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 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 windows for showings are afternoon of 3/10, morning of 3/11 and afternoon of 3/23, and 3/24 am.
