Situated on a nearly half-acre homesite with beautiful golf course views both in front of and behind the property, this spacious and beautifully maintained residence offers exceptional versatility as a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or investment opportunity.
This incredible 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features over 2,700 square feet under air with a thoughtfully designed floorplan ideal for both comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The home includes a den/bonus room, formal dining room, living room, family room, vaulted ceilings, and an oversized 3-car attached garage.

Inside, you’ll find warm wood kitchen cabinetry, walk-in closets, abundant natural light, kitchen and laundry appliances. Ceiling fans throughout for year-round comfort. Seamless indoor-outdoor integration is a hallmark of this home’s design: elegant French doors lead outside from the master bedroom, while both a sliding door and an additional set of French doors open to the lanai from the family room.
