Your pets have a great fenced in back yard, where so many of you can play and enjoy the great outdoors! I will even install the new pool liner for you! With all the sunlight here, I am always warm to swim in, and my custom deck is great to catch some rays on! I even have a swing set for the kiddos! And a concrete back yard slab for a basketball court! Please come check me out and buy me! Signed, Pretty Blue House on the Corner". PRICE REDUCED!!!! AND - Seller is so confident of this property that he is offering a $500 credit to buyer at closing for One Year Home Warranty from company of their own choosing!

The Primary Bedroom is complete with its own en-suite and also sports a door to your screened-in lanai. Two more bedrooms and a full bath complete this home - but there is a surprise in one of the guest bedrooms! The owner built a loft bed with built-in stairs!
