The heart of the home features an open living area with custom wood ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, a charming cupola that fills the space with natural light and flows to a large 335 sqft screened porch looking over the canal for true indoor-outdoor living. The primary bedroom and additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations, while an in-law suite with kitchenette on the lower level offers flexible living options.
