About 255 Cortez Rd
Welcome to La Cajita!This 1970's bungalow was completely transformed by Trish Becker Design, FGS Design Architects, and Ritzzo Development into a three bedroom/three bathroom stunner. The galley kitchen, which was reconfigured for maximum flow, has new cabinetry, a Lieberr fridge, Cafe smart gas range and Bosche dishwasher. The two queen bedrooms have new en-suite bathrooms, sizable closets and access to the pool. The fully enclosed garden features a new heated saltwater pool, built-in grill area with smoker, and a small garden shed obscured by new landscaping. An air of Island chic is evident throughout, emanating from the vibrant color palette of encaustic tiles and fun fabrics.The next window for showings is from 4/1-4/14
