Property Description

Welcome to this beautifully updated home in the heart of Sebastian, where comfort, style, and Florida living come together, featuring waterfront living with your own freshwater canal backyard—perfect for fishing, relaxing, and enjoying the Florida lifestyle. This home offers immediate value and long-term savings with solar panels that will be fully paid off at closing with an accepted contract, along with a roof replaced in 2021, a new water heater, and a septic drain field replaced in 2013, giving buyers peace of mind from day one. The home also features the added convenience of a central vacuum system. Inside, you’ll find a bright and inviting layout featuring updated flooring, modern finishes, and a clean, move-in-ready feel. The kitchen has been thoughtfully upgraded with stylish cabinetry, solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom touches that give the space both character and functionality. The bathrooms have also been tastefully updated, including a beautifully remodeled walk-in shower that adds a spa-like feel to the home.
