Property Description
Experience a life of quiet luxury in the beautiful Villages of Avalon! This magnificent 2 story Wisteria A model was crafted by DR Horton in 2012 and has been transformed into an exquisite private retreat. Modern technological upgrades include wiring for a whole-house generator and a security system with cameras; a new roof will also be installed before closing. Plus, a new AC unit was installed in 2023 with a built-in blue light purifier, extra filter, and a 10 year warranty. Inside, you'll discover chic and stylish details, such as large barn doors and crown molding on the ground floor, designer light fixtures and recessed lighting, luxury vinyl plank flooring in all four bedrooms, and granite counters throughout. Flexible living space in the form of living & dining rooms to the left of the staircase just off the foyer provides ample room for entertaining your nearest and dearest, while the large family family room with its shiplap accent wall is the ideal spot for game night or binge-watching your fave shows. The bright, gleaming eat-in kitchen is perfect for the inspired home chef with its stainless steel appliances, sleek tile backsplash, and stone-accented breakfast bar. Enjoy your morning brew of choice in the eating nook overlooking the sliding glass doors that lead to the pool area and backyard. There's even a half bathroom downstairs for everyone's convenience. Steps leading to the second level are real wood; the wainscoting that lines the staircase continues up into the hall and sizable loft space. The massive primary bedroom awaits here, and it has room for a sitting area or a small private office. We're not saying that you'll find a faun named Mr. Tumnus next to a lamppost in the back of the enormous walk-in closet, but we're not not saying it either. Luxuriate in the spa-like ambience of the ensuite primary bath with its beautiful dual sink vanity, large garden tub, and a separate shower. The remaining three expansive guest bedrooms occupy the other side of the top floor; they share a full guest bathroom. The laundry closet is also located upstairs with the most darling wood counter and shelf for storage. When it's time for fun in the Florida sun, you don't have to go further than your own backyard to enjoy your personal oasis! The screen enclosed lanai features a gorgeous stone bar and pavers that extend out to the patio and pool deck. Lounge beneath the pergola and bask in the flickering light of the fire pit (s'mores, anyone?). And don't forget your sunscreen before you hit the sparkling water of the saltwater pool, complete with waterfall and PebbleTec finish. The backyard is completely enclosed with vinyl for your privacy and safety; metal fencing on either side of the yard provides a demarcation zone that you could use as small pet runs. Avalon has low monthly HOA fees, and you'll have access to amenities like the clubhouse, community pools, and nature trails. It's close to plenty of shopping and dining options, as well as Veterans Memorial and Anderson Snow Parks. Take advantage of your proximity to the Adventure Coast - discover mermaids and paddle down the river at Weeki Wachee Springs State Park, which is a short drive west. You'll also be minutes away from the Suncoast Parkway for easy access to Tampa, too. Everyday is a vacation when you're living resort-style in your own home! Reach out to us today to schedule your private tour of this stunning residence!

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
