BACKYARD OASIS WITH A FIREPIT GLOW. A REDESIGNED KITCHEN READY TO GO. GATED, GOLF CART FRIENDLY AND STEPS TO THE RESORT-STYLE POOL. Welcome to this updated home in the gated community of Verandahs of Hudson, offering 4 BEDROOMS, 2.5 BATHS, a FLEX SPACE (office/den) and a 2-CAR GARAGE with an EXPANDED DRIVEWAY for up to 4 vehicles, potentially 6. Enjoy the pond view from your SCREENED FRONT PORCH, then step inside to LUXURY VINYL PLANK flooring and updated lighting. The REDESIGNED KITCHEN showcases a stylish TWO-TONE CABINET design, with the perimeter cabinets in one finish and the enlarged island in a contrasting color, featuring drawers all around, plus a CUSTOM-BUILT PANTRY with abundant shelving and a built-in spice rack, opening to the living area with full-sized dining space nearby. The FLEX SPACE works as an office, study, playroom or sitting area, and the downstairs powder bath has an updated storage vanity. Upstairs, the REMODELED PRIMARY BATH features a spacious WALK-IN SHOWER with built-in seating, dual showerheads including a detachable wand, three shampoo niches, double vanities with QUARTZ countertop and brushed nickel hardware. BUT THE BACKYARD MAY STEAL THE SHOW! A fully fenced, southeast-facing yard with beautiful morning light offers an expanded patio (10x25), loveseat swing, IN-GROUND FIREPIT and a LARGE COVERED GAZEBO with fan, lighting, outlets and low-maintenance Trex composite decking. A tucked-away side area is perfect for a garden or play space, plus an 8x12 STORAGE SHED WITH ELECTRICITY. And one of the cutest extras: its own TORTOISE SHELTER. Buddy and Tipsy Tucker are not included, but the seller is willing to leave their shelter for buyers bringing their own shelled family members OR remove it completely! CONSIDERABLE IMPROVEMENTS: NEW ROOF (2022), NEW AC SYSTEM (2022), NEW WATER HEATER (2025), screened front porch (2022), expanded driveway, stone exterior accents and refreshed landscaping. Newer roof and AC can mean easier insurance. THE VERANDAHS offers gated entry and an economical Florida lifestyle with just over 400 homes. This GOLF CART FRIENDLY community features a clubhouse with kitchen, 24-HOUR FITNESS CENTER, RESORT-STYLE POOL, playground and community activities, all a short walk from this home. MINUTES TO THE SUNCOAST PARKWAY and a Publix shopping plaza, with quick access to SR 52 through the double-gated entrance. Survey available. If a smaller community with a relaxed vibe and less hustle and bustle appeals to you, Verandahs just might be the perfect fit.
