Built as a model home in 2007, this house showcases every upgrade the builder had to offer. Look up at coffered ceilings and down at hardwood floors. A first-floor primary suite is designed as a sanctuary with a seating area, as well as a luxury bath outfitted with a Roman shower and soft-close cabinetry. The current owners converted a spacious screened porch to a three-season room with an indoor gas grill and fireplace, making this home a coastal sanctuary.
