Step out onto the pavers of the first-floor patio and all the warmth, air and atmosphere of the Florida Bay is literally at your feet. And if relaxation is your priority, comfortable loungers in a dark brown wicker pattern and topped with comfortable cushions in off-white are the perfect place to kick back and enjoy the breeze.The patio extends the full width of the house, with a pair of ceiling fans overhead in the beadboard ceiling painted a very light shade of blue. Step down off the porch to a large brick patio where a dark brown wicker and aluminum dinette set can seat up to eight, for dining al fresco with the breezes off the Florida Bay.
The patio is flanked by two large palm trees. The rest of the property is beautifully landscaped with a variety of palms, tropical plants — even a key lime tree and a pineapple on the garage side of the house.
On one side of the house, an outdoor shower is ready to wash off the salt water after swimming. On the opposite side, a colorful HGTV Doggy Dream Home sports a matching blue-and-yellow paint scheme to become a "Canine Cabana."
