A quick 2-minute drive brings you to Playfield Park, perfect for outdoor fun, while the Beach Club is just 4 minutes away for lounging and swimming.

The modern kitchen and open living spaces flow effortlessly, creating the perfect atmosphere for gatherings with family and friends.

In addition to its natural beauty, this home is equipped with practical modern features, including a Level 2 EV charger, making it ideal for eco-conscious homeowners. While the property DOES NOT include a garage, the generous parking space ensures plenty of room for vehicles.
