WELCOME TO BERKELEY FOREST -- one of Gulf Breeze's beautiful established neighborhoods, where curving streets, mature palm trees, and a landscaped divided entrance create an inviting setting from the moment you arrive. Tucked inside this desirable community sits a beautifully cared-for, single-story brick POOL HOME offering just under 2,500 square feet, four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a little over a quarter-acre of fully fenced property. Step inside and you'll immediately notice how well this home has been maintained. The semi-open floor plan creates an easy connection between the kitchen and living areas, with views extending out toward the sparkling backyard pool. Surrounded by palm trees and a privacy fence, the backyard has the feel of your own Florida retreat with plenty of space for entertaining, pets, family gatherings, or simply relaxing poolside. The pool has a BRAND-NEW LINER, and several of the kitchen appliances have also been updated, including the dishwasher, range, and refrigerator. The water heater is less than one year old. And here is an opportunity the next owner will especially appreciate: the seller has obtained quotes for a BRAND-NEW ARCHITECTURAL SHINGLE ROOF to be installed prior to closing and paid for by the seller at closing. Once under contract, the buyer will even have the opportunity to select their preferred shingle color, subject to availability and applicable HOA requirements. The seller will also close out any applicable open permits prior to closing. A new roof may also provide an additional benefit when obtaining homeowners insurance. Current homeowners insurance is reported to be in the approximately $3,000-per-year range, and flood insurance is not currently required by the seller's lender. The Berkeley Forest HOA is also attractively priced at approximately $450 per year. The home has been tenant occupied for approximately three years, and the tenants have cared for it as though it were their own. The seller is currently seeking a SEPTEMBER CLOSING to coordinate with the tenants' planned departure near the end of the month. PREAPPROVED BUYERS & APPROVED SHOWINGS ONLY, PLEASE. Up to 24 hours' notice may be needed to allow the tenants time to accommodate the showing and leave the property with their pets. If you've been searching for a four-bedroom Gulf Breeze pool home with an established neighborhood setting, a spacious fenced yard, low annual HOA dues, thoughtful updates, and the opportunity to start ownership with a BRAND-NEW ROOF, Berkeley Forest deserves a place at the top of your list. This is a home that has been genuinely cared for--and it's ready for its next chapter.
