A new architectural roof and HVAC system installed in 2019 provide peace of mind with reliable protection and energy-efficient climate control. The interior features luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, eliminating carpet for easy maintenance and durability. The vaulted ceilings add to the open feel of the home, while a 15' x 12' enclosed Florida room extends the living space with custom roll-down shades, offering privacy and flexibility for year-round use.

The upgraded kitchen is designed for both daily functionality and entertaining. It includes larger custom cabinetry for added storage, quartz countertops for durability and easy cleanup, and a custom center island providing additional workspace and seating.

They feature quartz and marble surfaces, offering durability and an upscale appearance that’s easy to maintain. The frameless glass showers create a modern, open feel while making the spaces easier to clean. Higher counters improve comfort and accessibility, reducing strain and providing a more ergonomic design. Upgraded vessel sinks add a contemporary touch and maximize counter space. These thoughtful updates provide a spa-like experience while enhancing the overall value and appeal of the home.

The guest bedroom includes a Murphy bed, allowing the room to easily transition from guest accommodations to a home office or hobby space.

An accent vinyl shiplap wall as you enter adds a modern touch without overpowering the home’s neutral decor.
