This is one of 54 townhomes in the SMALL AND DOG-FRIENDLY COMMUNITY of Riverwalk Preserve bordering the Cotee River and county-owned nature preserve where you can fish, kayak, and see manatees, turtles and birds of all kinds along a wooded walking trail. These well-built townhomes have hurricane-rated, impact-resistant windows and doors; post-tension foundations for maximum stability; and walls with added fire and sound protection -- which will yield homeowner's insurance discounts. NO FLOOD INSURANCE is required and there is NO CDD added to your annual tax bill. There was no damage or flooding during the hurricanes of the past few years. The LOW HOA includes all outdoor maintenance, a beautiful pool and hot spa tub, public water/sewer, roof replacements, termite bond and regular pest maintenance, and Spectrum internet and cable TV. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large and include upgrades of high-end ceiling fans, plenty of closets, frameless glass shower doors, granite counters with under-mounted sinks, cabinetry with useful drawer storage, taller comfort toilets, and recessed lighting. A bonus loft area also has a window and closet and is ideal for an entertainment or office space. A laundry closet is conveniently located on the second floor in a hallway outside the primary bedroom suite. A one-car garage with epoxy floor and hurricane-rated impact steel door will help keep your vehicle and belongings safe and secure. A screened lanai and outdoor patio overlooking a natural pond teaming with wildlife add a wonderful outdoor experience to living here. While you enjoy tranquility and peace at home, downtown New Port Richey with its new restaurants, shops and nightlife is only a couple of miles away by car or golf cart. Don't miss out on the beauty and convenience of this maintenance-free community and this stunning upgraded townhome. Make it your Next Home!
