At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is equipped with premium Thermador appliances, a spacious island with built-in microwave, custom cabinetry with panel-ready appliances, quartz countertops, task lighting, and a pantry, along with direct access to the elevated rear deck overlooking the canal. From here, the screened porch transitions seamlessly into the dining area and opens to the great room, creating a natural flow designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The great room is enhanced by vaulted ceilings with wood beams, a custom beverage station styled with a glass tile backsplash and white oak shelving, a gas fireplace, and a nearby powder room. Multiple indoor and outdoor living areas—including a second-level lounge with covered deck—provide flexible spaces to gather, relax, and take in the tranquil waterfront setting. This area also offers the option to be easily enclosed with the addition of a small wall, creating a potential fifth bedroom and further enhancing the home’s versatility.
