Exquisitely furnished by Anna Hislop Home with a beautifully landscaped fenced back yard, pool, dock and large porch perfect for entertaining! The house construction is a combination of block and frame. The structure was completely renovated as well, enhancing the integrity and the insulation of the walls. Generally there are pressure treated 2x6 with a steel mesh system attached that has solid foils backed foam insulation on one side, then metal studs and drywall. On the exterior side of the wall, there is 2” of solid concrete that is applied over the steel mesh that forms the “shell” this is then covered by an additional 2” of foam and stucco for the final coat. Overall an exceptionally strong frame and extremely good for the climate and storm resiliency. The roof was also completely redone, the old roof was removed and replaced, upgrading the hurricane strapping and new waterproofing. The plumbing, gas system and electrical were redone completely with new pipes, cables and wire. The house also has fiber optics pulled with a switch (C3) so that it has the highest speed available. Of course the outside was not missed, completely new dock, driveway, pool and landscaping giving lots of outdoor space to relax and entertain. The water access is extensive but protected so it allows for peaceful kayaking, canoe, paddle board, etc. Located on a very quiet street in the center of everything. A boaters dream. A must see! Broker owned.
