This is your opportunity to own the eco-friendly tropical garden home of your dreams. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with a den has been lovingly maintained by it's current owners for over a decade, both inside and out. Inside the home you'll find beautiful tile floors installed in 2016 as you walk into the bright and airy open floor plan. The master bedroom has a very spacious bathroom with his and her sinks, a separate room housing the toilet, updated bath tub and shower combo, and a large walk-in closet. On the opposite end of the house you'll find two bedrooms that have not been lived in as they have served as guest rooms, and a fourth room that is currently used as a large office but could easily be converted to a fourth bedroom. All of the windows and sliders were updated in 2017 and 2021 to impact-resistant double-paned glass, which will save you time during storm prep as you won't have to worry about putting up shutters. The standing-seam metal roof was installed in 2017 and solar panels were added in 2018 and expanded in 2021 to meet the energy needs of the home plus charging requirements for an electric vehicle. The one-acre garden has been carefully curated by the owners to be part nature preserve, part botanical garden and part food forest. As you walk the fully fenced one-acre property you will enjoy the peaceful sounds of birds as you stroll through the nature trails filled with native plants, orchids, tropical fruit trees and 11 raised beds for raising vegetables. The soil has been organically enriched for over a decade so there is no need for fertilizer in this yard. This is a no-mow yard with mulch and shell paths throughout the fully landscaped lush garden. Spend your weekends enjoying the sounds of nature instead of the sounds of a lawn mower. Appliance updates include new AC 2021, new water heater 2024, new tankless sulfur-removal water treatment system 2024, new garage door opener 2024, new KitchenAid dishwasher 2024. Enjoy not having to pay for electricity thanks to the solar panels and energy efficient upgrades to the house. Couple those savings with a low tax bill, no flood zone, and dozens of mature tropical fruit trees and this house basically pays for itself. A list of tropical fruit species in the garden is available upon request and includes hundreds of pineapples, papayas, mangos, coconuts, avocado and many more! The garden also includes a Tuff shed installed in 2015 and a wildlife pond stocked with mosquito fish. Don't miss this incredibly unique opportunity to own this eco-friendly tropical dream home!
