home Property Description

DIRECT GULF ACCESS just minutes to the river and a short boat ride to the Gulf — welcome to Nautilus Drive, a quiet waterfront-only street in one of Cape Coral’s most desirable boating neighborhoods. This beautiful 3 br+den, Gulf-access pool home offers the ideal blend of location, lifestyle, and thoughtful upgrades, making it a standout opportunity for both end users and investors. From the moment you step through the double front doors, soaring ceilings and an expansive open layout create a bright, airy feel throughout the main living areas. The redesigned kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops with impressive detail, stainless steel appliances, a Bosch dishwasher, hidden cooktop exhaust, and a large movable island perfect for gathering and entertaining. The living spaces transition seamlessly to the oversized lanai, creating effortless indoor-outdoor living.
Major improvements include a tile roof, complete plumbing re-pipe, refinished saltwater pool with water feature, updated pool heater, refreshed bathroom vanities, a wheelchair-accessible shower, expanded living area, paver driveway, re-decked dock with canopy, 12,000-pound boat lift, and fencing for added privacy. The HVAC system has also been replaced. The spacious paver pool deck and generous covered lanai overlook lush tropical landscaping and fruit trees, creating a private, resort-style setting designed for relaxation after a day on the water.
With true direct Gulf access, extensive upgrades, and excellent seasonal and annual income potential, this property presents an exceptional opportunity whether you’re searching for a full-time waterfront residence, winter retreat, or income-producing investment. This is Cape Coral boating at its best. NO FLOODING EVER IN THIS HOME!
