222 park forest

Time to sit back, relax and soak in the Florida lifestyle as you enjoy the beautiful, serene, wooded preserve this lot offers! This highly desirable, gated, 55+ community in Park Forest will not only keep you busy with activities, but also bring you peace of mind with the well-managed maintenance this community offers. The owners of this PARTIALLY FURNISHED home went above and beyond by replacing the roof in January, 2023! Upon entry, the separate dining room with several windows can also be used as a den or an office. Kitchen has been fully updated, including cabinets, granite countertops, and all stainless steel appliances less than two years old. The huge living room and breakfast area have an almost seamless access to the converted lanai which has been enclosed to enjoy the same cool or warm temperature as the rest of the home. The master bedroom has enough space for an office, with a large custom desk and shelving tastefully built while leaving generous space for the large bedroom set. (Seller used this as a quilting/sewing station.) Both bathrooms have been upgraded with granite countertops and cabinetry. All ceiling fans were recently replaced, and window treatments are another great feature! Furnishings include master and guest bedroom set, breakfast table and chairs, lanai sofa, chair, coffee table, end tables and bookcase, desk and small cabinet. Aluminum hurricane shutters are there for even more peace of mind. Park Forest amenities include a new roof every 17 years, fresh exterior paint every 7 years, a community pool that is heated during the winter months and chilled for the warmer months, full ground maintenance, including landscape pruning and weeding, and gray water irrigation for your yard. Take your pick of the many activities to enjoy: tennis, bocce ball, pickleball, shuffleboard, swimming, or head on over to the Clubhouse to see what's on the calendar of events! If that's not enough, golf courses, marinas and the boating lifestyle are all nearby! Park Forest is less than a 10 minute drive to Englewood Beach and Downtown Dearborn Street, and just 5 minutes from grocery shopping and your local hospital. Time to settle in and enjoy this exciting part of life - you've earned it! Schedule your showing today!!
