Welcome to 1836 North Crystal Lake Dr, Unit 44 — a townhome that feels more like a resort retreat! Discover maintenance-free living in this beautifully updated townhome located in a community that operates with the protections and conveniences of a condo association. Unlike traditional townhomes with limited coverage, this HOA includes full exterior maintenance — roof, structure, siding, lawn care, grounds, and building insurance — resulting in significantly lower homeowner insurance costs and eliminating major surprise expenses. The reduced insurance burden often offsets a large portion of the HOA fee, making the true monthly cost comparable to Lakeland townhomes with HOAs in the $200–$250 range, but with far more coverage and value. Step inside to a bright, comfortable layout featuring a welcoming living space, spacious bedrooms, and practical updates throughout. Natural light, clean finishes, and an efficient floor plan make this home feel warm and inviting. The kitchen offers generous counter space and storage, and the adjoining dining and living areas create an easy flow for everyday living or entertaining. Upstairs bedrooms provide privacy, comfort, and flexible use options for guests, a home office, or a growing family. The community offers a peaceful, well-maintained environment supported by strong reserves and professional management. With the HOA handling nearly all exterior responsibilities — including the roof — owners enjoy predictable costs, long-term savings, and a level of convenience rarely found in fee-simple townhome setups. This makes the property a standout option for first-time buyers, downsizers, investors, or anyone seeking low-maintenance ownership with excellent long-term value. Located minutes from shopping, dining, Lake Hollingsworth, Southeastern University, parks, and major roadways, this home combines convenience with strong affordability. You’ll appreciate how easy it is to lock in predictable expenses, enjoy a worry-free lifestyle, and own in a community where the biggest maintenance tasks are already taken care of for you. If you're looking for a Lakeland property with low-maintenance living, strong financial protections, and a budget-friendly monthly cost, this home should be at the top of your list.
