Welcome to the desirable Highland Pines community in the heart of Clearwater. As you walk in, you are welcomed into the spacious family room and dining area with laminate flooring throughout and it extends into the kitchen. The kitchen has been updated and includes timeless white cabinets, tile floors, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. All bedrooms have laminate flooring and the updated bathrooms have tile for easy maintenance. You will enjoy watching the sunrise while sipping your morning coffee in the beautiful large screened patio overlooking the over-sized backyard which is completely fenced and includes a storage shed. The perfectly appointed xeriscape is like a private tropical oasis with stepping stones throughout, pond, and adorable backyard swing. In addition to all the above mentioned amenities, there is also a 2 car garage, large driveway and additional designated parking space by the street. There is NO HOA fees, flood insurance is NOT required, and it's less than 6 miles to the #1 rated, Clearwater Beach. This very low maintenance home, inside and out, makes this the perfect choice for first time home buyers, winter home, or investor looking to add a "turn-key" rental to their portfolio.
