About this home
5496 SW 153RD STREET ROAD
No HOA. Assumable Loan. 2 Years New. That is the kind of combination buyers do not see every day. Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Marion Oaks, built just 2 years ago and move-in ready. No tired updates. No renovation headaches. No HOA breathing down your neck. Inside, you get the open-concept layout today’s buyers want, with a modern kitchen that flows directly into the dining and living areas. Whether you are hosting friends, enjoying a quiet night in, or simply wanting a home that feels open, clean, and easy to live in, this floor plan delivers. The private primary suite gives you the space to unwind, complete with an en-suite bath and generous closet space. The additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, work-from-home space, hobbies, or storage. Set in the growing Marion Oaks area, this home gives you the best of both worlds: a peaceful neighborhood setting with shopping, dining, schools, medical facilities, parks, and major roadways still within easy reach. And here is the part that makes this one especially worth a closer look: the home has an assumable loan. For the right buyer who qualifies, that could be a major advantage in today’s market. Whether you are looking for your first home, your next home, a lower-maintenance lifestyle, or a smart investment opportunity, this Marion Oaks property checks the boxes that matter: newer construction, no HOA, modern living, and a financing feature most homes simply do not provide. Homes with this combination do not sit quietly in the background. Schedule your showing and see why this one deserves your attention.

Built from this home's actual numbers — the most recent property-tax bill on record — not generic estimates.

The assumptions

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.
