COVID-19 giving you cabin fever? Temple Terrace is an oasis with huge oak tree shaded streets, large front yards, and friendly neighbors who look out for each other. Sit on your front porch to see people riding bicycles, jogging, walking their dogs, or even catching up using social distancing. Walk 2 blocks to Ben Lomond park to play or bicycle 3 min to the Recreation center to cool off in one of their 5 pools! If it’s privacy you crave, sip your favorite beverage on the large screened in back porch with a doggy door for your fur baby and power/cable connections for a tv.

This beautiful home offers several extraordinary features like a front door featured in the "Doors of Temple Terrace", a kitchen with induction cook top and convection oven; Brazilian cherry wood floors, two master bedrooms - one downstairs and one upstairs; and a laundry chute. It also includes all the typical amenities like solid wood cabinets/vanities, stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. The kitchen is open to the family room so the cook can remain part of the action. The family room has a vaulted ceiling, surround sound and wood-burning fireplace flanked by locally crafted custom cabinetry. The dining room and breakfast area open via french doors to the screened lanai - perfect for entertaining friends or a barbecue. The downstairs master has vaulted ceilings, opaque french doors to the en-suite, dual vanities, large shower with opaque window for natural light, and a custom walk-in closet designed to maximize space. Upstairs, the separate heat pump keeps guests or children comfortable. A wide hallway leads to three large bedrooms... one the second master with en-suite. All bedrooms accommodate queen size beds with large or walk-in closets (new carpet in two). Every home needs a tub so the hall bath includes a soaker tub/shower... along with a convenient laundry chute.

Structurally, since purchasing in 2005, the home has been improved with a new roof, heat pumps for downstairs & upstairs, hurricane film on double pane windows, fencing, irrigation system, covered gutters, fiber optic service for faster internet, and more. Similarly, most finishes have been upgraded like flooring, bathrooms, ceiling fans, etc.
