Welcome to 7851 Lake James Blvd, a beautifully upgraded residence nestled within the gated 55+ Lake James community, where refined Florida living meets thoughtful design, exceptional privacy, and effortless comfort. Built by Ernie White Construction, this distinctive home has been enhanced with an impressive collection of custom features and modern upgrades.
Inside, upgraded flooring flows throughout the home, complemented by an expanded, beautifully designed kitchen featuring a gas range. Elegant wainscoting adds timeless character to the dining area, while the versatile office offers something truly special: a custom-built queen Murphy bed, cabinetry, L-shaped desk, and closet. This flexible space provides an ideal third bedroom, home office, guest retreat, or multi-purpose living area.
Natural light and thoughtful improvements continue throughout the home. Solar tubes brighten the primary suite and laundry room, while window film, electronic retractable lanai sunshades, upgraded insulation, HVAC UV lights, and an updated electrical panel with whole-home surge protection enhance comfort and peace of mind. Newer energy-efficient shades and blinds throughout the home include blackout shades in the primary and guest bedrooms.
Step outside and discover a private nature retreat. The beautifully landscaped back and side yard overlooks mature cedar and oak trees and a year-round pond that attracts a wonderful variety of birdlife. The front of the home offers serene views of swaying palms and lush landscaping. The expansive screened lanai features electronic sunshades and sealed pavers, creating an inviting setting for morning coffee, quiet afternoons, or entertaining. A screened two-bay garage, painted garage floor, and professionally installed storage closets add exceptional functionality.
Residents of Lake James enjoy a well-rounded HOA package that includes lawn mowing and edging, yard pest and fertilizer treatments, 1-gig internet and TV, and maintenance of the community's common areas—including walkways, heated pool, clubhouse, gates and fencing, roads, sewer, ponds, and landscaped greenspace.
With its rare combination of privacy, custom upgrades, flexible living space, beautiful natural surroundings, and resort-style community amenities, 7851 Lake James Blvd offers an elevated and exceptionally comfortable Florida lifestyle in a gated 55+ community.
