Welcome to The Forest, an active 55+ age-restricted and gated community that has long been a fixture on the Lake Mary landscape. Nestled comfortably on one of the more peaceful settings the community has to offer, this home backs up to conservation and a community trail with water views beyond. Recent and very important upgrades include a new roof installed in 2022, HVAC installed in 2021 and a new stainless steel appliance package installed only this year. To make your transition even more seamless, this home also conveys with a washer and dryer duo that is less than two years old! This home is also unique, being one of only a handful that has a garage in lieu of a carport and storage space. The garage is located on the rear of the property and not even visible from the road, and it has a workshop and a very large storage area also built-in already. Not to worry, even the garage door opener was recently replaced, so there’s one less thing to worry about! The Forest boasts very manageable HOA fees, and it offers an ongoing list of activities, a clubhouse, a heated spa and two community pools, lighted tennis and pickleball courts, and a multipurpose room known as the Sunrise Room. This is a multipurpose room where the community office is located, along with the library, craft room, billiard and card rooms, lounge, and there are even saunas found there. Welcome to The Forest, and welcome home.
