A 7' X 15' DOCK WITH ELECTRIC AND WATER gives you your own space along the canal for fishing, relaxing by the water or enjoying everything that comes with waterfront living. Inside, the home offers a spacious, comfortable layout with an easy connection to the outdoors. The LARGE KITCHEN provides plenty of room to cook and gather, while a convenient PASS-THROUGH WINDOW opens directly to the lanai—perfect for serving food and drinks poolside while entertaining. The PRIMARY SUITE offers a private retreat with separate HIS-AND-HERS WALK-IN CLOSETS and an expansive en-suite bathroom. SEPARATE DUAL VANITIES provide plenty of personal space, while a SOAKING TUB and SEPARATE SHOWER complete the suite.
