The kitchen dining area features a bay opening to the screened pool deck. The flow and natural light of this home will delight you everyday. Open living and dining areas are spacious, functional, & look out to a private landscaped view. Rich hand scraped solid wood Bamboo planks grace the floors throughout save for the porcelain tile in the wet rooms. All of the bathrooms have been updated. Two bedrooms feature en suites and all have generous closets. Even the large laundry room has been updated with new cabinetry & utility sink. Structure and mechanical system needs are not a fun way to spend money, and you won't have to do that here.
