    What's special

    Resort-style, spacious 3,942 sq ft home with screened saltwater pool and 3-car garage, packed with big-ticket upgrades and room for everyone. Fantastic for multigenerational living, guests, or a big household. A complete solar system (paid off at closing) keeps FPL bills very low along with HVAC systems from 2018 and 2023, a 2022 roof, recent exterior paint, and city water/sewer. The heart of the home is a spacious kitchen with stainless steel and a huge walk-in pantry, perfect for storage and entertaining. The flexible layout includes a private downstairs suite for guests or in-laws, plus five bedrooms upstairs—three with their own baths —and a loft perfect for a media, game, or play room. Outside, enjoy the screened saltwater pool, a vinyl-fenced yard with plenty of green space for pets, play, or gardening, and a storage shed. Irrigation is on a separate well. Inside, this home is ready for fresh paint and new flooring, giving you the chance to personalize the interior!
