This home is truly loaded with upgrades! Please request the full Features & Upgrades List because it’s too much to list here. The oversized kitchen is a chef’s delight featuring a breakfast bar, Samsung Stainless Appliances, granite countertops, solid wood cabinets and a dry bar/built-in buffet with wine fridge. With a formal living room as well as large family/TV room, you find the home feels larger than it is. The 4th bedroom is currently set up as an cabana/pool room featuring a kitchenette, half bath and French doors to the pool deck. Just perfect for entertaining! The outdoor oasis is what truly sets the home apart from the rest. Cool off this summer in the large pool with waterfall and gas firebowl features. Other outdoors features include a large composite deck patio perfect for an outdoor dining or sectional seating, outdoor shower, fire pit and storage shed. Gardeners rejoice with 3 raised beds, composting, 2 large rain barrels and fruit producing trees (mango, pineapple, lime and many more).
