With its meticulously updated and upgraded living space replete with custom appointments and an additional 442 square-foot screened-in patio, this lovely home is a retreat you will be proud to call “home.” It is also a true entertainer’s paradise that exudes luxury, refinement, and quality craftsmanship throughout. The sun-drenched open floor plan with 9 foot ceilings is thoughtfully designed with comfort, convenience, and sophistication in mind.
