This captivating home has it all, 1,722 square feet of spacious and flexible living that has been tastefully updated with its original layout intact.

The large family room, with private entry and remodeled en-suite bath, easily functions as a third bedroom. A separate wing offers two large bedrooms with generous closets, a beautifully updated main bath, floor-to-ceiling linen storage, and a walk-in storage room and the new 17 SEER A/C will easily maintain living comfort. The large backyard is a private retreat, complete with an extensive patio area including a lanai, newly rebuilt deck and a sparkling classic 1970s pool with original tile.
