Another view of the primary bathroom. With its nice clean lines, it would be simple to upgrade the countertop with Quartz and add a sink, if one desired to do so. Stackable full-size LG Washer/Dryer stays with home.
Sturdy aluminum pergola with adjustable shade louvers. What a great place to sit and enjoy the landscaped courtyard and pool! The facing fence on the West side of the pool has been recently replaced.
