About this home
WATERFRONT 3 BR/2 BA MODULAR ON THE WATER!!! This home was free from storm surge from Hurricanes Ian, Helene, or Milton! Looking for views? The sunroom alone has gorgeous waterfront views from all windows and also hurricane shutters to protect said windows! This home has been immaculately well taken care of and is even sold partially furnished. Already present on the property are 90' of seawall, boat lift, and dock with quick access to the Intrarcoastal Waterway, Gulf of Mexico, and all of the Lee County Outer Islands. Not to mention some of the best fishing in all of SW Florida without the hassle of bridges or locks! Imagine getting on your boat and within a few minutes being in Boca Grande Pass, at the "Tarpon Fishing Capital of the World"! Parking should not be an issue with plenty of space for parking a boat trailer and extra vehicles. It's only a short a golf cart ride to several restaurants, the St. James City General Store, and marinas. The many osprey and bald eagles flying overhead, along with the manatees and dolphins in the canal will keep you mesmerized for hours! The seawall was repaired in 2022 and 2024. New A/C in 2022 and roof in 2023. Make your appointment to see this lovely property and enjoy your winter in the warm tropical breezes of Pine Island!
