About This Home

As of January 2026

Step into a home that is anything but typical. From the moment you arrive, you'll sense that this is not your average floor plan, it's a home designed with character, comfort, and thoughtful detail. This beautifully unique residence offers three spacious bedrooms, an office, and a versatile bonus room. The recently re-plastered pool and spa create a serene backyard escape, ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, you'll find updated wood flooring, an elegantly refreshed kitchen, and 2 fireplaces, one in the living room and another in the primary bedroom that add warmth and charm. The unique layout feels both open and inviting yet cozy and welcoming - a rare combination that makes this home truly special. Practicality meets convenience with an abundance of storage throughout, a newer roof and air conditioning system and an oversized two-car garage complete with its own bathroom, perfectly situated for easy access from the pool area. Not your average home, simply an exceptional one!
