Positioned in a prime central location near both historic St. Andrews and downtown Panama City, this updated home offers a bright and open interior designed to maximize every inch of living space. The home features surprisingly large room proportions in the open concept kitchen and living room and in the bedroom complete with a walk-in closet. This creates a comfortable atmosphere that lives much larger than its footprint. Comprehensive recent upgrades enhance the property, including new vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, energy-efficient windows, window treatments, and stylish updated light fixtures and ceiling fans. The modern kitchen serves as a functional centerpiece, equipped with granite countertops, a breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, and premium soft-close cabinetry. The home's layout is complemented by practical luxuries such as a spacious walk-in closet, linen storage area in the bathroom, and a tankless water heater for on-demand efficiency. Ready for immediate move-in, the residence also includes a recently serviced HVAC system and a modern front-load washer and dryer. Outside, the property provides a sense of seclusion on an oversized 50' x 90' lot, which is fully enclosed by a privacy fence. The addition of an extra-large gate across the driveway allows for a completely private perimeter for both the front and rear of the home. This home has no HOA fees to worry about and offers the option of both long-term and short-term rental opportunities. The property is conveniently situated near popular local dining and retail areas and is just one mile from Gulf Coast Hospital or Publix. With easy access to Tyndall Air Force Base, as well as only about a fifteen-minute drive to the white sandy beaches of Panama City Beach, this home offers an exceptional blend of modern quality and convenience.
