Welcome to TRADITIONS, an active 55+ gated community located in the heart of the state on Lake Ruby. From swimming laps in the olympic size pool, casting a line at the lake, swinging a pickleball racquet or utilizing the fitness room and scheduled classes, there is plenty to do to stay in shape. If you prefer a more relaxed day, the clubhouse provides plenty of social spaces for card games, crafting, puzzles and reading a book. The community has planned monthly activities, they even plan a yearly community cruise if that's your vibe. You don't need to leave the community to find something to do, however; Disney and Universal Studios are nearby and you can reach either coast in less than two hours. The community is close to shopping (Publix coming soon), medical facilities, Legoland and the quaint downtown area of Winter Haven with boutique shops and local restaurants. This community is truly the ultimate 55+ lifestyle. The monthly dues include: community amenities, Spectrum cable and internet, lawn maintenance, common area maintenance, and exterior paining every 8 years. Now for the house: This is a Kennedy model floorplan, one of the most sought after in this community. It is a SHOW STOPPER from top to bottom and these Sellers have executed great care during their ownership. You will appreciate some of the additions they have made such as the extended rear screened lanai with Coolaroo shades and a motorized hurricane shutter. They also extended a paver BBQ area for those who like to grill. They added overhead storage racks in the garage and if you are an angler you will appreciate the storage system for the fishing poles! They have also added a motorized screen door for the days that you want to tinker in the garage and keep the bugs out. The exterior was just painted in 2025. The lawn is manicured with professional landscape edged flower beds and best of all the grass is maintained by the HOA. Step inside the front door to be instantly impressed with the high ceil
