About this home
Enjoy peaceful lakeside living in this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home situated on 1.22 acres with a 24x30 detached garage along the shores of Lake Buffum in Fort Meade. Offering 1,741 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space as well as a private dock, this property combines modern updates with the tranquility of country, waterfront living. Step inside to an open floor plan filled with natural light from large windows that showcase the scenic surroundings. The spacious kitchen has been refreshed with new countertops, updated cabinetry, and a stylish backsplash, making it the perfect space for cooking and entertaining. The laundry room is conveniently close yet out of the way off the kitchen and includes the washer and dryer. The generously sized primary suite provides a relaxing retreat with a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and a garden tub. Two additional bedrooms have been updated with new carpet and offer flexibility for family or guests. Outdoor living is just as impressive with an expansive 460-square-foot screened-in porch overlooking the lake—ideal for enjoying your morning coffee, hosting friends, or unwinding at the end of the day. The 1.22-acre property also features a 24x30 detached garage/workshop with plenty of space for storage, hobbies, or projects, as well as a smaller detached shed for additional storage. An outdoor fish cleaning station offers added convenience for anglers and could also serve as the perfect setup for an outdoor kitchen. For added peace of mind, the home is equipped with a Generac generator. With beautiful lakefront views, modern updates, and plenty of indoor and outdoor living space, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and peaceful Florida living.
