About This Home
As of July 2023An oversized lot, a rare backyard layout and a flowing floor plan create the foundation of this memory-
making dream house. The custom wood-topped back wall, absence of a neighbor to the back, and
topped side walls create privacy and sanctuary in the recently remodeled outdoor living space. The
outdoor kitchen has a built-in BBQ, refrigerator, and sink, overlooking a separate seating area around
the gas fire pit. The covered dining patio, updated with new lighting, includes a substantial serving
counter, big screen TV, and ping pong table. The outdoor space wraps-around the home, flowing into
the side of those with the pebble-tec pool and jacuzzi and Tuff Shed storage structure with paint
matching the home. The flow continues into the garage through a roll-up side garage door for indoor-
outdoor living. The recently remodeled garage includes diamond-plate flooring, customized cabinetry, a
built-in gym, and two flat screen TVs. The attic space above the garage provides abundant additional
long term storage.
Inside the home, intricate details and custom trims contrast well against the dark brown wood flooring
and elegant light fixtures. The living room has a dome shaped fireplace topped by a large wood mantle.
Views to the pool are on both sides of the fireplace through the upright doors that tilt or swing open.
The spacious kitchen is U-shaped with granite counters and custom top and bottom cabinets. Bosch
cooktop and dishwasher with Jennair double ovens complete the kitchen. All 4 of the bedrooms echo
the same tasteful treatments and trims.
For once, move-in-ready means move-in-ready . . . Furnishings and content are available for purchase.
Did you ever want to start over, walk into a new life, leaving the past behind? This is a home of new
beginnings. Nestled in the corner of a quiet neighborhood near the beach, shopping, restaurants, parks
and excellent schools, the location is idyllic for your next start.
