Updated in 2023, the kitchen features white wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, decorative tile backsplash, custom wood-look range hood, and decorative wood-paneled ceiling.

Outside, the beautiful saltwater pool with sun shelf, paver decking, and spacious screened enclosure invite afternoon swims and relaxing evenings. There is also a screened patio area with ceiling fan that offers shade, while just outside the screening is a great covered outdoor kitchen area with sink and adjoining dining patio that is ready for weekend cookouts. Beyond the pool, the lush, privacy-fenced backyard includes a custom stucco shed and potting station, wonderful for gardeners or anyone wanting to grow fruits and vegetables.
