Situated on a 1/2-acre lot at the end of a peaceful dead-end street, this 3,000 sq. ft. residence blends timeless Florida character with modern updates and serene surroundings. Step inside to discover vaulted ceilings lined with cedar tongue-and-groove and accented by cypress beams, creating a warm, cabin-like feel throughout the living spaces.

The flat roof section has also been completely redone. Master Suite Sanctuary: A custom-designed retreat featuring a one-piece solid stone sink, brushed nickel fixtures, and a seamless glass shower with dual rain shower heads, custom tile, and River Rock flooring. Tropical Backyard Oasis: Lush, professional landscaping featuring a variety of fruit trees (Mango, Papaya, Avocado, Peach, Navel Orange, Tangelo, Lime, and Mulberry) maintained by an automatic sprinkler system. Pool Ready: The expansive backyard is perfectly suited for a pool or jacuzzi, already pre-wired with the proper amperage for easy installation. Ample Storage: Large front carport designed to accommodate an RV or boat. Premium Finishes: Central vacuum system throughout, custom marble flooring/counters in the guest bath, and a large screened-in porch with brick accents and skylights.
