Modern upgrades complement the craftsmanship, including a new tile roof (2023), new dock (2023), newer HVAC systems, impact-rated windows and doors, premium kitchen appliances, and a 500-gallon buried propane tank. Constructed entirely of concrete block on both levels, this home offers enduring built quality and strength rarely found in homes today.
