THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS awaits in this beautifully upgraded 3-bedroom, 2-bath “Regina” model in Citrus Hills, complete with coveted membership to Citrus Hills Golf & Country Club. Ideally located just outside Terra Vista, this nearly new home offers easy access to all community amenities—without the premium of living inside Terra Vista. Designed to impress today’s discerning buyer, this home features luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring, crown moulding, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a generous pantry, and upper cabinet crown toppers. The energy-efficient design is complemented by charming exterior stone accents and high-impact, thermal windows. Enter through a leaded glass front door into a light-filled open concept layout with current neutral tones—an inviting canvas ready for your personal touch. The split floor plan ensures privacy, placing the primary suite on one side and two additional bedrooms and a full bath on the other. The spacious laundry room includes a utility sink, storage, and space for a second fridge or freezer. (Note: the current laundry room fridge from 2024 will be moved to the kitchen and is included with the sale. Kitchen fridge does NOT convey, but is negotiable.) Enjoy Florida living in the landscaped backyard featuring a covered lanai, paver patio, and firepit—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. An added bonus: the backyard shed offering extra storage. Take in golf course views of the Meadows across the street, and reach the Pro Shop and Tiki Bar by golf cart. The Activity Center—with pool, pickleball, and more—is even closer. Located just 15 minutes from the Gulf, safe from storm surge, and perched 104 ft above sea level, this home requires no flood insurance. Enjoy peace of mind with its hurricane-ready construction, including an anchored roof, reinforced garage door, and impact-resistant features. Experience modern comfort, world-class amenities, and the unmatched charm of Citrus Hills living in Florida’s Nature Coast.
