WOW-- SNOW BIRDS we have a BIG Price Reduction today!! Looking for a larger 1200 SF beautiful updated 2/2/1 VILLA that has been tastefully upgraded, and very clean and well taken care of. You can have piece of mind and enjoy care free living in this well taken care of subdivision. The AC was replaced in 2021, new roof in 2020, and new kitchen windows in 2020, and newer SS appliances. Seller is motivated and don't let this Villa pass you by!!

Also, all the beautiful furniture and newer washer /dryer can be purchased for only $2500, why pay big money on shipping when you can have all this for a reasonable cost. This is a great home for snow birds, or a lovely home to retire in.
