The screen-enclosed pool area allows you to enjoy the crisp autumn breezes without the annoyance of bugs, while the screened front porch invites you to open the doors and let refreshing air flow through the home. Inside, the spacious open floor plan is accentuated by elegant travertine floors and Silestone engineered quartz countertops in the kitchen, complemented by huge windows that flood the space with natural light. The formal living room showcases engineered hardwood flooring, and the family room boasts a charming brick fireplace, creating a cozy atmosphere for gatherings. A formal dining room provides an ideal setting for entertaining.

The upstairs area features luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, including an en-suite bath in the master bedroom. This home is equipped with a generator transfer switch and generator for peace of mind, as well as a water filtration system for clean, refreshing water. With tons of storage and three interior rooms that can serve as protective shelters during hurricane season, this property is not just a home; it’s a sanctuary waiting for you to make it your own. Conveniently located just 2 miles from Highway 27, shops, and restaurants, this is the perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility.
