Thoughtfully updated and meticulously cared for, the home features a beautifully renovated kitchen and baths, along with updated flooring throughout creating a clean, modern feel that is both stylish and functional. What truly sets this villa apart is the ease of living. Outfitted with Storm Smart hurricane shutters that lock in the center and a Storm Smart roll-down screen on the lanai, storm preparation becomes simple—just lock and go. A brand-new roof (2024) and regularly maintained HVAC add another layer of confidence, showing this home has been proactively maintained in all the right ways.

Simply put, everything is handled for you. Located within the sought-after Plantation community, residents have the option to join the Plantation Golf & Country Club while enjoying close proximity to Wellen Park, CoolToday Park (home of the Atlanta Braves Spring Training), and the stunning Gulf Coast beaches.
