About This Home

Welcome to your private waterfront retreat—this beautifully decorated, turn-key 3 bedroom, 3 bath home offers the ultimate Florida lifestyle. Enjoy complete privacy with protected mangroves across the canal, so you’ll never look into your neighbors’ backyard. Boaters will love the boat lift with metal roof, new roof (2024), and just a 10-minute boat ride to the end of the canal.
Step outside to a screened pool with heater and spa, perfect for year-round enjoyment, all set on an oversized lot with a private boat ramp ideal for jet skis or kayaks. Fish right from your backyard, where dolphins and manatees are frequently spotted from the 124 ft seawall.
Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed and beautifully furnished, featuring a den currently used as a 4th bedroom/media room, offering flexibility for guests or entertainment. This exceptional property combines comfort, privacy, and waterfront living—move right in and start enjoying the lifestyle immediately. Ideal for investors seeking a strong rental, snowbirds looking for a seasonal escape, or buyers ready to make this exceptional waterfront home their primary residence.
