In the large kitchen, you’ll find a cozy breakfast nook and a convenient pass-through window, along with a new stackable washer/dryer, dishwasher, stove, high hats & fans. Natural light fills the vaulted ceiling of the living areas thanks to the sliding glass doors that lead to the screened lanai, which is a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or a cool evening with friends and family.
