Welcome home, where thoughtful design & quiet luxury make this sanctuary unforgettable. Set on an oversized, newly re-landscaped lot, this pool retreat has been transformed with timeless upgrades—from the new roof & skylights to the handcrafted Hardie-board exterior that wraps the home in comfort & durability. The elevated deck has been rebuilt & skirted in Hardie-board for a seamless look, while the screened porch, fresh sod, & private grill deck with a dedicated gas line create outdoor spaces perfect for lingering sunsets and effortless entertaining.
Inside, natural light pours through impact slider & across warm LVP floors, highlighting a mahogany front door & a reimagined fireplace wall that anchors the living space. Every corner reflects care: remote-control shades, dimmable lighting, rebuilt garage AC, added insulation, upgraded electrical, clear-water well sprinkler, built-in closet system, & a transferable termite bond. This is a home ready for its next cherished chapter.
