One or more photos was virtually staged. During Hurricane Helene the water only came a few feet onto the edge of the driveway! The living level is over 2 feet higher than the driveway! Welcome home to this fantastic 2-bedoom 2-bathroom 2-car garage villa at The Villas at Long Bayou! This 55+ sixteen-unit enclave is located in a larger community with 24-hour guarded/gate access. This residence is positioned in close proximity to the Gulf beaches and has easy access to shopping and dining at the new, Seminole City Center. Step inside and fall in love with the light and bright gem, it features a split bedroom plan, volume ceilings, inside laundry, crown molding, and a wood burning fireplace. The primary bedroom is nicely appointed and features a large walk-in closet plus ensuite bathroom with dual vanities. Updates to this residence are numerous and include an all-new kitchen featuring wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops, vinyl flooring and carpet, and updated bathrooms. The roofs were replaced by the association and the A/C system was all new in 2024. Step out back to the screen enclosed porch, the perfect place for that morning cup of coffee or to relax while enjoying the outdoors. Directly across from this corner unit villa, is the community center, boasting a clubhouse with a banquet hall, swimming pool, tennis courts, fitness center, shuffleboard courts, billiards room and a social room with personal lockers for your favorite beverages.
