What a unique, tropical paradise! On its .29 acre lot -- this 2 1/2 car garage, 2,290 sq. ft. home is located in the neighborhood of HICKORY HILL! Entering the large foyer, you are greeted by a beautiful, custom tiled entryway with decorative tile insets & the SPACIOUS OPEN formal living and dining rm. Your eyes are drawn to the dining rm sliders exposing the tropical paradise that awaits you in the backyard. Extra high ceilings add to the openness of the area.

The home is tiled throughout with oak laminate in one of the Jack & Jill bedrooms, adjacent to the guest bathroom. The third bedroom, off the family room, includes a full bathroom, two oversized closets and an exterior door that leads to the covered patio -- ideal for a MOTHER-IN-LAW SUITE. His & her WALK-IN CLOSETS provide ample space for storage in the KING-SIZED MASTER bedroom.

The kitchen, with GRANITE COUNTERTOPS, informal dining area, island & breakfast bar, provides plenty of space to entertain guests. The kitchen opens to the huge family room, so you stay part of the action while preparing or cleaning up after a great meal. The kitchen & fireplace share custom matching brickwork that tie the two large rooms together and gives a nice, warm, cozy feeling to the oversized open spaces. Along with the large breakfast counter & separate informal dining area, the kitchen includes a great prep area and storage in its island.
