Waterfront living—thoughtfully designed and ideally positioned.

Located in the northern section of South Gulf Cove, this beautifully maintained three-bedroom, two-bath waterfront home offers no fixed bridges, quick access to the lock, and approximately ten minutes to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf. With approximately seventy-five feet of concrete seawall, a 30-foot composite dock equipped with 50amp shore power + a regular 110 service and water capable of accommodating a 45ft yacht plus a 6,500-lb covered boat lift, this setup is designed for real-world boating.

Inside, the home features a warm Southwest and Mediterranean-inspired aesthetic paired with a functional, open layout. Double entry doors lead into a vaulted great room where full-length sliders bring in natural light and create a seamless connection to the outdoors. A wood-burning fireplace adds character and comfort, while a flexible adjacent space works well as a home office or formal dining area.

The kitchen is both practical and inviting, offering water views, a breakfast bar, and a bright dining area that opens directly to the lanai—ideal for everyday living or entertaining. The primary suite is spacious and well-appointed, featuring a tray ceiling, lanai access, a large walk-in closet, and an en suite bath with soaking tub and walk-in Roman shower.

Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. The covered lanai with exposed beams provides an ideal space to relax or entertain, while the stand-alone hot tub offers a private place to unwind. The home was intentionally designed without a pool to keep maintenance low; however, a reinforced stem wall is already in place should a future owner choose to add one.

Additional highlights include a new hot water heater (2024), 4-ton 17-SEER A/C system (2023), a recently cleaned tile roof, generous garage storage, attic space, and low-maintenance landscaping with no lawn to mow. An optional HOA, community boat ramp, miles of walking and biking paths, and seasonal neighborhood events further enhance the appeal.

Conveniently located between Englewood and Port Charlotte, close to Boca Grande & Englewood beach, golf courses, dining, shopping, and world-class fishing, this home delivers the waterfront lifestyle you've always wanted.
