The single story model is 3,600 square feet under air, with three bedrooms and four bathrooms, plus a den, bonus room, and an air-conditioned Florida basement – a trademarked feature for Lee Wetherington Homes. “Our clients ask about storage, so this is something we created just for that need. While it is not underground, our Florida basements do provide that extra space many customers desire,” said Peter Mason, vice-president of sales and marketing for Lee Wetherington Homes.

 The expansive open floorplan also includes a large outdoor dining and living area with a beautiful entry portico, an island pool with a fireplace, bar, bridge, underwater bar stools and a grotto.
