Charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with peaceful pond views in the heart of Mandarin. The spacious primary suite is upstairs with vinyl plank flooring, a large walk-in closet, and a private bathroom with walk-in shower. Just outside is a versatile loft—ideal for a home office, workout space, or cozy sitting area. The loft's wood-beamed ceiling adds warmth and is visible from the light-filled eat-in kitchen below. Downstairs features tile flooring (updated in 2015), a sunken living room with a dramatic stone fireplace, and a second bedroom with sliding doors leading to the backyard and pond. The kitchen includes ample storage, a pantry closet, and another sliding door for outdoor access. A full guest bath is located off the kitchen, and the laundry room is just off the garage. Roof replaced in April 2017; water heater replaced November 2024. Deck offers pond views but is sold as-is—use caution, as it may not be safe for regular use. Coquina stone accents add charm throughout.
