About 6914 Shimmering Dr

Under contract-accepting backup offers. “Knock Knock…Who’s There?” It’s your soon to be neighbors welcoming you to this charming, "cute as a button" Community conveniently located in South Lakeland within approximately 15 minutes of Downtown Lakeland, 45 minutes or less of the major points in Tampa, 50 mins or less to Disney’s Magic Kingdom, and gorgeous Beaches within about an hour. Upon arriving at the Security Gates of Twin Lakes at Christina, you felt a sense of safekeeping knowing that a barrier existed to help prevent access by parties with unfavorable intentions, along with those irritating and unwanted solicitations! Driving on towards your new Home, the Upkeep and Pride in Ownership throughout this Maintenance-Free Community was self-evident. YES; I said Maintenance-Free being your Lawn Care is included with your affordable $160.00 Monthly HOA Maintenance Fee, so no need to push that mower during those blazing hot August days any longer! You also appreciated that Homeowners actually waved (what a concept right!) as you drove past witnessing them actively utilizing the sidewalks spanning throughout the Community… maybe on their way to the Community Pool conveniently positioned at the front of Neighborhood. Pulling up to your new home, you adored the picturesque Curb Appeal the property exhibited with its New(er) Roof (2022), Fresh Exterior Paint, and Tasteful Landscaping. Once inside, you loved being greeted with NO CARPET and a gorgeous mixture of Luxury Vinyl Plank & Tile Flooring which spanned throughout this well-kept 3 Bedroom with Den/Office area (could easily become a 4th Bedroom with a simple door addition), 2 Full Bathroom, 1951 sq ft (heated/cooled), 2-Car Garage, Block home. The property’s split & semi-open floor plan is practically designed, offering enough privacy to keep one sane, while also being an ideal layout for entertaining friends and family within its walls and beyond. Both a Formal Dining Space and Dinette Space off the Kitchen offer plenty of seating, while the Kitchen offers an abundance of Cabinetry, Countertop Space, and Stainless-Steel Appliances. The Vaulted Ceilings throughout the living areas brought a sense of airy and openness, while the separate Laundry Room located off the kitchen only added to your future home’s overall appeal. When entering the Master Bedroom Suite, you felt a sense of relief knowing that there was ample space for your King-Sized Bed, Bulky Dressers & Nightstands. The Master Ensuite Full Bathroom featuring Dual Sinks, Separate Garden Tub, Shower Stall, separate Commode Space, and Walk-In Closet were simply icing on the cake. Upon stepping out of either the Sliding Glass Doors off the Living Room, or the convenient side access door off of the Master Bedroom onto the Enlarged & Extended, Fully-Screened Rear Patio Space your jaw hit the floor. You witnessed first-hand the private “Million Dollar View” this Property provides encapsulating Water, a stylish Black Metal Fully-Fenced Backyard, soothing & tranquil “Zen-like” Water Feature/Fountain, Outdoor Patio Space perfect for grilling, and absolutely gorgeous Landscaped Beds. You then thought “WOW, I can definitely see myself lounging in this backyard space, sipping a cool beverage, watching family and friends enjoy our incredible new home. It was at this point, things “Just Felt Like Home”…and you know how the story ended (or rather began)...“You Lived Happily Ever After…”!!!
