Florida

Welcome to TRADITIONS, an active 55+ gated community located in the heart of the state on Lake Ruby. From swimming laps in the olympic size pool, casting a line at the lake or utilizing the fitness room and scheduled classes there is plenty to do to stay in shape. If you prefer a more relaxed day, the clubhouse provides plenty of social spaces for card games or puzzles or shady spaces on the grounds for reading a book or just soaking up the Florida sunshine. The community has planned monthly activities, they even plan a yearly community cruise if that's your vibe. You barely need to leave the community to find something to do! Should you choose to venture out, Disney and the parks are nearby and you can reach either coast in less than two hours. The community is close to shopping (new Publix next door coming soon), medical facilities, Legoland and the quaint downtown area of Winter Haven with boutique shops and local restaurants. This community is truly the ultimate 55+ lifestyle. The monthly dues include: community amenities (pool, clubhouse, boat ramp), Spectrum cable and internet, lawn maintenance, common area maintenance, and exterior paining every 8 years. Now for the house: This is a Kennedy model floorplan, one of the most sought after in this community. It is a SHOW STOPPER from top to bottom and these Sellers have executed great care during their ownership. You will appreciate some of the additions they have made such as the extended rear screened porch with coolaroo shades and motorized hurricane shutter. They also extended a paver BBQ area for those who like to grill. They added overhead storage racks in the garage and if you are an angler you will appreciate the storage system for the fishing poles! They have also added a motorized screen door for the days that you want to tinker in the garage and keep the bugs out. The exterior was just painted in 2025 and is included in the monthly dues about every eight years. The lawn is manicured with professional landscape edged flower beds and best of all the grass is maintained by the HOA. Walking into the front door you get that sense of home feeling. The space is open enough for great entertaining but also offers space to spread out when needed. Ceramic tile in all the wet areas and living spaces with 5 inch baseboards and crown molding give the feeling of luxury. Recessed lighting, pendant lights as well as good window placement bring good lighting into the space. The kitchen is spectacular. 42 inch upper cabinets, quartz counters, walk in pantry and island make the space functional for the chef and easy to entertain in. There are three dining space choices, a formal living area, breakfast nook or even the breakfast bar providing plenty of seating for the guests. The living room flows perfectly from the triple sliding door onto the lanai. The wall mounted TV's do convey. The floorplan also offers a triple split bedroom plan. The primary bedroom offers its own ensuite along with custom shelving in the walk in closet. The ensuite has dual sinks, private commode room, linen closet and soaking tub. The walk in shower has no step and has nice glass doors. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms share a guest bath and the 4th bedroom has a private ensuite. You truly have to see this home to appreciate its flow, style, tidiness and all the features that make this place a HOME! If 55+ living in Florida is what you have been dreaming of, you just found it! Come make some new Traditions!
