Welcome home to your island paradise, privately tucked away on Picciola Island in Fruitland Park; surrounded by Lake Griffin and all that Florida nature has to offer.

This freshly painted, charming single story modern home with no HOA has been tastefully updated with laminate wood floors throughout, a brand new roof, new Carrier HVAC system, new fans throughout and an updated kitchen with newer stainless steel appliances, Silestone counter tops and upgraded cabinets and hardware.

The formal living room is immediately to the right of the front door over looking the front yard through big picture windows letting in plenty of natural light. Upgraded French doors in the family room lead to the screened back porch and onto a sparkling screened pool featuring an in-water built in table and sitting area; your perfect refreshing oasis to escape to after a long day while you enjoy your favorite libation.
