About this House

GULF ACCESS WATERFRONT HOME W/10,000 LB LIFT — MINUTES TO OPEN WATER! Positioned on a canal just moments from the Peace River/Charlotte Harbor, this fully updated 2 bed/1 bath waterfront home delivers immediate Gulf access and move-in ready peace of mind. With 60 feet of seawall and nearly instant access to open water, your next day on the boat begins right in your backyard. A 10,000 lb boat lift with canopy awaits you. No bridges. Just quick access to some of Southwest Florida’s best fishing and boating. Inside, the open floor plan creates a bright, connected living space designed for easy coastal living. Oversized windows and recessed LED lighting fill the home with abundant light, while clean sightlines connect the main living area to the kitchen and Florida room beyond. The beautifully updated kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, a center island with breakfast bar seating, stainless appliances, and modern fixtures. Whether prepping a quick lunch before heading out on the boat or hosting friends for dinner, the layout supports both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious Florida room spans the rear of the home, offering flexible space for a lounge area, home office, or additional gathering space. French doors lead to the screened lanai and patio, extending the living area outdoors and overlooking the backyard and canal. The updated bath showcases a contemporary vanity and glass-enclosed shower with crisp, timeless finishes. Bedrooms feature wood-look luxury vinyl flooring, while tile runs throughout the main living areas for durability and easy maintenance. A large interior laundry room doubles as a mudroom and opens directly to the attached one-car garage — ideal for storing boating gear, supplies, and everyday essentials without bringing the outdoors inside. Recent updates provide peace of mind: NEW metal roof (2023), NEW septic system (2022), NEW A/C (2023), NEW PEX plumbing throughout (2025), full insulation, NEW LED lighting, NEW solid-core doors and trim, NEW impact-resistant front door, and fresh exterior paint. The heavy lifting has already been completed. The backyard offers ample space to personalize — add a pool, expand the patio, or simply enjoy the open green space leading to your seawall and lift. A 10x10 shed w/electricity was added to the property in 2020. Located in the Charlotte Harbor area with quick access to I-75, US41, Sunseeker Resort, and historic Punta Gorda, this property combines location, lifestyle, and value. Schedule an appointment today and start enjoying true Florida waterfront living.

    "We live in a beautiful gated deeded community right on the harbor in Port Charlotte. There are 3 boat clubs/yacht clubs in the local area and many activities associated to boating. Charlotte Harbor provides a great resource to Port Chsrlotte. We have newly established parks at the foot of the 41 bridges and walking paths over both bridges - just beautiful. We have Charlotte Harbor beach which few people seem to know about. Immaculate, tennis courts, small swimming pool, and small beach with community buildings and baths, a boat ramp, and easy put in for kayakers. 100s of parking spaces too. It’s a hidden treasure. Still in Port. Charlotte Harbor is the Cape Haze bike trail. It runs for 16 miles in each direction - perfect flat well maintained paved trail with gorgeous animal habitat and bridges across living estuaries full of all kinds of bid species. The list of activities and community events available is too many for this. "
