Nestled in the heart of Lake Magdalene/Carrollwood, this elegant, single story traditional home is situated in the highly desirable, established, custom-built colonial-style neighborhood of Thompson East. Thompson East is a one entrance/exit neighborhood featuring huge oak trees that canopy the streets and beautifully manicured landscaping. This rare hidden gem of a neighborhood radiates a welcoming southern charm from the very moment you drive past the elegant entry way fountain. No CDD’s and only a $600/year HOA.
The thoughtfully designed floorplan features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and an attached 2 car garage. An open floor plan with split bedrooms is masterfully designed. A custom frosted/beveled glass front door and gleaming natural wood floors greet you at the entry foyer and follow through into all the main areas of the home with tile in the bathrooms and laundry room. The Primary Retreat is on the right wing of the house, while the remaining 3 bedrooms are on the left wing. Vaulted ceilings are in the living room, dining room, family room and kitchen area. Other features of the house include energy saving double-insulated windows, sky lights in each bedroom and bathroom, and a double-sided fireplace that burns natural wood. There are plantation shutters in the primary bedroom and bedroom 2, landscape lighting in the front of the house and around the pool area, an electric heat pool pump, and LED changing color pool light. For privacy there are concrete block walls separating each property and a car parking pad opposite the garage.
The house features a new roof, new smart water heater with a mixing valve and a new variable speed pool pump. The A/C is a 16+ SEER unit, replaced in 2017 with all new ducts and R-30 blown insulation in attic. The kitchen appliances were updated in 2021 and laundry room washer and dryer in 2023. The house has a security alarm system complemented by a set of REOLINK cameras that can be viewed on your cell phone. All bedroom closets and master bedroom have custom California type closets.
Thompson East is a secluded community with moss-draped oaks and minutes away to Carrollwood and Lutz shopping, amenities, schools and services, as well as to I-275 and the Veterans Expressway. The Thompson East community is close knit with year round activities for everyone. At holidays, the community lights up with candles and all the neighbors walk around greeting each other. The house has a large front and back yard to be enjoyed by all. Dining room chandelier does not convey. All wall mounted TVs do convey.
