From the moment you arrive, this home makes a statement with its charming curb appeal, featuring a welcoming covered front porch and architectural accents that frame the inviting, stone accented façade. Step inside to discover a grand, expansive open floor plan designed for both everyday comfort and elegant entertaining. Luxury LVP flooring flows seamlessly throughout the common areas, complemented by soaring ceilings, wide hallways, and oversized doorways that enhance the home’s light-filled, airy feel. French doors open to a sun-drenched office or study, an ideal space for working from home or quiet retreat. The heart of the home is the exquisitely upgraded kitchen, thoughtfully designed with both beauty and function in mind. Highlights include stainless steel appliances, Corian countertops, a gas cooktop with pot filler, double wall ovens, oversized sink with water filtration system, pendant lighting, and a generous island with seating. A dedicated coffee station, breakfast nook, pull-out drawers, and a pantry outfitted with custom California Closets® organization elevate this kitchen to a true chef’s showpiece. Open to the kitchen, the impressive family room is anchored by vaulted ceilings and a striking double-sided fieldstone fireplace with a classic mantel, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The adjacent dining area offers a perfect gathering space for hosting family and friends. The private primary suite is a serene retreat, featuring plush carpeting, high ceilings, and an additional bump-out ideal for a reading nook or workspace. The spacious walk-in closet has been fully customized with California Closets® storage systems, while the spa-like en suite bath boasts an oversized stall shower, heat lamps, and a dual vanity. Two generously sized guest bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned in a separate wing, sharing a beautifully appointed hall bath to ensure comfort and privacy for visitors. A standout feature of the home is the custom-upgraded laundry room, complete with abundant cabinetry, with under cabinet lighting, premium countertops, and a dedicated folding station, both functional and beautifully designed. Outdoor living is equally impressive. An oversized screened porch offers ample space for dining and lounging by the double-sided fireplace and includes a built-in doggy door leading to the fully fenced backyard. Beyond the porch, relax beneath the pavilion equipped with electric and a ceiling fan, perfect for warm coastal evenings.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
