About this home

STEP INTO VACATION MODE! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is a tropical delight. Reimagined for relaxed living both indoors and out. The home invites you outdoors where you can drift away in the heated saltwater pool, lounge on the sun shelf or slip into the bubbles of the jacuzzi. The entire yard has night lighting, and the lanai and pool have adjustable color lighting making the space even more beautiful. Entertain around the outdoor kitchen or adjacent to the lanai cage is a cozy fire pit surrounded by navy Adirondack chairs. The boat rests on a 16,000 lb lift and is surrounded by a composite dock (currently home to a 32ft boat). All this is not to be outdone by the gorgeous cook’s kitchen with all the modern conveniences you would expect. Beautiful quartz countertops show off the clean lines of the white cabinets, the coastal blue tiled backsplash and stainless-steel appliances. And when the table is cleared you can enjoy a round of 8-ball or ping-pong on the versatile and fun dining room table. Pick your poison at the coffee, wine and beverage station. The open family room takes center stage overlooking it all. The main bedroom is enormous as is the ensuite which is perfect in every way. There is even a laundry door (think doggy door large enough to roll a basket of laundry through). The laundry room provides a tidy office space. Two guest rooms are divided by another amazing bathroom. All windows and doors have been replaced with impact resistant glass in the past 2 years, and the roof is just 4 years old. The household appliances, pool equipment, pool heater and A/C have been completely upgraded in the past two years. The 2-car garage has built-ins. Tropical landscaping includes fruit trees and automatic irrigation. For the homes layout and room sizes see the attached floor plan. The home is being sold turnkey so start packing your bags! Close to everything, including the future Cape Coral Yacht Club rebuild! Great community, great neighborhood!
