One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Surrounded by the lush ambiance in the sought-after neighborhood of River Forest, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home conveys a unique charm and "Old Florida" feel from the first steps of the welcoming front porch. Some of the highlights include exposed brick walls, abundant natural light, vaulted ceilings, a spacious kitchen, and large windows and doors providing tranquil views of the resort-style pool and opulent gardens from almost every room. Designed for entertaining, there is a dining room, family room, and bonus room which could also be used as an office or den. The kitchen features oak cabinetry, dark granite countertops, a spacious island with countertop-height seating and storage, and a separate breakfast nook. The owner’s suite features an updated bathroom with a large tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, a large custom-organized walk-in closet, and access to the lanai. There are two additional bedrooms both with en-suite bathrooms and garden views from the large windows. Additional features include an oversized garage, central vacuum system and a saltwater pool with a spa. The community of River Forest includes just 27 homes and consists of a private park with walking paths, a fishing dock and a Kayak launch along the Braden River. All this in a great location close to Nathan Benderson Park, University Town Center Mall, and easy access to I-75.
