5168 NORTHRIDGE ROAD 110 Introducing your new FIRST FLOOR retreat with a PRIVATE WATER VIEW! This impeccably maintained home is nestled in one of the rare buildings within the community that doesn’t back up to another structure. Enjoy serene, unobstructed views from the covered, screened-in patio, which faces west, offering you stunning sunsets and delightful sights of ducks and birds playing in the pond. Convenience is key with this location, as it’s just a few steps away from the community’s secondary, quieter pool. Inside, you’ll find elegant upgrades such as real hardwood oak flooring throughout the main living areas, granite countertops in the kitchen, and upgraded bathroom counters as well. New HVAC system was installed in 2021, and had been regularly serviced twice a year, along with a new water heater. The kitchen boasts recessed LED lighting, and reverse osmosis water purification system. One of the standout features of this floor plan is the dedicated laundry room off the kitchen, offering extra storage space and keeping the laundry area out of sight. Additionally, a convenient storage unit right outside the front door provides ample room for bikes and beach gear. The beautiful gated community of Serenade on Palmer Ranch is ideally situated within walking distance of Publix and just 5 miles from Siesta Key Beach. The communities well kept amenities include two stunning pools, a tennis court, a fitness center, and a spacious clubhouse.
