The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring 2 walk-in closets and a spa-like bath with a soaking tub. The gourmet kitchen is a standout with Thermador appliances, gas range, custom cabinetry, and a mix of granite and quartz countertops. Hardwood floors, custom trim details and plantation shutters add to the home’s elevated character while impact windows and doors throughout provide peace of mind. Your outdoor retreat awaits with a sparkling pool, Travertine lanai, and a covered living area complete with fireplace, perfect for entertaining or simply unwinding in the serene ambiance.
