The core of the home is enhanced by the 11 foot high cathedral ceiling with solar tube in the living room and dining area. This leads to the spacious lanai through the double, pocket, glass sliding doors. Both the interior and exterior were painted in 2013. The entire kitchen was replaced with granite counter tops, “soft close” doors and drawers, and all new stainless steel appliances, and both baths were updated in 2013. The update included new non-slip porcelain tile throughout the home, and 2 new ceiling fans and lighting. The split floor plan creates added privacy for the two bedrooms and the two full baths. The luxury of the large master bedroom includes an en-suite bath and spacious 33 square foot walk-in closet. The second bedroom has direct access to the second bath and has its own walk in closet. You can relax knowing the home has been well maintained. The main electric panel was just replaced (2021) allowing more competitive insurance savings. The 940 square foot pool cage was re-screened and the surrounding pool deck was sealed and painted, and a new septic tank and adjacent piping were installed in 2020, new vinyl plank gray wood-grain flooring was installed in the lanai in 2019, AC Ducts were cleaned and sanitized in 2018, gutter guards installed in 2017, and a new pool heater and variable speed pool pump were installed in 2016. The over-sized garage has a new garage door motor and springs, and holds the washer/dryer and extra storage cabinets and counter top. A parking pad adjoins the driveway and is perfect for your boat or guest’s parking. The home has public water supply with the added safety and insurance benefit of a county fire hydrant across the street. Live and Love the Florida lifestyle in this wonderful home. The property is being sold un-furnished, but the furniture, household items, and art work are available under a separate agreement for a Turn-Key option.
