Welcome to your new home in the beautiful community of Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club, perfectly situated on the 13th hole of the South Course with scenic views of oaks and lush green fairways. This thoughtfully designed home features a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and an adjacent walk-in pantry with a convenient organizer system. A formal dining room with a built-in display nook opens to an expansive living area perfect for entertaining. The spacious primary suite includes an expanded sitting area and sliding glass doors that lead to an extra-large enclosed Florida room—ideal for enjoying the peaceful golf course setting year-round. A private office or optional third bedroom provides flexibility for guests or working from home. Additional features include hardwood oak flooring, dramatic coffered ceilings, 8-foot interior doors throughout, and beautiful architectural details. The home also offers a brick-paved driveway and walkway. Residents of this 24-hour guard-gated community enjoy access to two 18-hole championship golf courses, a restaurant, community park, and pickleball courts. Optional memberships are available for additional amenities including a fitness club, junior Olympic pool, and clay tennis courts. All for a low quarterly HOA and no CDD fee. Located in the rolling hills of Pasco County, the community is approximately 35 minutes north of Tampa and just minutes from shopping, dining, and entertainment at The Shops at Wiregrass and Tampa Premium Outlets, along with nearby hospitals, theaters, and everyday conveniences. This home has been thoughtfully priced to reflect its current condition and to offer exceptional value for buyers seeking a golf course property in this desirable community.
