2260 17TH ST W Palmetto, FL 34221

The versatility and adaptability of this 2 bedroom + den/office, 2 bath ranch is what makes this home so special. Original floor plan included a 3rd bedroom but homeowner opened up the space making the living room open and spacious for all gatherings. Two walls can easily convert it back to a 3 bedroom if desired. This American classic was built in 1981 (effective year built 1999) with block, stucco and fieldstone. The internal living space measures in at 1729 sq.ft with an open floor plan that is synonymous with laid back living. The property is more than one acre and has gated boat parking and a large out building/shed complete with a John Deere riding lawn mower. The front court yard will lead you into a spacious foyer that has unobstructed views to the back yard. You can step down into the living room with French doors and go directly outside. The open kitchen design is mainly dominated by the sprawling breakfast bar and massive great room. A floor to ceiling fireplace gives the great room a rustic flair and is a dramatic feature in the layout. The kitchen evokes vintage style with laminate counters but the appliances have been replaced with upmarket stainless steel. Cabinets are plenty and the work triangle makes this kitchen easy to navigate. One of the 2 bathrooms have been totally updated while the second one has some partial upgrades. Laundry is a separate room with w/d hookup, storage cabinets and access to the attic. The back yard space will amaze and thrill. Nothing makes lingering outdoors, (no matter how much the temperature drops), more enticing that a crackling fire. An outdoor fireplace is tucked into the far end of the rambling screened porch that could easily accommodate a conversation area, beverage area and alfresco dining for a large number of guests. Zoning is horse friendly and the GIANT back yard is fully fenced for your four legged friends. Boat available for purchase upon a separate agreement. Home is minutes from the water where fishing and relaxing on the beach are favorite pastimes. Top outdoor attractions include Emerson Point Preserve, Felts Audubon Preserve and the Regatta Pointe Marina. Shopping, eclectic dining and cultural actives make this an ideal location. Commuters dream; close to 275 and I75. GIVE THIS HOME A NEW LEASE ON LIFE, ADD SOME MODERN RENOVATIONS AND REAP THE BENEFITS.
