The main house features 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and 1 half bath, showcasing original wood floors and a metal roof that exudes timeless character. Double pane windows, installed just eight years ago, maintain their vintage charm with the original frames. In 2016, an inviting patio and screened lanai were meticulously added using premium ipe wood, complemented by a Bullfrog hot tub for your relaxation. The kitchen is both functional and stylish, with cork flooring, Miele appliances, a tankless water heater, and a new Miele washer and dryer still under warranty. Modern updates abound, including a 2016 Daikin AC system (under parts and labor warranty till 2028), three new electrical panels, and fully updated plumbing. The property is connected to public water and sewage, with a well available for irrigation needs, and an electric vehicle charging port is also installed!
