This FURNISHED detached home features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a spacious 2-car garage, complemented by the addition of a generous sunroom that extends your living space by 280 square feet. The pricing reflects the current state of the home, offering an affordable entry point into a gated community.. While some TLC is needed, with updates, you can customize the property to match your lifestyle and preferences, creating a space that truly embodies your concept of home. Upon entering the welcoming foyer, the vaulted ceilings immediately provide a sense of openness, seamlessly connecting the living and dining areas.

The secondary bedroom, situated off the living room, boasts a generous front window that fills the room with ample natural light. Notable features of this property include a new roof installed in 2023 and a 2016 air conditioning system. In Park Forest's phase 3, quarterly fees cover essential services such as lawn care, irrigation, roof replacement, and exterior painting, all without the burden of CDD fees (please refer to HOA documents for comprehensive details).
