This home offers flexible living spaces perfect for families, entertaining, or multigenerational arrangements. One of the best features of the property is the extra large screened pool enclosure, featuring an in-ground heated pool—and a unique one-of-a-kind fountain feature that becomes a stunning focal point by day and sets an elegant mood when lit at night. Adjacent is a gas-heated hot tub/spa, built directly into the pool deck for year-round relaxation or wellness escapes. Pool lighting, outside bath access, and a large, covered outdoor kitchen area with a commercial, stainless steel grill and hood elevate the fun. Step through multiple sliding door entrances into an airy and inviting interior with vaulted ceilings, tile and hardwood flooring, ceiling fans, and a handsome wood-burning fireplace. The layout seamlessly connects formal living and dining areas with a bright family room and a well-appointed chef’s kitchen featuring a gas range/oven, double wall oven, built-in microwave, wine fridge and enough counter space for meal prep and entertaining. Outside, the professionally manicured front and backyards delightfully balance form and function. In the backyard, a neatly maintained vegetable garden along with fruit bushes ( blueberry, blackberry, grapes) and fruit trees (mulberry, loquat, fig) supply fresh fruits and vegetables throughout the year. Mature trees, landscaping, lighting, and irrigation provide a tranquil ambiance and privacy. The covered and screened lanai overlooks the pool and garden—a perfect setting for parties, summer barbecues, or sunset relaxation. Additional highlights include an attached two-car garage, large indoor laundry room, central HVAC with natural gas heating, new energy-efficient gas water heater in 2025, and an architectural shingle roof. The house also has hidden boat/RV parking at the end of the driveway that is currently configured to fit a 35 ft trailer but can be easily reconfigured to accommodate a 55 ft. vehicle.
