Welcome to elevated Florida living at its finest in this impeccably maintained Manchester model, offering 1,854 square feet, three bedrooms, and two baths on a nearly ¼-acre oversized lot, tucked away in a peaceful, private enclave within Highland Lakes—Pinellas County’s premier 55+ community on Lake Tarpon. Ideally located just one block from the clubhouse and golf course, this home is perfectly suited for walking and golf-cart living while enjoying a relaxed, resort-style lifestyle. Thoughtfully updated, the home features two primary suites (one with a flexible office or den), a beautifully renovated walk-in shower (2024), a screened front porch, vinyl flooring throughout, a dining-room skylight, ceiling fans, and a bright, open layout designed for comfortable everyday living and easy entertaining. The kitchen, enhanced with newer windows (2024), flows seamlessly into multiple living areas and has been updated with newer cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, with matching cabinetry carried through the dinette, laundry room, and both bathrooms. A versatile space with sliding glass doors and a closet offers flexibility as a third bedroom, media room, or game-day retreat, while the enclosed Florida room overlooks a quiet, park-like backyard featuring mature trees, lush landscaping, frequent wildlife sightings, a cozy fire pit, and efficient well-fed irrigation with rain-barrel catchment. Major upgrades include thermal tempered windows, enhanced attic insulation, a recently serviced Trane A/C system, an updated electrical panel (2017), a newer Florida room roof, a custom INDOOR laundry room with motion-activated lighting, and a two-car garage with workshop space and cabinetry; the guest bath offers a tub with refreshed grout and caulking, and safety grab bars are installed in both bathrooms. Located high and dry on one of the highest points in Pinellas County, the home sits above the floodplain and within a non-evacuation zone, offering added peace of mind. Highland Lakes delivers an unmatched active-adult lifestyle with three private 9-hole executive golf courses with no green fees, an Olympic-size heated pool, two clubhouses, a fitness center, sauna, tennis, pickleball, bocce, shuffleboard, a woodworking shop, and a full calendar of social events, fitness classes, and entertainment. The Arts & Crafts Annex offers studios, classes, and a woodshop, while the Lake Tarpon Lodge provides a rustic lakeside escape with panoramic views, a geothermal-heated pool, picnic and party areas, a butterfly garden, fishing pier, open dock, resident pontoon boats piloted by certified captains, and complimentary RV and boat storage. Ideally positioned near top Gulf beaches, the Pinellas Trail, outstanding dining and shopping, cultural attractions, excellent medical facilities, professional sports venues, two international airports, and an award-winning cruise port, this move-in-ready home presents a rare opportunity to enjoy both an exceptional residence and a vibrant, resort-inspired lifestyle in one of Tampa Bay’s most sought-after communities.
