This home is one of the best-maintained homes in Island Club Retreat! The homeowners have lovingly renovated the inside and outside of the home in the years they have lived here. The majority of the renovations have been in the last two years. The Primary bedroom is on the main floor. All three of the wood-burning fireplaces are slate. This home lives well! The second Master suite/sitting room/fireplace is upstairs with three other bedrooms. The storage in this home is abundant. The yard is a gardener's dream with blended topsoil for flowers and vegetation. The gardens are mostly perennials in the pollinator gardens. The orange, and lemon trees, roses, and camellias adorn this lot. Whether you are a homeowner who enjoys putting on your gardening gloves or prefer to look at the garden, perennials may be your answer. There is no better way to wake up each morning than to look out your window only to see pollinating bees already at work as they enjoy varieties of salvia, coneflowers, gaura, and Mandevilla. Hummingbirds easily move from plant to plant, briefly hovering to assess the next flower to try. Milkweed is a favorite if you enjoy the fluttering Monarch butterflies as this is the plant necessary for them to lay eggs for future generations. Perennials offer easy gardening with sprinklers placed for no-nonsense automatic watering. As fall descends, plants fade back to the ground to rest until the return of Spring. For the home entertainer, nothing says welcome like your own fresh flowers. Hydrangeas bloom profusely in hues of white, pink, purple, and blue depending on the mood of the soil Clip off a few stems, remove leaves, and place them in a pretty vase with warm water. During the fall and holiday seasons, dried hydrangeas add an element of nature to your wreaths and garlands. The view across this considerable lot toward the Retreat Golf Course into the sunset is breathtaking from either the covered porch or the open porches! The outside shower has both hot and cold water!
