The family room has built-in bookcases and shelving plus a skylight for natural lighting. A solarium-like room adjacent to the family room has access to the backyard and pool area giving the options for children’s play space or home office. The kitchen was extended and updated in 2014-2015 with new Cambria countertops, cabinetry plus stainless steel appliances as well as a generous sized center ‘work’ island with extra storage. A delightful breakfast area with French doors leading outside to a slatted pergola was also added during the renovation as well as a large laundry room. The floor plan affords privacy for its owners with a split bedroom plan. The generous sized owner’s suite includes a remodeled bath, walk-in closet plus an area that can be used as a study or home office. The 2nd bedroom en-suite is currently used as a craft studio with a walk-in closet and direct access to the pool deck.

The property is surrounded by lush tropical foliage including 3 types of fruit trees, palm trees and flowering plants. A well services the irrigation system.
