Property Description

Rare Under-$200K Move-In-Ready Villa!! The Best Lot in Melwood Oaks. Opportunity knocks in the quiet, maintenance-free community of Melwood Oaks, and this one checks every box. Tucked at the very end of the community, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa enjoys something you simply can't buy elsewhere here: zero drive-by traffic and no neighbor in front! Just privacy, peace, and quiet on one of the most coveted lots in the neighborhood. Move-in ready and priced under $200,000, this home has been freshly painted and had the carpets professionally cleaned right before hitting the market, so all that's left to do is unpack. Inside, you'll find a comfortable, light-filled layout, with a 2020 water heater already taken care of for you. Step out to your screened-in lanai and enjoy a fully fenced backyard, a private outdoor space perfect for morning coffee, pets, or container gardening. A one-car garage plus additional parking means room for guests and extra vehicles. Best of all, this villa sits high and dr, it's elevated, not in a flood zone, and did not flood during the recent hurricanes, offering real peace of mind. Even better, exterior maintenance is included, and the association installed a new roof in 2022/23, so the big-ticket items are handled. Residents enjoy a community pool, and the location can't be beat, with quick, easy access to both St. Petersburg and Tampa, you're never far from beaches, dining, shopping, and the airport. Affordable, low-maintenance, flood-zone-free, and tucked into the best position in the community. Homes like this are genuinely hard to find at this price. Don't wait.
