Bayfront Living with Beautiful Water Views. Welcome to relaxed Florida living in this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath Bayfront residence, located on the fourth floor of an elevator building. With direct views of the bay, this inviting home offers a wonderful combination of comfort, convenience, and scenery. From the moment you step inside, your eyes are drawn to the expansive water views. Enjoy the peaceful Bayfront setting from the living room, primary bedroom, and covered open balcony-the perfect place to start your morning, unwind at the end of the day, or simply watch the activity on the water. Luxury vinyl wood-plank flooring flows throughout the residence, creating a clean and cohesive look. The spacious, open kitchen features quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry and counter space, a breakfast bar, tray ceiling, and a full complement of appliances. An enclosed former patio provides additional air-conditioned living space and is ideal for a home office, reading area, or quiet retreat, with the added convenience of a storage closet. Both bedrooms offer generous walk-in closets, while each bathroom features a walk-in shower. Hurricane shutters provide added peace of mind, and an assigned carport offers convenient, shaded parking. One of the best features of this rental is the value-cable, internet, water, and trash are all included, making monthly expenses that much easier. This welcoming 55+ community offers a swimming pool conveniently located in front of the building, providing a great place to relax, enjoy the Florida sunshine, and socialize with neighbors. The location puts you close to IMG Academy, State College of Florida, shopping, restaurants, entertainment, sporting and recreational activities, and much more.
