Property Description

From the moment you arrive, this property tells you it's been loved. Every inch has been thoughtfully updated, topped off with a brand-new roof in 2023, so you can settle in and simply enjoy. French doors welcome natural light into the main living area, while the split, open floor plan gives everyone room to breathe without losing that warm, together feeling a true farmhouse should have. The Kitchen is the heart of this home and is nothing short of beautiful. Rich granite countertops, a generous island breakfast bar, and a sunny eat-in kitchen nook invite lazy Sunday breakfasts and lively dinner parties alike. A custom-built coffee bar is ready for your favorite mugs and morning rituals, while the spacious pantry and updated appliances mean this kitchen is as functional as it is charming. Escape to a primary bedroom that feels like its own private hideaway - gleaming hardwood floors, elegant plantation shutters, and a spacious walk-in closet set the tone. Sliding doors lead directly to the pool, so whether it's an early morning dip or a moonlit soak, paradise is just a few steps from your bed. Step outside to your own private oasis: a sparkling pool framed by a large covered lanai, perfect for shaded afternoons and long evening dinners. Rinse off in the outdoor shower, and let the kids, critters, or garden dreams roam free within the fully fenced acre. A shed offers extra storage for tools, toys, or the beginnings of your homestead adventure.
