About this home

If your dream is to own a Gulf-access pool home in NW Cape Coral at an incredible price, this like-new 2024 property—featuring 3 bedrooms plus a den, 2 baths, and a 3-car garage—is it! Its coastal facade captures the spirit of warm tropical waters and breezy afternoons—a vibrant oasis from the everyday. Inside, double front doors open to an airy, open-concept interior highlighted by soaring ceilings, tray details, and porcelain tile flooring throughout. A private front den provides flexibility for a home office, media room, or possible 4th bedroom. The modern kitchen features wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a generous island for gathering, and stainless-steel appliances. The laundry room offers additional storage, a utility sink, and pantry space. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with dual walk-in closets, dual vanities, and a spacious walk-in shower with dual shower heads. Two guest bedrooms share a bath with convenient pool access. Three sets of sliding doors open to the screened lanai, where you’ll enjoy a pristine pool, sunny western exposure, and gorgeous evening sunsets. The lanai is also pre-plumbed for a future outdoor kitchen. For boating enthusiasts, the property features 80 feet of water frontage on a 120-foot-wide canal with unobstructed views, a concrete dock, a concrete seawall with pilings configured for large-vessel docking, and a captain’s walk. If you're heading out to open water, the trip is quicker than you think. Because the route down the North Spreader to Matlacha Pass is a minimum-wake-speed zone—not restricted by a specific MPH limit—and has just one bridge along the way, you have easy access to Port Charlotte, Cayo Costa, Boca Grande, and beyond! Your future backyard is an expansive network of canals, inviting endless days of cruising, fishing, and waterfront exploration. Additional features include impact-resistant windows and doors, a whole-house reverse osmosis system, a generator inlet for whole house backup power, full-perimeter gutters, automatic irrigation, a high-efficiency pool heater, and a privacy fence. Nobody likes to think about the next hurricane, but in Florida it's part of homeownership. Built in 2024 to meet today’s strict construction codes, with an impressive 11.4-foot finished-floor elevation, this home offers the kind of modern construction and storm-mitigation features that help keep insurance costs in check. When the next hurricane comes through, this is the house you’ll wish you bought. Located just steps from Crystal Lake Park, residents can easily enjoy a sandy beach, public boat ramp, walking paths, fitness stations, and more.
