Rich wood flooring flows through the main living areas, complemented by plantation shutters, crown molding, recessed lighting and French doors. At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen made for gathering, with stainless appliances, abundant cabinetry, a designer tile backsplash and an oversized peninsula with generous seating.

It's an opportunity to arrive with your suitcase and start living the island life you've been waiting for.
