Have you been on the hunt for a fabulous, one-story, pool home? Well, your search ends here! This Maitland home is an absolute gem, sitting on a large corner lot, with an over-sized, side-entry garage, an open pool, and a fenced-in backyard. The Sellers put their heart, and tons of money, into their home improvements, with intentions to stay forever….and now a special Buyer gets to reap the benefits! In 2019, a high-end Water Filtration & Softening System was installed for the entire home. Are you looking to be more energy efficient? You will love the $30,000 solar panel system that was installed in 3/2019. The average monthly energy bill is $85/month…these solar panels provide power BACK to the Duke Energy grid! The extensive upgrades include all new double pane windows (2019), plantation shutters (2020), renovated main bathroom - gutted down to the studs (2018), and new hardwood floors in 3 bedrooms….no carpet in this home! The home was painted from top to bottom, after they removed all the outdated popcorn & re-textured the ceilings…wow! Tons of electrical updates were made, including replacing light switches & outlets with white ones, and adding dimmer switches. Most light fixtures were updated, inside & out, and the can lights were swapped out for adjustable LED light bulbs. In addition to the updates and upgrades, the spacious rooms, tons of natural light, multiple living areas, and functional floor-plan make this home extremely desirable. The home is centered around a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace, and a happy sun-room wrapped in French doors, with backyard & pool views. From the over-sized garage, enter a large laundry/mud room with a utility sink, closet pantry, and the perfect ½ bath, with access to the backyard & pool. Outside, the sparkling pool is surrounded by a newer, pool security fence, while the fenced-in backyard offers additional safety, and plenty of space for outdoor activities. Located in the welcoming community of Stonewood, with wide streets, sidewalks, and lush trees, this home is simply a must-see!
