Recent Price Reduction! This beautiful custom home is located on a large pond-front lot, out of the flood zone, in the distinctive Island Forest neighborhood.

Two guest BRs, a full guest bath and half bath, as well as a laundry & pantry off the kitchen complete the main level. The entire top level is a fabulous owner's retreat that includes a den with another gas fireplace, master suite with deck overlooking the pond & downtown CB, large walk-in closet, & master bath w/tile shower and spa tub. On the ground level is an ''in-law suite,'' featuring a lovely guest BR, full bath, & large den with slider access to the back patio.
