Tired of dark depressing homes? Well, you're in luck! This cheerful water view home has fantastic natural light with large windows and the perfect placement of both skylights and solar tubes throughout! Depending on the season, you will always have a way to comfortably enjoy the beautiful weather. During the hottest months, kick back in A/C (replaced Sept. 2017) in the extended sunroom just off the main living space or venture onto the screened patio for a little vitamin D and fire up the grill! During more moderate months, you can open the front door and back sliders and let the warm/cool breezes flow throughout your home! Having a screened entrance keeps bugs at bay and creates a nice spot for pets to enjoy some fresh air! It's also a nice buffer from unwanted guests! Upon entering this traditional open floor plan with cathedral ceilings, your eyes will be drawn to a relaxing water view and lush oak canopy. There's also a formal dining that could easily transition into a craft room, office or den. A fresh coat of neutral paint adds to the crisp, clean ambiance of this move in ready home! The tile and wood laminate are great neutrals to match a variety of decorating styles. In the bedrooms, we will be happy to offer a flooring allowance for the groovy pink and green carpet, so don't fret! We can even arrange this to be done for you! The kitchen appliances all convey and include a Bosch dishwasher, gas range, microwave and refrigerator. Super cute house with a BRAND NEW ROOF done earlier this year!
