Property Description
Welcome to this charming brick pool home nestled on 1.08 acres in the highly sought-after Kenwood community, lovingly owned by a Master Gardener whose passion is reflected in every inch of the lush, Florida-friendly landscape. Bursting with blooming flowers, vibrant plants, and mature trees year-round, this property offers a private, colorful retreat complete with a dedicated storage unit for all your gardening tools. The 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 2,410 sq ft home features a screened-in pool with a state-of-the-art cleaner, new pump (2025), new screen (2024), and electrical hook-ups ready for solar on the brand-new 2025 roof. Additional updates include exterior paint (2021), interior paint (2025), and a new septic system (2024). Inside, vaulted ceilings, tall windows, and skylights fill the home with natural light. The spacious owner's suite offers a walk-in closet, private pool access, and separation from the additional bedrooms—including a unique lofted room perfect for creativity and play. Enjoy cozy evenings in the family room featuring brick fireplace and built-ins, or welcome guests in the traditional living and dining rooms. The screened lanai overlooks a breathtaking, butterfly-friendly garden where you can relax with morning coffee in total privacy. All of this just minutes from shopping, restaurants, hospitals, I-75, the University of Florida, UF Health/Shands, and Gator game days. Zoned for A-rated schools: Wiles, Kanapaha, and Buchholz.
