A wall of arched windows adds character, while pocket sliding glass doors open wide to the screened lanai, pool, and spa, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and extending the living and entertaining space outdoors. The kitchen features white cabinetry, quartz countertops, a coordinating backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and extensive recessed lighting. A large peninsula with an undermount sink offers generous prep space and breakfast-bar seating, while a cozy breakfast nook provides an inviting spot for casual meals or morning coffee.
