About this home

12518 LAKE JOVITA BOULEVARD

Golf course views, a private pool, and the gated Lake Jovita setting make this 3 bedroom, 3 bath home an inviting lease opportunity in one of Dade City’s most desirable communities. Located along the community’s main drive, the home features a 2025 roof, bonus room, 2 car garage, dedicated golf cart garage, and a flexible floor plan designed for comfortable Florida living. Tropical landscaping, a paver driveway, and a generous covered entryway create a welcoming arrival before the home opens into multiple living areas with crown molding, plantation shutters, and soaring decorative ceilings. The formal living room is filled with natural light and opens to the lanai through sliding glass doors, while the nearby formal dining room gives you a defined space for dinners, holidays, or hosting guests. The kitchen sits at the center of the home with a spacious layout, central island with breakfast bar seating, pantry storage, and a passthrough to the living room with decorative cabinetry. A cozy dinette with a large picture window overlooks the pool, keeping the view close during meals and quiet mornings at home. Just beyond the kitchen, the family room creates another comfortable place to relax with slider access to the lanai, an entertainment center nook, and a striking double-sided fireplace shared with the bonus room. The bonus room enjoys its own pool views, sits near a full bathroom, and works well as a home office, guest space, fitness area, media room, or quiet retreat. Privately placed near the front of the home, the primary suite includes plush carpeting, direct pool access, two walk-in closets, and an expansive ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, separate soaking tub, and private water closet.

Outdoor living is a major highlight, with a screened lanai overlooking the golf course and surrounding the sparkling pool. A covered area with a built-in grill and bar creates an easy place for alfresco dining, while the pool deck has room for lounging, sun-soaked afternoons, and relaxing at home with fairway views in the background.

Value check

Is the price right?

The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
