Located in Gulf Gate Woods, this charming three-bedroom home fuses comfort with idyllic indoor/outdoor living. Come home through the arched entryway of the covered porch where a colorful bougainvillea welcomes your arrival. The spacious split floor plan delineates public from private spaces, perfect for entertaining or savoring more quiet, reflective moments.
