One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Step into a beautifully kept, move in ready home in the private, gated community of Riva Trace. This two bedroom, two bath residence includes a separate office/den and has had one meticulous owner who maintained it with real care. The exterior was recently refreshed, the AC is newer, and the windows feature custom built in shutters and quality treatments throughout. The floor plan flows easily, offering warm hardwood in the main living spaces, tile where you need it, and soft carpet in the bedrooms for comfort. Several rooms look out toward the water, bringing in calm, natural views. The screened lanai extends your living space and gives you a quiet place to relax outdoors. The eat in kitchen provides granite countertops, tile flooring, and a bright bay window breakfast nook. A full laundry room and a two car garage add daily convenience and storage. Riva Trace is tucked away and quiet, yet minutes from University Town Center, Whole Foods, medical services, and a wide range of dining options. SRQ airport is roughly a 12 minute drive. A well cared for home in a prime location with immediate livability. Buyers will feel the pride of ownership the moment they walk in.
