TEAR UP THE HONEY-DO LIST!! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath block home has just come through a complete, fully permitted restoration - and it comes with a screened gunite pool on over a third of an acre. NO mandatory HOA and NO CDD. TOTAL PEACE OF MIND: NEW Roof (2026), NEW HVAC (2025) and NEW Water Heater (2025). The kitchen is all newer - white shaker cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances - and both bathrooms have been updated. NEW luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout, with fresh paint inside and out. The pool, screen enclosure and cool deck have all been restored, and a detached storage shed handles the mowers and gear. THE LIFESTYLE: Ridge Manor sits in eastern Hernando County's recreation corridor. The 41-acre Ridge Manor Community Park - ball fields, basketball, volleyball, playground, walking trail and pavilions - is about a mile away, and the Withlacoochee State Forest's Croom tract, with its trails and off-road riding, is roughly four miles out. Cortez Boulevard (SR 50) is just over a mile away, putting I-75 and the Tampa and Orlando corridors within easy reach. Eastside Elementary, D.S. Parrott Middle and Hernando High serve the community. Best of all: this address is verified USDA 100% financing eligible! Call today for your private showing.
