Custom pantry shelving enhances storage and organization. Nearby, the laundry room features additional cabinetry and a window that brings in natural light. The home offers a desirable split-bedroom layout, with the primary suite privately situated at the rear to take full advantage of peaceful water views. Two additional bedrooms are located at the front of the home, providing excellent separation for guests, family, or a home office. The primary suite serves as a relaxing retreat and features an ensuite bathroom with double vanities, a spacious walk-in shower with an upgraded rain shower head and frameless glass enclosure, and a custom walk-in closet with built-in storage. Step outside to the extended lanai overlooking the water, where it’s easy to imagine enjoying this space year-round.
