Do you enjoy boating? Kayaking? Fishing? This home is only 1/2 mile to Phillippi Estate Park! Less than one mile to the Phillippi Harbor Club. Less than two miles to Siesta Key Beach. Less than 10 miles to SRQ and only 49 miles to TPA, if you have a national or international destination to reach. River Forest is a discreet neighborhood with multiple access points so you can avoid traffic when you want to and get to where you need to go. Just bring your wardrobe and your family and settle right in. This block-constructed home has been tastefully, thoughtfully and luxuriously renovated and features 3 comfortable bedrooms, 2 full baths, all new luxury vinyl flooring, and an open floor plan with terrific flow and connectivity. The kitchen features luxurious Carrera marble style quartz countertops and a full quartz backsplash; all new Café appliances and a desirable two-drawer dishwasher so you only have to use as much as you need. All cabinet doors feature soft close and notice the pullout drawer pantry shelves. Notice the spacious indoor laundry room. Plenty of room to create new storage in the style you would like. Note the quality shaker-style panel doors throughout with new hardware, including magnetic door stops. Notice too the new recessed lighting throughout. All tastefully done, and so practical too. With a nearly new roof (2022), new hurricane-rated impact windows (2024), new lighting inside and out, a reconfigured new laundry room, the addition of two enclosed garages (2025), you can be so comfortable here. The whole house was replumbed and re-piped in 2006. To the rear is a patio and room for a pool. The fully fenced backyard means your dog has somewhere to hang out in between walking you around the neighborhood or playing fetch at the park. The community of River Forest has a Neighborhood Association, which is a civic association, to maintain the park, the pond, the entrance and the day slip. Annual fee of $150 is optional to owners. Be comfortable and be happy.
