This luxury 2/2 villa (established Dec. ‘22) is receiving excellent reviews and we'd love you to welcome you and experience The Villages for yourself! The open floor plan provides so much living space, inside and out. This villa offers a very private surround stucco wall so you can sit outside and relax in the screened in birdcage patio with a view of the trees, birds and beautifully landscaped gardens or relax in the Florida room while you take in the garden views but in the comfort of A/C. This house is just a few minutes away from Coconut Cove Recreation Center (Family Pool) where you can enjoy the beautiful pool and stay cool!
After 6 years in the northern part of The Villages we decided to sell and buy a new vacation rental home closer to the center or the "heart" of TV where we're much closer to restaurants, bars and the live entertainment of Lake Sumter Landing. Those who have rented from us in the past know that we are great hosts. We go above and beyond in making sure our home is spotless and that our guests have everything they need to make their stay a time of rest and relaxation.
This cozy villa caught our eye with its beautiful butterfly garden and side patio with painted concrete walkway which continues to wrap around the back where you can sit out and lounge in the comfort of a fully screened-in oversized "birdcage". Enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning while you take in the surrounding gardens, watch butterflies, listen to birds chirping and even see the odd squirrel scavenging for a nut. The garden is lit up at night and you can gaze up at the beautiful stars and night's sky without worrying about the bugs! There's even a little enclosed grassy area for your little fur baby if you happen to bring him/her along!
There's no GRAY in this bright and sunny Florida home! This brick and stucco home features warm browns, copper and neutral ochre paint colors accented with pictures and decor in tranquil blues and teal greens. Hardy engineered hardwood floors provide warmth throughout the entire home. There is no carpet other than area rugs. The living room has a large 70" 4K TV with Roku and Hulu live streaming. Our renters have commented that they'll have a hard time going home to their old TV! The book shelf is stocked with a large collection of books, both our's and those of previous guests as well as few board games and puzzles.
The Master suite features sliding glass doors leading out to the Florida room. There's a walk-in closet with shelves and a chest of drawers. The furniture is made of solid wood, tongue and groove drawers in the nightstands and dressers and the queen sized bed has a brand new Novaform 14" ComfortGrande Plus Gel Memory Foam Mattress. We supply luxury high thread count 100% cotton sheets, cotton blanket and quilt coverlet. We also provide warmer quilts for the winter months. The master bathroom contains, under counter sink and granite countertops, tiled floors, a Bathfitter style non-slip and walk-in shower stall with seamless glass doors and a solar tube for extra lighting.
The 2nd Bedroom has built in cabinets and a desk along with a built-in Murphy bed so you have the option of turning this room into a home office space or den. This queen sized mattress is also very comfortable with Sealy Posturepedic pillow top mattress. The guest bathroom has a comfy sloped back oval tub, granite counter tops with under counter sink and solar tube for extra lighting. It is not directly adjoined to the bedroom so guests do not have to pass through the bedroom to get to the guest bathroom however, you do have the option of a pocket door that closes off both the bathroom and the 2nd bedroom for added privacy if desired.
Theres' a tankless hot water system for long hot showers, a filtered in-fridge water dispenser and ice maker for plenty of ice in the freezer. There's a brand new washer and dryer is located in the garage. We love to cook at home so the kitchen is fully stocked with plenty of glassware, serving ware, lots of bake ware, heavy duty stainless steel pans, an array of utensils, knives, some small appliances - blender, hot-pot, Kitchenaid stand mixer, an electric griddle, a slow cooker, a toaster, a 14-cup Cuisinart coffee maker as well as a one-cup Keurig coffee maker.
Don't worry, if cooking is not your forté there are plenty of restaurants in the area! Havana Country Club has great fried chicken on Sundays, and is ranked one of the best restaurants in The Villages. Red Sauce makes great mussels, the sauce is amazing! Our latest discovery is Mezza Luna at nearby Colony Plaza. Beautiful and elegant decor, large serving sizes and affordable pricing! And did we mention that we're just a short 5 minute golf cart ride to Lake Sumter Landing where you can enjoy an array of local restaurants with indoor/outdoor dining, live music, entertainment, markets and plenty of shopping.
This cozy villa with all its amenities is located in the Mallory champion golf course area. There are multiple adult pools nearby and the closest family pool is Coconut Cove Recreation Center and O'dell Recreation Center, about 5 mins aways. Colony Cottage Pool and Rec. Center offers a great place to workout and swim some laps, take a class or just sit and read a book while taking in the beautiful decor and luxury seating. This is also the closest RC for picking up guest passes.
We have a Yamaha gas golf cart that's included with your rental fees. For additional fees we can add a Yamaha gas 4-seat golf cart.
This home has everything you're looking for in a vacation rental, just unpack your suitcase and enjoy all that The Villages, and this home, has to offer!
