Updated Classic Split Ranch on a fully fenced, almost quarter acre lot in the DeSoto Lakes community, minutes from UTC and I75. Experience "Old Florida" in the backyard overlooking a waterway with no neighbors behind you. This home has been newly painted as well as new gutters and downspouts installed, and is surrounded by mature trees and wildlife; you would think you were in the country! The open floor plan is freshly painted, with cathedral ceilings in the living/dining room and brand new vinyl plank flooring throughout the main level. There is a small deck that is accessed through a sliding glass door from the dining room and it is perfect for having your morning coffee outside, watching the sun come up and surrounded by nature greeting a new day! The wood burning fireplace in the living room makes it cozy for those "chilly" Florida evenings. The kitchen is spacious and open with matching Samsung Stainless Steel appliances, stainless steel double-sink, brand new granite countertops and subway tile backsplash. There are a total of three bedrooms on the main level, the Master bedroom having an ensuite bathroom and the other two bedrooms having access to the hallway bathroom. Both bathrooms had recently been updated and have ceramic tile floors. The lower level has direct access to the huge, attached two-car garage with automatic garage door openers as well as a laundry room and another Master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. The bonus room on this level would make the perfect home office, a gym or possibly another bedroom and all the flooring on this level is ceramic tile. There is direct access to the backyard from the bedroom through a sliding glass door to a lovely patio or from the garage.
