WITH A 2023 ROOF, 2021 AC, AND A BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED KITCHEN, you can rest easy in this custom-designed and -constructed home that adds a big storage building on its woodsy 1.7 acres set back from a quiet cul-de-sac! Get the best of "town and country" in this special spot near the Alafia River, close by the conveniences of suburban Riverview but nestled among the trees without deed restrictions or fees. A double-loop driveway provides smooth access for trucks, trailers, boats or an RV, and the 375-SF iron-and-steel outbuilding has 12 feet of interior storage height with a 10-by-9-foot roll-up door. Original owners have spent 4 decades caring for this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home they created with a wide-open design -- which "lives larger" than 1,633 SF, thanks in part to a 556-SF screened and roof-sheltered lanai. French doors lead to this secondary living space that looks east over the tree-shaded yard. The lanai is tiled in its own style, along with the rest of the home that's carpet-free. Inside, beside a spacious living and dining area featuring a brick fireplace, you'll find an island kitchen offering granite counters, raised-panel wood cabinets with crown molding, undermount sink, tile backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances that include a dual-fuel range (electric oven with propane gas cooktop). There's a brand-new vent hood, too. Together with the updated roof and AC, this property is more than ready for its second-ever owners! Could that be you?
