7425 MELOGOLD CIRCLE

Single-story 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a den on a 0.40-acre corner lot overlooking the 16th tee of The Groves Golf and Country Club, a gated 55+ golf community in Land O’ Lakes, FL. This 2,336 sq ft split-bedroom plan, built in 2005, includes a 3-car garage, a 2023 roof, a 2016 A/C, and Flood Zone X. Because the home sits behind the tee box, play moves away from the house, and the cart path runs along the far side of the fairway. A covered entry with twin columns and post lanterns leads to leaded-glass double doors under an arched transom. Inside, the tiled foyer opens to a formal dining room with a chandelier and an arched shuttered window, and to a den with French doors that works as a home office, hobby room, or guest space. Tray ceilings, crown molding, recessed lighting, and plantation shutters run through the main living areas. The kitchen features Corian solid-surface countertops, oak cabinetry, a diagonal tile backsplash, white appliances, and a breakfast bar with a double sink. It opens to a tiled breakfast nook and a family room with a built-in entertainment niche and sliding glass doors to the lanai, so the golf course view carries through the back of the house. The primary suite sits on its own side of the home with sliding-door lanai access, a ceiling fan, and golf course views. The primary bath includes two closets, a dual-sink Corian vanity, a garden tub under arched windows with plantation shutters, and a walk-in shower with a glass enclosure and handheld showerhead. On the opposite side, two guest bedrooms with ceiling fans and double closets share a full bath with a Corian vanity, a grab bar, and a tub and shower combination. An inside laundry room includes a washer, dryer, utility sink, wire shelving, and direct entry to the 3-car garage. Out back, the covered, screened lanai features a stamped concrete overlay floor, two ceiling fans, room for both dining and lounge seating, and multiple sets of sliding glass doors into the living room, family room, breakfast nook, and primary suite. The corner lot adds a wide side and rear lawn with open space on two sides. HOA dues of $517 per quarter include lawn care, cable TV, internet, and access to community amenities. The Groves Golf and Country Club offers an 18-hole golf course, driving range, putting green, clubhouse with restaurant and ballroom, heated resort-style pool and spa, fitness center, library, tennis and pickleball courts, bocce, shuffleboard, a dog park, a butterfly garden, nature boardwalks, and a full calendar of clubs and social events. Lawn care is included, so time goes to tee times, pickleball, and clubhouse events instead of yard work. A Publix shopping plaza sits just outside the community gates, and SR-54 is about 6 miles south on US-41, putting the shopping, dining, and services along the SR-54 corridor within an easy drive of Land O’ Lakes’ most established 55+ golf community.
