209 S PORT ROYAL Lane BACK ON THE MARKET-AND READY FOR A NEW BUYER! The previous buyer's financing fell through through no fault of the home. Even better, the home appraised at contract price and a 4-point inspection has already been completed, giving the next buyer valuable information right from the start. NOW, ABOUT THAT VIEW! Imagine starting your mornings overlooking a peaceful pond and ending your evenings with the glow of the fountain from your covered back deck. This beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers comfortable Florida living with a flexible den/study that's perfect for an office, hobby room, or cozy retreat. The primary bedroom features its own ensuite bath, while the open kitchen and living area creates an easy, welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. BIG-TICKET UPDATES ARE ALREADY DONE, with a NEW ROOF AND NEW HVAC installed in 2025. The home also came through the recent hurricanes without impact. An inside laundry adds convenience, while the golf cart garage is a terrific bonus and may even accommodate a small vehicle-buyer to verify. An additional side parking pad gives you even more flexibility for guests, vehicles, or your Florida toys. Outside, choose your favorite place to relax: the welcoming front porch or the covered back deck overlooking the pond and fountain. Located near the community's East Gate, the home is also conveniently positioned for quick access to nearby restaurants, groceries, pharmacies, medical services, shopping, and everyday conveniences. And then there's the Caribbean Isles lifestyle! This gated, resident-owned 55+ community is both pet- and golf-cart friendly, with resort-style amenities, social activities, waterfront recreation, and plenty of opportunities to be as busy-or as relaxed-as you choose. Best of all, there is NO LOT RENT and NO CDD, with a low monthly maintenance fee of just $242. Centrally located between Tampa and Sarasota, this is an easy home to enjoy whether you're looking for a full-time Florida lifestyle or a warm-weather escape.
