Continue through the adjoining wall of double French Doors and you'll find an expansive, comfy carpeted family room filtered with natural light, currently utilized as a home-theater. The kitchen with adjoining dining area is positioned to the left of the entry, and also features vinyl plank flooring, solid wood cabinets, dark stainless steel appliances, a light marbled stone counter with seamless backsplash, and a floor-to-ceiling wood pantry. Located off the kitchen is a bonus room currently used as a den ... but would be perfect for a home office or workout room. The desirable split floor plan boasts a roomy primary bedroom large enough for a desk nook, a double corner built-in closet, and a newer ensuite bath with granite countertops and access to the lanai and spa. The second and third bedrooms on the other side of the home share an updated bath with shower and granite countertops.

In the private, shady backyard framed with Areca palms and tropical plantings, you'll find a huge wrap-around screened-in lanai with an oversized swim spa, and a generous fenced-in grassy backyard ... perfect for gardening, and roomy enough for kids or your fur babies to play!
