Imagine coming home to a place where tranquility meets convenience—where the biggest decision of your day is whether to enjoy your morning coffee on the oversized back lanai with no rear neighbors, or pack up for a day at the beach, just a short 10-minute drive away. Welcome to 10438 Waterford Ave, a beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled in the heart of Englewood East. From the moment you step inside, you'll notice the care and quality woven into every detail. Fresh luxury vinyl flooring flows throughout the entire home, complemented by deluxe 5-inch baseboards—and yes, there is no carpet anywhere. The space is light, bright, and thoughtfully designed, offering two separate living areas that give you the flexibility to unwind, entertain, or simply spread out and make yourself at home. This home has been lovingly updated with peace of mind in mind. A new roof in 2023, a new A/C with ductwork installed in 2022, a new water heater in 2023, and newer washer/dryer machines means you can move right in and start enjoying the coastal lifestyle without a single worry. Sliding doors invite natural light to pour in and lead you to the true heart of the home: the oversized back lanai. Here, you'll find yourself relaxing to the soundtrack of nature, with serene wooded views overlooking a vacant lot that offers a rare sense of privacy. It's the perfect spot to rinse off after a day in the sun, host evening gatherings, or simply soak in the peaceful surroundings. Whether it’s shelling along the shore, boating on the Gulf, or catching a legendary Florida sunset, you’re close enough to make every day feel like a vacation. Practical perks abound, too. There’s no HOA to answer to, giving you the freedom to truly live on your terms. An extra lot, which is under similar ownership, sits alongside the home, offering added space, privacy, and potential. The 1-car attached garage and large outdoor shed provide plenty of room for your vehicle, beach toys, and everything in between. Come see for yourself why life here feels a little slower, a little sunnier, and just a short drive from everything you love.
