Enjoy the best of Florida living while still having the perfect home for the holidays. This beautifully renovated four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence pairs stylish interiors with a private outdoor retreat featuring a screened pool, peaceful water views and no rear neighbors. New roof (2023). The impressive two-story family room is filled with natural light and anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, creating an inviting gathering space with the perfect spot for a tall holiday tree and seasonal décor. Soaring ceilings and expansive windows add to the open, airy atmosphere, while the thoughtfully designed floor plan offers plenty of room for entertaining and everyday life. At the heart of the home, the updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry and a generous workspace.
