About this home
Direct Gulf Access, Western Views, Waterfront from Front and Back and NO FLOOD HISTORY! Welcome to a boaters dream in Catalpa Cove! This freshly updated home offers 2,738 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed single-story living space, with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, & a tranquil outdoor oasis! The spacious floor plan lends ample room to spread out, entertain, and enjoy the Florida lifestyle in comfort and style. But the star of the show, is the waterfront views from both the front and rear of the home, with a dock and premium “high” boat lift which can hold a 10,000 lb. boat up to 32 feet long. With direct Gulf access, no bridges and absolutely NO flood history during recent hurricanes, this house is a hidden gem! From the front of the home you will enjoy a beautiful lake view, freshly updated landscaping, and charming curb appeal with a new roof and a courtyard-style driveway offering plenty of space for parking. Out back, the oversized lanai has a brand new clear view pool enclosure, has been freshly painted, and you have direct access to the dock. Inside, the home feels open and airy with volume ceilings and expansive pocketing sliders that bring the outdoors in. With fresh interior paint, new window treatments, updated lighting, and new hardware throughout. The kitchen features granite countertops, 42” upper cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and it opens beautifully into the breakfast nook and family room —making it a perfect setup for entertaining. The primary suite is oversized and includes a cozy sitting area with direct access to the lanai. There’s a massive walk-in closet and a spacious en-suite bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. On one side of the home, you’ll find two large guest bedrooms and a full bathroom. On the opposite end is a den or optional fourth bedroom with a closet—great for guests, a home office, or even a fitness room. There’s also a convenient pool bath located just off the lanai—so no tracking water through the house after a swim! Catalpa Cove is a hidden gem for boaters and water lovers. This gated community offers tennis, pickleball, a playground, a gazebo with restrooms, and even a commercial-grade ice machine—perfect for stocking your cooler before a day on the water. The HOA even maintains the dock. Now, not every home in Catalpa Cove offers the luxury of a private boat dock and lift directly behind the house. Some homeowners have to walk across the neighborhood or down the road to access their boat—but not here. Your dock is just steps from your lanai, making spontaneous trips on the water easy and effortless. Located just minutes from Sanibel, Fort Myers Beach, and great shopping and dining, this location truly has it all. Make this home yours! Contact us today for a private showing!
