Property Description

Welcome to this charming, SPACIOUS, 2-bedroom, 2 full bath home with a 1-car garage in the highly desirable 55+ community of Anchorage of Lake Tarpon — a LIGHT, BRIGHT, and beautifully designed residence that would make the perfect Florida winter retreat or an ideal place to retire and enjoy the sunshine year-round. This thoughtfully designed home features an extra-large formal living and dining area, offering wonderful space for entertaining or relaxing in comfort. The SPLIT-BEDROOM floor plan ensures privacy, with a spacious primary suite on one side featuring a BRAND NEW SHOWER, while the second bedroom and full bath are located on the opposite side — perfect for guests. Just off the kitchen, you’ll find a versatile bonus room ideal for a home office, craft room, hobby space, or cozy reading nook. The backyard was fully fenced in 2019 with white vinyl fencing, creating a private outdoor space to enjoy Florida’s beautiful weather. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a NEW ROOF and gutters (2019), water heater (2020), and HVAC (2016). The sprinkler system runs on a well for efficient irrigation. Located in a NO FLOOD ZONE — and this home had no flooding — offering added security and confidence. Anchorage residents enjoy fantastic amenities including a clubhouse, large pool, game area, library, and a full calendar of social events — all with a low HOA fee of just $500 per year. The community is quiet, friendly, and beautifully maintained. A true standout feature is that JOHN CHESTNUT SR PARK is just steps away. This stunning 250-acre Pinellas County park on Lake Tarpon offers scenic walking trails, boardwalks, picnic areas, a dog park, boat ramp, and frequent wildlife sightings — including deer. Conveniently located near shopping, medical facilities, the YMCA, the Pinellas Trail, and beautiful Gulf beaches, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and nature. Don’t miss this opportunity — homes in this sought-after community do not last long!
