The home’s impressive curb appeal shines with stone accents on the front facade, custom landscaping, decorative concrete landscape edging, and permanent holiday trim lighting along the roofline for year-round ambiance.

Inside, the seamless layout exudes warmth with rich wood-look tile throughout the main living areas, offering elegance and minimal maintenance.

A beautifully appointed full bath with upgraded finishes, a framed mirror, and Cambria Quartz countertops serve these rooms with elegance and style.
The heart of the home is the open-concept main living area, designed for effortless entertaining and relaxation. The gourmet kitchen stands out with its abundance of linen shaker cabinets with under cabinet lighting, designer backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and stunning Cambria Quartz countertops. An oversized island, illuminated by stylish pendant lights, invites casual dining or intimate gatherings, while a custom frosted-glass pantry door and reverse osmosis system add a thoughtful touch. Just beyond, the dining area is framed by a chic chandelier, flowing into a bright and welcoming great room, complete with tray ceiling and 8’ sliding doors dressed in custom plantation shutters that lead out to the back lanai.
The secluded Owner’s Suite offers a peaceful retreat with large windows that allow ample sunlight to flow in, a ceiling fan, and a sense of refined relaxation.
