About this home

So excited to present this darling home with strong bones and lots of potential, offering 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a heated pool and a large side-load 2-car garage, located on a direct access canal just minutes to open water by boat. This home is rich in character, offering thoughtful updates while maintaining its timeless appeal. Major improvements include a new roof (2024), new A/C (2023), seawall reinforced (2020), new refrigerator (2024) and a pool resurfaced in (2021), providing added peace of mind. The home has also been well cared for over the years and has NOT experienced flooding or significant storm-related damage. The home is being sold furnished, making this an easy move-in with no need to worry about buying or moving furniture. Inside, the kitchen features white wood cabinets, granite countertops, and a large pass-through window to the lanai. A charming breakfast nook surrounded by windows creates a bright and inviting space. The dining area includes a built-in window seat that adds warmth and personality. The primary suite offers sliding glass doors to the pool area and an updated bath with a barn door entry, white shaker-style wood cabinetry, a new vanity with quartz countertops, and a light, bright feel. A guest bedroom also features sliding glass doors leading directly to the pool. Outdoor living is a highlight with a spacious covered lanai featuring a striking exposed beam ceiling, a separate grilling area, and a unique sandy “beach” area in the backyard. The screened front entry allows for opening both the front and back doors on pleasant days and enjoying great cross-breezes throughout the home. Located in the desirable Palaco Grande neighborhood, known for its walkable and bike-friendly streets, this home also offers easy access to shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. The oversized side-load garage includes built-in cabinets and a workbench. With its waterfront setting, quick boating access, furnished interior, and standout updates, this property offers a rare combination of comfort, character, and location.
