Light wood-look tile floors in the living areas, new carpet in the bedrooms, & updated lighting with dimmers add a polished feel throughout. Step outside to the covered deck with rolling shades, Bose all-weather speakers, & sleek cable railings, creating an ideal spot to relax with a drink while watching water birds glide across the lake. Upstairs, the two bedrooms offer privacy & comfort, each with beautifully updated baths featuring custom vanities, granite countertops, & modern fixtures. Sliding glass doors in the primary suite lead onto the top-level deck for sunbathing or stargazing with the most amazing views.
