Welcome to 600 Squirrel Road, where a newer home has been thoughtfully transformed with warmth, personality and practical upgrades inside and out. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,773 square feet with an open living, dining and kitchen layout designed for everyday life and gathering.

Updated and additional lighting throughout the kitchen, dining area and baths includes pendant lighting over the island and a custom dining fixture, while mid-century modern accent paneling brings architectural interest to the dining room and one bedroom. The kitchen has been enhanced with open shelving, soft-close cabinet hinges and an RO water system.

Additional improvements include fresh paint, updated guest fixtures, a glass shower door in primary bath, additional electrical work and a fully fenced yard. Outside may be one of the home's best surprises. A concrete patio and pergola covered in mature jasmine create an inviting outdoor living space surrounded by gardens designed to be enjoyed rather than simply looked at. Pollinator-friendly garden beds are joined by jasmine and honeysuckle along with fruiting orange, fig and peach trees, blueberries, blackberries and lemon, creating a backyard that feels established, personal and alive. The lifestyle extends beyond the property. Nearby Cat Island Park and Juniper Lake offer opportunities for paddle boarding, biking, walks and picnics by the water.
