Why this home stands out
What sets this address apart is the rare combination of walkable convenience and suburban calm. Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, Target, and Publix are all within two-tenths of a mile, yet the street itself stays quiet. At 2,126 square feet across three bedrooms and two and a half baths, the floor plan gives everyone room to breathe — and the 2004 build year means the bones are solid without being dated.
