Welcome to this beautifully updated move-in ready patio home nestled in the heart of Laurel Run, one of Ocala's most desired gated/guarded communities. From the moment you arrive, the thoughtful upgrades and meticulous care put into this home are evident. The heart of the home is a stunning updated kitchen designed for both function and style - featuring stainless appliances including an LG induction range, Bosch dishwasher, double oven, microwave, and a refrigerator with warranty through 2028. A gorgeous backsplash, center island, built-in coffee/serving bar, and a convenient pass-through to the living room make this space as functional as it is beautiful. A sunny breakfast nook overlooks the side patio, with a sliding door for easy outdoor access. With over 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, there is room for everyone and everything. The primary suite is generously oversized and features a spa-like bathroom with double sinks, a dedicated toilet room, and a large walk-in closet. The bedroom also includes a dedicated freestanding AC unit - because sleeping cool is non-negotiable - and it stays with the home! A versatile third flex room currently houses the laundry area and serves as an office and craft space - complete with a large built-in cabinet and shelving for exceptional storage and organization. Use it however suits your lifestyle. Flooring is equally divided between luxury vinyl plank and ceramic tile - ceramic tile runs through the living room, dining room, flex room, primary bathroom, and hallway, while luxury vinyl carries through the remaining areas. Ceiling fans are featured in most rooms throughout. A formal dining room and an abundance of storage at every turn complete the interior picture. Step outside through the living room sliders to a fantastic covered lanai with a summer kitchen - complete with a gas grill, side burner, and sink - plus an expanded screened porch, and a grassy area beyond perfect for pets or simply enjoying the outdoors. A side concrete patio, visible from the breakfast nook, adds even more outdoor living space. Major systems are solid and already done - 2020 roof, 2018 AC, and fresh exterior paint in 2024. The attached 2-car garage features an electric car charger and built-in white cabinetry that stays. Select windows are tinted for heat and glare reduction - a thoughtful touch that also creates a bird-friendly environment for the nature lovers! Laurel Run offers a lifestyle unlike any other in Ocala - come see this one for yourself!
