Overview

Description

Reimagined for modern living, this Carlton Groves of Merritt Island home delivers a long list of sought-after upgrades and features. An open floor plan flows beneath recessed lighting throughout, with built-in living room speakers and a gas fireplace creating a warm, inviting focal point. Terrazzo and LVP flooring add both character and durability. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a 2020 roof, full repipe in 2020 with no cast iron, HVAC and AC ducts (2018), updated electrical (2018), a tankless water heater, and hurricane-rated windows and doors. Outside, a large fenced backyard offers plenty of room for a future pool, all with the added bonus of NO HOA.
