About this home

Brand new AC installed end of June 2026! Welcome to paradise at 515 Gleason Parkway in beautiful Cape Coral. Perfectly positioned on a rare oversized freshwater basin lot with an impressive 215 feet of water frontage and canals bordering two sides of the property, this exceptional residence captures wide water views, and the kind of serenity buyers dream about when they imagine Florida living. From the moment you arrive, the tropical curb appeal sets the tone with lush landscaping, towering mature palms, and a sense of privacy that immediately feels like home. Inside, this charming pool home offers three spacious bedrooms, two beautifully updated baths, soaring cathedral ceilings, and an inviting open layout designed for comfortable everyday living and entertaining alike. The island kitchen is the centerpiece of the home, featuring elegant quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, and seamless flow into the main living areas overlooking the water and pool. This home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved, creating tremendous value and peace of mind for the next owner. Recent updates include a brand-new roof completed in 2023, new fascia, soffits, and exterior paint in 2023, a newer pool cage, impact-rated 150 MPH hurricane garage door, accordion storm shutters, and all-new waterproof laminate flooring throughout the entire home. The fully fenced yard was installed just one year ago, providing both privacy and security for pets, family, and outdoor enjoyment. Life on a freshwater canal offers an entirely different boating experience that many buyers specifically seek out in Cape Coral. Freshwater canals are ideal for pontoon boats, fishing boats, kayaks, paddleboards, and jet skis, with access to miles upon miles of interconnected canals and freshwater lakes throughout the city. Spend your days cruising scenic waterways, fishing from your own backyard, kayaking at sunrise, or enjoying peaceful evenings watching wildlife glide across the basin. Freshwater living also eliminates concerns about saltwater corrosion, making boat maintenance easier and more affordable. The location places you close to some of the area’s most popular dining and entertainment destinations including Lobster Lady Seafood Market & Bistro, Rumrunners, Ford's Garage, and The Boathouse Tiki Bar & Grill, offering everything from waterfront dining and fresh seafood to vibrant nightlife and casual local favorites. Families will appreciate proximity to respected schools. Travel is convenient with nearby access to Southwest Florida International Airport and Punta Gorda Airport, making seasonal travel and visiting guests incredibly easy. Commuters and travelers alike will enjoy quick access to major roadways including Veterans Memorial Parkway, Pine Island Road, Santa Barbara Boulevard, and US Highway 41, connecting you effortlessly to Fort Myers, beaches, shopping, golf, and all the attractions Southwest Florida has to offer.
