The inside has a clean, flowing floorplan with all new double pane windows, remodeled bathrooms, upgraded kitchen, newer roof, central heating and air conditioning and much, much more . The entryway boasts a new elegant front door and sparkling wood floors through the entire home. To the right is an a oversized living room with a fireplace and a giant sliding glass door that frames the tranquility of the large peaceful backyard. Adjacent to the living room is the upgraded kitchen and dining area with newer granite countertops and floors. The dining room has direct access to the garage and laundry area. To the left of the entry is the L shaped hallway with abundant closet space giving it a charming look as it leads you to remodeled master bedroom and bath. There are two other extra-large bedrooms and a remodeled bathroom as well. The backyard has a tree-lined rear with citrus trees, plumeria and more for ultimate privacy.
