There is beautiful wood laminate flooring throughout the main space, with carpet in the bedrooms and tile in the bathrooms/kitchen. A full 2-car garage offers storage or space for your own home gym. The home's natural light-filled, open floor plan allows you to design the space however you would like! Newly installed impact-resistant Hurricane windows help to keep you safe, while also greatly reducing the impact of UV light- especially your cooling costs.

A large screened lanai overlooks the spacious backyard with a utility shed and treehouse-style playground (which can be removed or remain depending on the buyer's preference). Gorgeous palm trees surround the property to remind you, you live in paradise. A Simplisafe home security system is currently installed; and can be transferred or removed. The optional HOA fee provides access to the community pool and meeting center.
