The spacious primary suite is a sanctuary of comfort, with large windows that invite the morning sunlight and showcase breathtaking sunsets in the evening. Two walk-in closets, dual vanities, a luxurious walk-in shower, and, of course, a relaxing soaking tub complete this retreat. Meticulously maintained with impeccable attention to detail, this home is truly move-in ready—offering an effortless transition to your dream lifestyle in paradise. And if you're in the mood for a swim, just across the street, less than a minute's walk away, you'll find an Olympic-sized pool with outdoor lounges and all the amenities you’d expect.
