1198 W CITRUS SPRINGS BOULEVARD Welcome home to this beautiful Citrus Springs home, where curb appeal meets comfort, and Florida living radiates. This custom-built home was thoughtfully designed with distinctive features and architectural details that set it apart from neighboring properties, offering a level of character and craftsmanship rarely found. From the moment you arrive, the home’s welcoming pavered driveway, exterior façade, and screened-in front porch give you a sense of ease, calm, and a welcoming sense of home. Step inside and the real magic begins. Your eyes are immediately drawn through the living space to an expansive lanai overlooking a peaceful backdrop, offering privacy and a true indoor-outdoor connection. As you move through the home, you’ll appreciate the elegant tray ceilings and the recently updated Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring, adding warmth and durability throughout the main living areas. The home has been thoughtfully maintained with major updates already completed, including a new roof in 2021 and HVAC replacement in 2020. The cherry on top, fully paid-off solar panels. Because really… who wouldn’t want an electric bill hovering around $30-$40 a month? Outdoor living is just as impressive, featuring an outdoor kitchen with a Blackstone grill that makes entertaining effortless—perfect for weekend cookouts or relaxed family dinners on a cool Florida afternoon. The fully fenced backyard offers privacy and a safe space for your furry friends to roam, while the Rain Bird sprinkler system keeps the lawn lush and vibrant year-round.
