About this home
Welcome to 104 Melissa Trail — a beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home nestled in the sought-after gated community of Lake Arietta Reserve in Auburndale! Sitting on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood at nearly half an acre, this 2,430 sq. ft. family-friendly home built in 2006 offers space, comfort, and an impressive list of updates that today's buyers are looking for. The home is tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, making it the perfect setting for families looking for a safe, peaceful environment to call home. Lake Arietta Reserve is a private, gated community known for its beautiful surroundings, well-maintained homes, and friendly neighbors. As a resident, you'll enjoy exclusive private access to Lake Arietta, a large private lake perfect for fishing, kayaking, or simply unwinding at the water's edge. Auburndale itself is one of Central Florida's fastest-growing and most desirable cities, offering a charming small-town feel with convenient access to I-4, shopping, dining, and all that the greater Orlando and Lakeland areas have to offer. Step inside and you're greeted by a thoughtful triple-split floor plan, offering privacy for every member of the household. The spacious master suite is a true retreat, featuring a large walk-in closet, garden tub, dual sink vanity, and walk-in shower. A formal dining room and den/office provide flexible living space, while the open kitchen flows seamlessly into the large family room — perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The utility room connects conveniently to the two-car garage. Out back, enjoy your own private oasis with a fully fenced yard and an oversized screened-in lanai, ideal for year-round Florida living. The professionally landscaped grounds are maintained with ease thanks to an irrigation system fed by a dedicated irrigation well. This home is loaded with major updates and move-in-ready features. A brand new roof was installed in 2024, and solar panels have been added for outstanding energy efficiency — the average electric bill since installation has been just $30–32 per month. The solar system is leased at $135.20/month on a 25-year lease with a transferable balance. Additional upgrades include a Culligan whole-house water system, a freshly serviced AC unit in 2026, and a new well pump, also installed in 2026. Whether you're looking for a forever home, a place to raise your family, or simply a community where neighbors know your name, 104 Melissa Trail delivers it all. Opportunities like this in Lake Arietta Reserve don't come around often — schedule your private showing today before it's gone!
