9716 Avalon Drive

About this home

If your Florida retirement plan includes more sunshine and less money disappearing into housing costs, 9716 Avalon Drive deserves a serious look. Located in the gated 55+ community of Veranda Springs in Parrish, this nicely updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home is being offered turnkey, making it an especially attractive choice for a full-time Florida residence, seasonal snowbird getaway, or easy lock-and-leave winter home. Inside, the comfortable floor plan feels bright, welcoming and ready to enjoy. The home has been nicely updated, so instead of arriving in Florida with a renovation list, you can arrive with a suitcase and start enjoying it. One of the best bonus spaces is the Florida room with acrylic windows, giving you an additional place to relax, entertain, read, play cards or enjoy Florida's beautiful winter weather. Outside, an oversized carport provides plenty of covered parking and outdoor convenience, while the handy storage shed gives you room for beach chairs, bicycles, tools and everything else that somehow follows you into retirement. But the real story here is VALUE. Veranda Springs has become especially attractive to buyers looking for a 55+ community where monthly housing costs can remain more manageable. The community is frequently marketed for its comparatively low lot rent, helping make Florida retirement more attainable without giving up the amenities and lifestyle buyers want. And there is plenty to enjoy close to home. Veranda Springs offers an active Florida lifestyle centered around its clubhouse and recreational amenities, including a heated swimming pool, heated spa/Jacuzzi, shuffleboard, tennis, billiards, arts and crafts, cards, dances and other community activities. When you are ready to venture out, shopping, restaurants, golf and everyday conveniences are nearby, while the Gulf Coast and Anna Maria Island beaches are roughly a 30- to 45-minute drive depending on destination and traffic. Two bedrooms. Two baths. Turnkey furnishings. Updated interior. Florida room. Oversized carport. Storage. Gated 55+ community. Lower ongoing housing costs. Put it all together and 9716 Avalon Drive offers something increasingly difficult to find in Southwest Florida: a comfortable Florida lifestyle at a price that can still leave room in the retirement budget to actually enjoy Florida. Why spend more just to say you live in Florida? Come see how affordable the good life can be at Veranda Springs.
