For Sale - Active
1 Units

Tucked on a quarter-acre in a quiet Bartow neighborhood, 3983 Shay Drive offers the kind of everyday ease that feels like home from the moment you arrive. With a fresh exterior, new impact-resistant windows, and a welcoming screened front porch, this updated ranch-style retreat blends comfort, function, and space to unwind. Step inside to find engineered hardwood floors flowing throughout the main living areas, complemented by quartz countertops and newer stainless appliances that make the kitchen as beautiful as it is practical. Whether you're prepping meals, hosting guests, or simply savoring a quiet morning, the layout supports the rhythms of real life. The oversized laundry room adds convenience, while the spacious screened back porch sets the stage for relaxed evenings, weekend gatherings, or peaceful mornings listening to the breeze. With a fully fenced yard, dual 12-foot double gates, and a 50-amp outlet ready for your RV, this property delivers freedom and flexibility. Additional upgrades include a 2023 HVAC, a 2024 water softener, and newer fiberglass exterior doors. All the major systems are in place so you can simply move in and start living. Here, you’re not just buying a house. You’re stepping into a space that works as hard as you do and invites you to slow down, stretch out, and stay a while.
