This updated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence is designed for comfort, featuring easy to maintain tile throughout the main living spaces, creating a streamlined aesthetic. The open-concept great room flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen complete with stainless appliances, granite counters, and a westerly facing window for enjoying stunning sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico. Each evening, you’ll also enjoy moonrises reflecting off the bay and gentle breezes over the serene waters from your 22-foot wall of floor-to-ceiling windows in the Florida room, a perfect backdrop for relaxation or entertaining. The primary bedroom, nestled at the far end of the home for privacy, offers more bay views, direct access to the Florida room, and a generously sized ensuite bathroom with walk-in closet and conveniently placed laundry.
