About this home

The sellers are willing to replace the existing roof prior to closing! Rare opportunity to own a lakefront home in Lake James, a sought-after gated 55+ community in North Lakeland where every residence was crafted by award winning Ernie White Construction. Ideally located just two homes from the clubhouse and community pool, this property offers exceptional convenience along with a beautiful lakefront setting. The popular Gibson model features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a spacious den, perfect for a home office, hobby room, or flexible guest space. The bright, open-concept floor plan flows into a well-appointed kitchen featuring maple cabinetry, granite countertops, and a large center island that provides plenty of workspace and a natural gathering place for family and friends. Triple sliding glass doors open to a large patio overlooking Lake James, creating a peaceful setting to enjoy morning coffee, entertain guests, or simply relax and take in the water views. The Lake James HOA provides lawn maintenance, Wi-Fi, and cable, allowing you to enjoy a convenient, low-maintenance lifestyle. Lakefront living, quality Ernie White construction, desirable community amenities, and the opportunity for a new roof prior to closing make this a home well worth seeing. Schedule your private showing and discover the lifestyle Lake James has to offer.
