Sitting on a double lot with a view of Lake Morton from the porch this 3/3 with over 1700 square feet of living area offers so much from the heart of pine log cabin design floors in the living areas to the elegant master suite to the modern kitchen to the double garage with workshop and don't forget the front porch! Upstairs is a loft style private suite with amazing neighborhood views. The kitchen has been updated with quartz counters, wood cabinets and modern stainless appliances.

The roof was replaced in 2023, the HVAC in 2025, a new irrigation system in 2025. The house is under warranty for drywood termites which is transferrable.
