The backyard is a true oasis, designed for both relaxation and entertaining, with a pool, pergola, gas fire pit, and built-in grill. A dedicated outdoor half bath and separate shower enhance the resort-like experience, perfect for seamless poolside living. Recent exterior upgrades include a new fence, turf, and an electric gate for added privacy and ease.
