Property Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Waterfront Oasis Awaits! 3/2 with Attached Garage. Experience exceptional fishing and boating from this Punta Gorda gem, where a fully fenced yard provides plenty of space for pets and children to play. With over 200 feet of concrete seawall along the peaceful shores of Shell Creek, this property offers direct, bridge-free access to the Peace River, Charlotte Harbor, Myakka River, Boca Grande, and the Gulf of Mexico. Step inside to discover a beautifully updated split floor plan combining comfort and style. The expansive living room features large windows framing serene water views, while the Primary Suite offers French doors to a wraparound screened lanai, perfect for enjoying the tranquil setting. The spa-like ensuite includes a claw-foot tub, pedestal sink, and spacious tiled shower with bench. Two generously sized guest bedrooms each boast cedar walk-in closets and charming wood-plank ceilings, sharing an updated bath with tiled shower and cedar linen closet. A series of graceful archways lead to the redesigned L-shaped kitchen and dining area, featuring new cabinetry, countertops, stainless steel appliances, and tile backsplash. Access to both the rear lanai and front porch makes entertaining a breeze. Additional highlights include tile flooring throughout, hurricane-impact windows, an updated electrical panel, and a 2017 metal roof and A/C system. The attached two-car garage includes an adjacent shed—ideal for a workshop or extra storage—and there’s ample room for RV or boat parking. Situated on a lush, .88-acre waterfront lot with no-build land behind it, the property offers a park-like atmosphere with mature landscaping and irrigation via city water. Just minutes to downtown Punta Gorda, shopping, dining, I-75, and area airports, this home blends timeless charm with modern convenience.
