About This Home

As of January 2018

Convenient to beaches & area shopping/dining, it includes over 2,300 sq.ft. of living space & a detached 2-car garage w/ an unfinished bonus room. Carpet is located in many of the rooms, but peek underneath & you'll find hardwood flooring. An x-tra wide hallway is a bonus adding privacy between bedrooms. The sunroom off of the kitchen offers tons of natural lighting, & the outdoor living areas are delightful. To one side is a large patio surrounded by lush foliage. On the other is a cozy porch - the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail. This home received a new roof in 2015. A home warranty is included for added peace of mind.
