The Living Room is enhanced with the view through sliding glass doors across your enclosed patio to the nature beyond. This unit has an additional storge closet on the patio, for your extra things that may not fit in the garage.

Upstairs is well designed, making great use of space to comfortably accommodate three bedrooms, two baths, the laundry, and a loft. The Primary Bedroom is privately located at the back of the home with views to the neighboring natural landscape. The tray ceiling adds additional dimension to this ample sized bedroom with en suite bath. There are “His and Her” closets, and a third walk in closet beyond the bath. The Primary Bath has dual sinks with granite counter tops. Your extra-large walk-in shower is glass enclosed providing a light and airy ambiance. The other two bedrooms are at the other end of the second floor, separated by the loft. The Loft provides so many different lifestyle opportunities – will you use it as a study, an office area, a game room, or an upstairs media room? It’s your home…make it your own. The laundry is also upstairs, right where it belongs, so easy to get your clean clothes to the bedrooms and closets.
