Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to The Gardens, one of Seminole's most desirable 55+ communities, known for its peaceful, park-like setting and prime location near Lake Seminole Park. This freshly painted corner-unit, ground-floor 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers generous living space, added privacy, and exceptional flexibility. The oversized living area is currently arranged with a full dining set, showcasing the scale of the room, yet can easily function as an expansive living space. A separate dining area adjacent to the kitchen accommodates a full six-seat table, providing multiple layout options. The kitchen overlooks the main living area over a breakfast bar, creating an open, connected feel. The layout presents exciting potential to transform the space into a dream chef-style kitchen by opening the center bar wall and incorporating a large island design, similar to other beautifully renovated units within the community. The spacious primary suite offers a large bedroom, walk-in closet, and an oversized primary bathroom featuring dual sinks and a step-in shower. The second bathroom includes a tub, providing the convenience of both options for those who prefer a walk-in shower or relaxing bath. A water heater was installed in January 2026. The screened rear door provides convenient access toward the heated pool and clubhouse just moments away. This unit includes two covered carports, a valuable and uncommon feature within The Gardens, as not all units offer dual covered parking. Residents enjoy biking and walking along the waterways and landscaped grounds with direct access to adjacent Lake Seminole Park. Just minutes away is The Seminole City Center, an outdoor shopping and dining destination featuring restaurants, boutiques, major retailers, and a dine-in movie theater. On the first Friday of each month, the City Center hosts live music for dancing and socializing. The City of Seminole also offers a public library and a community recreation center with affordable memberships that include exercise classes, art classes, and social events. Community amenities include a heated pool, clubhouse, shuffleboard courts, and beautifully maintained grounds. Approximately 10 minutes to Madeira Beach and the Gulf beaches. Priced competitively, this home offers an excellent opportunity to update and build equity, as renovated units within The Gardens have achieved higher sale prices. Whether full-time or seasonal, this corner-unit, ground-floor residence delivers space, privacy, convenience, and strong value potential in one of Seminole's most convenient 55+ communities.
