A sparkling, heated pool with a travertine surround anchors the space, while a covered dining and lounging area sets the stage for easy entertaining, weekend barbecues, and tranquil evenings under the Florida sky. The two-car garage with an EV charging station and the completely fenced oversized lot provide ample room for storage and play, rounding out the property’s generous footprint.
