Property Description
HIGH & DRY FRESHWATER WATERFRONT LIVING – Not in a flood zone and with no storm-related issues to the home! Experience the ultimate Florida lifestyle in this newly renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 2-car garage home with a private dock rebuilt in 2022. All present furnishings are included. A surveillance system with video monitoring provides added peace of mind. Recent improvements make this home truly turnkey. In 2024, the pool was resurfaced, the entire house was repiped, new tile flooring was installed, and fresh paint and lighting were added throughout. The 2022 kitchen update brought granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, all-new stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a pass-through window to the poolside patio, perfect for entertaining. Essential updates include a two-year-old septic tank and drain field, a newer roof, hurricane-impact windows from 2020 (Per permits there are 8 hurricane impact windows), and a reliable A/C unit still under warranty. Enjoy 80 feet of serene freshwater frontage along the Morningstar Waterway, where you can fish, launch a kayak, or savor your morning coffee by the water. Disappearing sliding glass doors connect the interior to the covered Florida room, which flows seamlessly to the screened pool and lanai, creating an ideal space for indoor-outdoor living. With no deed restrictions, an extra parking pad provides plenty of room for a boat, trailer, or RV. The gravel area to the right of the home makes a perfect spot for your family dog to run and play. Surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, the backyard is fully fenced for added privacy and features a fruit-bearing orange tree, offering the luxury of fresh-squeezed juice right from your yard. Nearby, multiple community boat ramps make it easy to explore the area’s scenic waterways. This home offers peaceful seclusion while keeping you close to local attractions. Nature trails, golf courses, and beaches are all within reach, and it’s just a short 15-minute drive to Sunseeker Resort, Fishermen’s Village, Downtown Punta Gorda, and the vibrant Restaurant Row. Within 45 minutes, you can be on the pristine shores of Boca Grande or Englewood Beach, enjoying the crystal-clear waters and sugar-sand beaches.
Why wait? Stop dreaming and start living the coastal lifestyle today!
