One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to a totally updated pool home located in the serene countryside of Brooksville. Located on 2.5 acres of both wooded and cleared space, this home is ideal for those seeking tranquility, breathing space and a bit of nature. Stately trees line the exterior areas of this fenced property giving you a sense of privacy and relaxation. In the past 3 years, the interior was completely gutted and re imaged to accommodate a growing family. The spacious kitchen is a cook's dream with matching Samsung stainless appliances, quartz countertop, double oven, glass top stove with hood, farm sink, plenty of storage and an island. From the kitchen, you face an open living room/dining area concept with approximately 600 sq ft of area. If you still desire more space for gathering, this home also features a recreation/family room (14 x 13) complete with an electric fireplace, plenty of shelving/storage and an ideal spot for playing games, watching tv or doing homework (ugh). The family room leads directly to 3 spacious bedrooms, an office/den which could serve as another bedroom (no closet), and an open ''flex'' space (10 x 9) which gives you another option for a study/homework area, gaming area, craft room...you name it. The family room serves as a hub for all these rooms plus a full bath completely remodeled from top to bottom. The primary bedroom and ensuite bath are found on the opposite end of the home offering plenty of privacy and separation from the other bedrooms. The gorgeous ensuite bath has double sinks, large shower with seating bench and a rain shower head, modern soaking claw tub, and separate water closet. All flooring throughout is matching luxury vinyl with the exception of tiled bathrooms. Vaulted ceilings are found in kitchen and living areas with modern spot lighting. Newer baseboards of 7 1/4'' in kitchen and living areas and 5 1/4'' in all other rooms. Ceiling fans and smoke detectors in all bedrooms and most other rooms. Laundry room has closet and cabinet storage, a laundry tub and washer and dryer. Electrical panel has been updated. In August 2024, both the interior and exterior were freshly painted. One of the many enticing features of this home is the wrap around wood deck containing nearly 800 sq ft of usable area. More than 500 sq ft of this deck is covered. Picture yourself lounging on patio furniture or napping on a hanging swing enjoying your little piece of paradise. And don't forget about the inground pool where you can cool off anytime you desire. With plenty of space adjoining the pool to build a larger deck, this could be a great entertaining area for family and friends. The balance of the 2.5 acres are available to use as you see fit. No old sheds or crumbling barns to tear down. Landscape and build what you need. The home is absolutely move in ready, so spend your time and resources improving the blank canvas outside. Although you may feel like you are miles away from the busyness of life, Cortez Blvd is less than a mile away as the crow flies giving you easy access to I 75, the Sunshine Parkway and Hwy 50.
