## Description

### Agent Description
Endless water & nature vistas! Spacious home is perfectly positioned on premium navigable Sykes Creek frontage w/access to the Banana River, Indian River, Intracoastal Waterway, & ocean via nearby Port Canaveral Locks - a true boater's paradise. Oversized screened-in pool w/elegant paver deck is perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Huge family room offers warmth & charm w/wood-burning fireplace, wet bar, & sliders to patio. Updated eat-in kitchen w/beautiful countertops, convenient pass-through window to patio, & newer appliances. Meticulously maintained w/many recent updates: roof (2020), water heater (2022), RainSoft water filtration (2018), screen enclosure (2018), dock (2019), new pool pump, RhinoShield exterior coating, Massey termite bond, & two HVAC systems serviced annually. Classy vinyl fencing w/double gate for boat/trailer storage. Large bedrooms provide comfort & space, w/luxurious primary suite featuring his-&-hers closets, soaking tub, roomy shower, & dual sink vanity Your own backyard is the prime spot to soak in all the rocket launches that the Space Coast is famous for. This is also the "it" spot to host your Merritt Island Boat Parade bash! Invite all your friends.
