The Space
Outdoor living is the heart of our home. Nestled on 7,800 square feet of land, our spacious wraparound deck is surrounded by lush fruit trees—banana, mango, avocado, lime, lemon, papaya, and tangerine—creating a private oasis shielded from the road.
Inside, the open-plan kitchen and living room feature tall ceilings ranging from 10 to 15 feet, giving the space an airy, expansive feel. The kitchen includes zinc countertops and a versatile island on wheels, which we move between indoor and outdoor spaces depending on occasions.
🛏️ Bedrooms:
• Primary Bedroom: Queen-sized bed, ample natural light.
• Children’s Room: Lofted twin bed with a twin sized bed underneath. We can swap the lower bed back to a sized bed, depending on your needs.

The pics were taken with my Daughter's Iphone.
We have a cat.
