Welcome home to Ruby Lake, an established gated neighborhood of only 214 executive homes nestled between beautiful Lake Ruby and Lake Bess in Winter Haven. Known for its peaceful setting and pride of ownership, this sought after community captures the charm of lake life. This beautifully renovated pool home has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom and offers incredible features rarely found in this price point, including a full, private entry in-law suite and fully paid solar panels for remarkable low energy costs. Sitting on a pristine quarter acre lot, several tall palm trees and mature landscaping welcome your arrival. Once inside, you have a clear view of the sparkling pool and lush green yard beyond the double sliding glass doors, connecting indoor-outdoor living. Durable easily maintained laminate flooring flows throughout most of the home, with upgraded LVP in the in-law suite and neutral porcelain tiles at the entry and kitchen. Entirely carpet free for clean, easy living. Privately positioned at the front of the home, the primary suite serves as a quiet retreat tucked away from the main living area. The fully renovated ensuite bathroom is striking, featuring designer finishes throughout - including bohemian-inspired tile flooring, dramatic floor to ceiling shower tile, a custom shower bench and niches, matte black fixtures and a stunning arched window that fills the space with natural light. Dual vanities, a dedicated vanity space and additional overhead storage complete the bathroom. The standout feature of this home is the versatile in-law wing. With its own private entrance and driveway, spacious bedroom, full bath, personal living room with lanai access, and a full kitchen with all appliances included, this private suite offers endless possibilities. It's ideal for extended guests, multigenerational living, or even a private retreat. The main kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring quartzite countertops and tiled backsplash, freshly painted wood cabinetry, farm sink, stainless steel appliances and a deep built-in pantry with charming barn door access. A breakfast bar under custom pendant lights provides casual seating, while the sunny breakfast nook with built-in bench seating offers a relaxed spot to start the day. Sliders from the master, living, and family room all open to the screened lanai, showcasing beautiful pool views. The saltwater pool is surrounded by plenty extra deck space for both alfresco dining and pool side sunbathing. Outdoors, the fully fenced yard is over a quarter acre and has room to relax, play or garden. The home backs up to the neighborhood retention space, providing added privacy with no rear neighbors. Nestled in Ruby Lake, a peaceful and well-established neighborhood with no CDD and a low HOA, residents enjoy proximity to the area's beautiful lakes while remaining centrally located between Tampa and Orlando's shopping, dining and world-class attractions. Experience the comfort, flexibility and Florida lifestyle this exceptional home has to offer. Welcome home!
