The kitchen opens seamlessly to the inviting living area, highlighted by a cozy fireplace with gas starter and sliding glass doors that lead to the beautifully landscaped backyard. Both bathrooms have been fully remodeled with custom tile showers, glass doors, updated vanities, fixtures, and lighting. The guest bath also features a brand-new tub. The spacious primary suite offers a large dressing area, dual sinks, and an oversized mirrored closet, while the two additional bedrooms are filled with natural light. Dual-pane windows with new two-inch wood blinds enhance both comfort and efficiency throughout the home.

Mature fruit trees including guava, lemon, and tangerine add to the charm. An oversized shed on a permanent foundation—with electrical nearby—offers additional flexibility, while vinyl privacy fencing completes the well-appointed yard. The fully drywalled garage provides ample storage and features a new insulated garage door with automatic opener. The driveway and side walkway have also been newly re-poured. The current formal dining room space was originally designed as a second living area, while the intended dining room is presently used as a home office—offering flexible living options to suit your needs.
