About this home

NEW PRICE! BEAUTIFUL BAY VIEWS highlight this lite-brite, one story patio home. Open the front door into a generous entry foyer, which offers privacy to the home's second bedroom and a hall bath, equipped with a tub and overhead shower. Around the corner, an expansive living and dining room welcome you to a world of entertainment with high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and excitingly large windows showing off the side-yard, backyard and the quintessential BAY VIEWS! The nicely sized kitchen allows for the fun to begin with plenty of counter space, loads of cabinets and drawers, set off by a stove, oven, microwave, and newer dishwasher and room for a small table with chairs for the quieter meals. Off the Living and Dining Room is the Master Suite, inviting those quieter moments with its high-peaked ceiling, large window enjoying the quietude of the rear yard and the Bay. Master Bath has a shower and spacious walk-in closet. What's more: A 2 car garage with opener and laundry.
