Ideal for extended family, visitors, artist studio, and/or additional rental income, so just let your imagination run wild. Directly across the road from Gillespie Park, a dazzling 10-acre monitored park. High-impact hurricane windows and a newly installed roof in 2024 with hurricane tie-downs. The freshly painted main house features a living room and primary bedroom with a shared double-sided gas fireplace, stained acid-washed floors, a common feature throughout the compound, newly installed granite-honed countertops, new subway tiles in the kitchen and freshly painted solid wood cherry cabinets. If it is purity you want, try the Apec Reverse Osmosis dispenser at the newly installed kitchen sink.

An outdoor shower, brick pavers throughout the inspiring courtyard with hanging lights, and a fire pit to capture those spectacular starry evenings. One guest suite was built with the original house with a kitchenette, while the second was built in 2022, complete with a full kitchen and washer/dryer combo. Both suites come complete with mini-split heat pumps, one installed in 2023, and are turnkey furnished. Gillespie Park, which is directly across the street, features grand oaks, recreational trails, a lake, tennis courts, a pickleball court, a gazebo, a dog park and a basketball court.
