A private-entry first-floor in-law suite with wet bar and full bath creates an ideal setup for short-term rental income, guest quarters, or multi-generational living. The main living level showcases rich oak flooring, an open-concept design, and a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring custom wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. The primary suite is conveniently located on this level, while the expansive wraparound porch delivers the ultimate indoor-outdoor Florida lifestyle experience.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
