The private fourth-bedroom suite, complete with its own entrance, living area, and kitchenette, offers excellent guest, in-law, or rental potential. Additional highlights include partial bay views from the front yard, a circular driveway with abundant parking, a large dog run, a new shed installed in 2025, and no flooding or structural damage from past hurricanes.
