Welcome to Whispering Oaks - a gated lakefront community in Carrollwood surrounded by mature trees, peaceful water views, and the kind of natural setting that feels worlds away from the pace of the city. This beautifully maintained ground-floor 2 bedroom, 1 bath condo offers a rare sense of calm at an incredibly accessible price point. Inside, you'll find 1,157 square feet of comfortable living space featuring ceramic tile throughout the main living areas, brand new carpet in the bedrooms, in-unit laundry, and an inviting layout filled with natural light. The private fenced patio overlooks the pond and offers the perfect space for gardening, relaxing outdoors while you listen to the birds, or enjoying a front row seat to moonlit pond views. Additional updates include 2017 hurricane- impact windows, an updated shower with a freshly resurfaced tub, and a 2025 HVAC system backed by a 10-year warranty. Furnishings may be included optionally, creating a truly move-in-ready opportunity. Resort-style amenities make everyday living feel effortless, including a community pool overlooking Lake Magdalene, 24/7 fitness center, clubhouse, private boat ramp, car wash station, gated entry, assigned parking, and abundant guest parking. With direct access to the 252-acre lake, you can enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding, boating, fishing, and the relaxed waterfront lifestyle typically reserved for much higher price points. Conveniently located near Carrollwood Village, USF, major hospitals, shopping, dining, and I-275. No flood insurance required. What most would call an escape, you can call home!
