Awesome! From the kitchen obtain your favorite beverage and stroll out to the deck with a bird's-eye view toward the golf course. Quality prevails as the owners of the past eight years have updated, improved, or made new the roof, windows, bathrooms, kitchen, etc. Remodeled front porch with interior open design windows adds to the overall living room space. Partially finished basement wired for surround sound holds many potential uses (you decide). Oh Happy Days, Lucky # 7 is simply "AWESOME"!!
