STUNNING WATERFRONT HOME! Days here begin by the water and end beneath glowing skies, with a private dock, heated pool, and thoughtfully updated interior creating a home that lives as beautifully as it looks. An impressive waterfront offering, this home stands apart with DIRECT Gulf access, refined living spaces, and a comprehensive list of recent upgrades. From the street, the home impresses with lush landscaping, irrigation, and fresh exterior paint beneath a new 2024 roof. The NEW Impact-rated windows and doors (2025) also provide peace of mind (front door has Kevlar shutters). Inside the double-door entry, an inviting layout unfolds, highlighted by travertine flooring, upgraded trim work, and abundant natural light. The great room anchors the home and flows seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen, where granite countertops, custom cabinetry, updated appliances, and a modern induction cooktop create a space ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The adjacent dining area enjoys uninterrupted views of the oversized lanai, pool, and tranquil waterway beyond. One wing of the home offers two guest bedrooms and a beautifully updated hall bathroom. Guest bedroom one features terrazzo flooring and two built-in closets, while the third bedroom is finished with luxury vinyl flooring, offering excellent flexibility for guests or a home office. The Florida Room provides a versatile gathering space with sliding glass doors that open to the expansive outdoor living area. The lanai is a true highlight, offering generous shaded seating, a separate pavered sun deck, and a large 2017 PebbleTec-finished salwater heated pool with both a heater and solar heat. Mature avocado, mango, and starfruit trees enhance the setting, adding both privacy and a tropical backdrop. The primary suite is privately positioned and features a spacious walk-in closet with a large safe and an updated en-suite bathroom with a luxurious vanity with storage, dual sinks and walk-in shower with seating. Nearby, the laundry room offers abundant storage, a second refrigerator, and direct access to the oversized two-car garage with workshop space. At the water’s edge, a dock and boat lift added in 2019 are perfectly suited for a monohull vessel and provide fast, direct access to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf. A second waterfront patio with an outdoor chimenea and seating creates an ideal space for relaxing by the water. Transferable flood insurance adds additional value and convenience. Ideally located for both boating and walkability, this home is just minutes from Ponce Park, Fishermen’s Village, and downtown Punta Gorda, offering easy access to restaurants, shopping, farmer’s markets, festivals, and waterfront events. This exceptional property seamlessly blends luxury, comfort, and an effortless coastal lifestyle.
