yard along with a paver driveway draw you in to an entry with a high arched entry, a quaint front porch equally understated and grand at the same time with room enough for a bench or potted plants. Upon entry, there's a closet to your right and to your left, a bedroom at the front of the home and an office with french door entry, perfect for a work-from-home job or convertible into a play room. The living space is completely open, each of the spaces defined by flooring and by archways that all coalesce in a central support column. The living room is straight ahead with a three panel slider leading out to the lanai, allowing lots of natural light into the home. The dining area has hardwood flooring with a chandelier to hang over the dining room table. The kitchen is, in a word, fantastic. A two-tiered island with stone counters provides bar top style seating, loads of prep space, storage, and the sink. The back wall is loaded with even more cabinetry, a glass cooktop, built-in oven and microwave, and an oversized refrigerator. There's also a closet pantry! In addition to the front bedroom and office, this home features both a master suite and a secondary bedroom with an en suite bath that can be used as a double master or an in-law / guest suite. The master bedroom is spacious with a window overlooking the lanai, a walk-in closet, high ceilings, dual vanities, an abundance of storage, walk-in shower, and soaker tub. The second suite has a smaller en suite with one vanity, but still ample storage and a shower/tub combo. Crown molding flows throughout the home along with large baseboards and neutral wall colors to provide a tranquil and upscale blank canvas to make your own. Schedule a private showing today to get the chance for this to be your next home! With excellent schools, privacy, security of a gated community, and all of the finishes, this home certainly won't last long!
