About This Home
As of July 2025Behold a rare gem located in the tranquil heart of North Cape Coral—a veritable sanctuary of sophistication perched upon the shimmering expanse of an enchanting freshwater lake. This extraordinary residence is not merely a home; it is a fully furnished, turnkey masterpiece, currently operating as a thriving vacation rental with an impressive portfolio of forward bookings, poised to generate immediate and ongoing revenue for its fortunate new owner should they choose to keep those guests. Or, make this your impressive homestead, and enjoy the striking Florida sunsets every evening across your pool and lake view. This is not just a luxurious acquisition—it is a prudent investment. Not in a flood zone, with a new roof (2023), new pool heater (2023), and other new components such as salt system, stove, washer, dryer, eaves, and more.
Upon entry, one is immediately captivated by a harmonious fusion of elegance and functionality. Expansive living spaces unfold beneath lofty coffered ceilings, where natural light dances across polished surfaces and bespoke architectural flourishes. The kitchen provides views of the living area, pool, and lake. The heart of the home—the grand open-concept living room—boasts a custom-built entertainment center that evokes both warmth and refinement, seamlessly connecting to the gourmet kitchen adorned with lustrous granite countertops and rich wood cabinetry.
Retreat to the palatial master suite, where serenity reigns. Framed by gracious sliding glass doors that open onto the lanai, this sanctuary features dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired ensuite bath complete with an oversized jetted soaking tub and separate shower—crafted for indulgent repose. Each guest suite offers generous dimensions, ensuring comfort and privacy throughout.
Step outside and be transported to a private resort setting. The lanai cradles a glorious aquamarine pool, resplendent under the sun with its graceful contours and elevated spa spilling gently into the waters below, all enclosed within a panoramic screen that invites unobstructed sunset vistas across the lake. Whether sipping morning espresso or evening wine, the view is nothing short of sublime. For those with a penchant for aquatic exploration, kayaks and a composite dock are included—an ideal launch point for peaceful lake excursions. Outside of your pool area is a garden setting, perfect for BBQ gatherings. The residence is further enhanced by a whole-house reverse osmosis water system, a coveted feature among the most prestigious homes. A spacious three-car garage offers ample room for vehicles, storage, or recreational gear. Every detail—from intelligent layout to high-end finishes—has been curated for both opulence and utility. Whether you seek a decadent personal retreat, an income-generating asset, or both, this exceptional abode delivers. In a market teeming with ordinary, this is the extraordinary—an offering of uncommon caliber for those who recognize true distinction.
