Here's that Butler's Pantry...Butler not included :)
The primary bedroom also looks out to the pool & cabana.
Both of the downstairs bedrooms...yes, there are two bedrooms downstairs...had engineered hardwood floors installed in 2022.

Backyard patio just outside of the den & breakfast room.
There is so much to love about this backyard space.
The cabana has an outdoor shower and storage closet.
The cabana is complete with a summer kitchen, serving bar & dining area.
The gas grill, mini-refrigerator & ceiling fans were recently replaced.
Another cool feature...the pool equipment is located behind the cabana...this moves the pump noise away from the house.
The exterior of the home & the cabana were recently painted with Sherwin-Williams super paint designed for stucco walls.
I told you everything is bigger AND better in Lakeforest Kelliwood.
In 2021 & 2023 the seller invested over $26,000 replacing the 3 A/C units AND heating units!
This property has never flooded.
The floor in this 3 car garage just received a fresh coat of paint.
Plenty of the places for kids to play and explore in this ultra safe setting.
The seller paid approximately $34,000 replacing the roof AND gutters in March 2024.
