House in Alva, FL 33920

Hampton Lakes, 16072 Palmetto Prairie Dr

This one's hard to beat. Built in 2021, but the sellers have kept it in better shape than most new construction you'll walk through — diagonal tile floors, an open kitchen with granite counters and a big island, and a saltwater pool out back with a waterfall that overlooks the lake. Floor plan is the split-bedroom layout people ask for: 3 bedrooms, a den you can use as an office or guest room, 2 full baths. The primary suite has a dual-sink vanity and a walk-in shower with plenty of room. A few things worth pointing out that you won't see on most listings at this price point — UV light system built into the HVAC, impact windows and doors throughout, and solar panels already installed. Someone put real money into this house after they bought it. Out back, the lanai sits southeast facing, so you get sun on the pool most of the day. Saltwater, heated, self-cleaning — low maintenance, high payoff. Hampton Lakes has a clubhouse, community pool, gym, tennis and pickleball courts, bocce — the kind of amenities that actually get used. Gated community, paved drive, 2-car garage.
