The home's bright, airy living areas boast captivating views of the serene lake and surrounding mature trees, creating a peaceful retreat from the bustle of everyday life.
The spacious great room seamlessly flows into the kitchen, dining, and breakfast areas, enhancing the feeling of openness.

The master suite is a true sanctuary with a generously sized bedroom, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Two additional guest bedrooms offer ample space for visitors, and the large den provides the flexibility to be used as an office, hobby room, or whatever suits your lifestyle needs.
For outdoor relaxation, the extended screened lanai—spanning 33' long by 17' deep(including different angles and spaces)—is the perfect spot to enjoy scenic lake views and the lush, private surroundings. The lanai's angles and larger-than-expected size make it an inviting extension of the living space, ideal for dining, lounging, or entertaining.
Additional features include hurricane accordion shutters (installed in 2007), an updated HVAC system (2018), a new water heater (2023), and a new refrigerator (2024). The garage has been extended by 4' to provide extra storage space, with an additional 3' x 11' area for added convenience.
