Located in the highly desirable Pelican Lakes community, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a large open floor plan with seamless flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas — perfect for everyday living and entertaining.

Granite countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, a gas range, tile flooring in the baths, and a massive custom-built closet that is truly a girl’s dream closet with incredible storage and organization. You will not find a cleaner, more turnkey home with a closet like this anywhere else. The fully fenced side yard and patio provide a private outdoor space ideal for pets and relaxing evenings.
