The family room flows into a gourmet kitchen and bar with modern stainless steel appliances, gas range, and a wine chiller. Host elaborate meals in our elegant dining room that seats up to ten.
Our home has TWO master bedrooms; the first on the main floor with a walk out to the pool and lanai. The upstairs master bedroom has its own covered balcony overlooking the pool and sweeping views of the bay as well as an en-suite bathroom with a tub and a rain head shower.
