From the listing

This exceptional residence is truly one of a kind and unlike any comparable property in the community. More than simply updated, this villa has been completely renovated with over $120,000 in improvements and furnishings completed in 2022. Originally intended to be the owner's forever home, no detail was overlooked. This beautifully appointed 2-bedroom, 2-bath split-bedroom villa offers a bright, open floor plan designed for comfortable living and entertaining. The stunning chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large center island, new stainless steel appliances, and a spacious dining area perfect for hosting family and friends. The expansive living room flows seamlessly into a 344-square-foot Florida room, providing generous additional living space for relaxing or accommodating guests. Throughout the home, you'll find elegant porcelain tile flooring, fresh interior paint, and beautifully renovated bathrooms with new vanities, sinks, toilets, and custom tile surrounds for both the tub and showers. The air-conditioned laundry room includes a new washer and dryer, utility sink, and new electric water heater. Additional major improvements include a new HVAC system, custom blackout shades, barn doors in the guest area, and all-new plumbing from the villa and laundry room to the street. Built with peace of mind in mind, the home features hurricane-impact windows in the bedrooms and bathrooms, hurricane shutters, and even upgraded flooring in the covered carport. The rear patio showcases attractive new pavers, a barbecue area, and a convenient storage shed.
