About this home
Priced to sell — all reasonable offers welcome! Great opportunity in the gated 55+ community of Park Forest with LOW HOA fees, NO CDD fees, and NO flood insurance required. Recent updates include new DuraLux waterproof luxury vinyl flooring in the kitchen, dining area, and bedrooms. This bright split-floor-plan home features vaulted ceilings, a screened lanai with peaceful water views, a versatile den/office, and an inside laundry room. The kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, pantry, and sunny bay-window dining area. The community offers a wide variety of activities, clubhouse, pool, pickleball, and is golf cart friendly. HOA covers lawn care, irrigation, roof replacement, exterior painting, and common areas. Conveniently located near historic Dearborn Street and less than 15 minutes to the beaches of Manasota Key, Venice, and Nokomis.
Local Insight
At $194/sqft in a 55+ community with a water view and no flood zone issues, this is reasonably priced for the area, but the 1987 construction means you'll want a thorough inspection—roof, HVAC, and plumbing are likely due or overdue. The $242 monthly HOA is moderate for a gated 55+ community, though you're working with just 1,542 sqft and 0.15 acres, so this is a compact, lock-and-leave lifestyle, not a sprawling retreat. The water view adds appeal, but confirm what you're actually seeing (pond, canal, retention area) since sightlines matter significantly in a smaller lot.
