Check out this remodeled ~Mid-Century Modern~ 4-bedroom, 2-bath 1500 sq-ft home, which lies on a fruitful Xeriscaped (Florida Friendly Landscape) lot. The updates include restoring the original 1960's terrazzo flooring and restoring the roaring fireplace. Kitchen upgraded with new tile, gas range & hood, Copper Farm Sink, High End Appliances, Hickory Cabinets, and surrounded with the Chic MCM decor. The generous primary bedroom (or in-law suite) opens directly out to the backyard garden, and it's beautiful splendor.

The low maintenance Xeriscaping beautifully highlights the various mature fruit trees (mango, passionfruit, mulberry, kumquat, papaya, and banana, among others). Upgrades ~ High End Washer & Dryer, Two Refrigerators, 3 Mini Splits AC (one in the garage), newer Central AC, 2017 Metal Roof, and all Cast Iron plumbing replaced. Here's the Cherry on Top ~ Richards Rd. provides private-beach access + beachfront gazebo ((AND)) a private-boat ramp/sitting area for fantastic Indian River sunsets!
