Classic mid-century modern ranch home with in-ground pool & lush tropical landscaping. One of the last original homes in this amazing neighborhood. Flat roof was redone last year, pitched roof is 19 years old but seller is offering $10,000 at closing to help defer replacement costs. This home has a newer kitchen, new heavy-duty AC system, terrazzo floors throughout, a wonderful white brick decorative fireplace, a lovely tiled pool and tropical front & rear yards. The home sits on a beautiful tree-lined street in a very desirable enclave full of mid-century homes. Orchid Drive is quiet, private, has very little traffic, yet is only minutes to shops, restaurants, and the turnpike. If you are looking for an opportunity to renovate a true classic Florida mid-century pool home, this is it.
