Welcome to your FOREVER HOME located at 1400 SW Fifth Avenue! Conveniently located, this property is over half an acre and situated in city limits. But don't worry about missing out on an idyllic country setting because the front neighbor is a lush green pasture with cows and a white three-rail fence. Upon entrance, you will find the large semi-circular driveway which can hold multiple vehicles, so invite your entire contact list over for a celebration after you move in! The home sits on a huge corner lot which offers ample room for fun. Most properties boast about having a front yard and a backyard, but here at 1400 SW Fifth Avenue, there is also a beautiful side yard with a large oak tree just waiting to shade your loved ones as they gather. The backyard has a grilling pad, a freshly painted shed, and a deck surrounding the oversized and recently resurfaced pool (2021)! New pool pump and filter were replaced in 2021 also. Inside you will discover a nice open floor plan with a kitchen/family room/dining room combo. This three way split home has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, offering plenty of space for all of your housing needs. There is a bonus room, bathroom, and bedroom off the kitchen which has endless opportunities, but needs some of your TLC to make it whatever you desire! Warm engineered hardwood floors flow throughout the main areas of the home. Most of the bedrooms have wood flooring also. The ceramic tile in the kitchen is complimented by the warmth of the maple cabinets and granite countertops. Every window throughout the house has been replaced with hurricane rated windows (2019). The two guest bathrooms have been remodeled in recent years and are stunning! This home has been lived in and loved for many, many years. It awaits its new homeowners with bated breath!
