Inside, the spacious great room is filled with natural light from an oversized window, creating a bright, airy setting that feels welcoming from the moment you step in. The fresh finishes and beautiful flooring give the home a clean, polished look, while ceiling fans in every room add everyday comfort with a touch of practical Florida charm. The kitchen is stylish, functional, and ready to impress, featuring newer STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES, generous cabinet space, a pantry, ceramic tile backsplash, and a breakfast bar perfect for coffee in the morning, appetizers with friends, or casually supervising dinner while looking fabulous.
