A luxurious 3-bed, 3-bath home with a 3-car garage in the gated Laurel Wood community of Ocala sold last week for $628,010 in a cash deal.The 3,490-square-foot pool home located at 2131 SE 25th Street was listed on July 14 for $639,900, and it was under contract two days later. Jim Gallaway of Roberts Real Estate was the listing agent, while Maria Griffin of Busch Realty represented the buyer. The home was built in 2001 and had just one owner before the sale.
The listing referenced the “beautifully manicured half-acre lot” and promised it would “please the most discerning eye.”
An enormous combined formal living and dining room with a view and access to the pool greets you when entering the home through the front door.
The large eat-in kitchen overlooks a generous family room inside and large enclosed pool area outside.
The expansive master suite includes tray ceiling, fireplace between bedroom and bath, separate lavatory, and two large walk-in closets.
A separate and functional den, currently without a closet, could be transformed into a fourth bedroom if desired.
