About This Home
As of March 2023You’ll love this unique 3-bedroom, 2-bath classic Florida style home, including a detached backyard bungalow cottage. The property features a tropical outdoor oasis with mature landscaping where you can relax or entertain guests in the beauty of nature. Ideally situated just minutes to the beaches of Manasota Key, beautiful Lemon Bay, parks, shopping, restaurants, and great waterfront dining! A hybrid water heater, and other energy efficient features are present to reduce the energy consumption. An upgraded Wi-Fi system ensures you have an excellent connection from anywhere on the property. From the colorful front porch you will likely first notice the original wood floors and ceilings. The kitchen boasts updated wood floors and has plenty of storage space. When it’s time to eat, dine in or enjoy your meal in the fresh air on the lanai area or relaxing in the lattice shade house. There is a step down from the kitchen area to a homey family room. The third bedroom is a separate cozy backyard bungalow with its own A/C wall unit to keep you nice and cool. The two bathrooms both contain pedestal sinks and walk-in showers. One of the bathrooms is in the garage, convenient to the bungalow. The pool is in like-new condition and is fully automated with a heater and lighting. The backyard is truly a remarkable tropical garden. Dominated by large trees and an overall natural feeling, you have many options to relax. The area is fully fenced for your privacy. You can alternate between lounging inside the screened pool cage, lying on your hammock under a tree, or sitting at one of two covered outdoor dining areas. From the variety of subtropical plants and flowers to the pond and waterfall, this botanical bliss is unparalleled. Paver walkways wind through the property, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of nature right outside your door. In addition to the garage, parking is available for four vehicles in the driveway. There is also a stone strip between the front fence and the road (11' wide by 110' long) that can accommodate additional cars, RVs, or vehicles towing boat trailers. Nearby, you can enjoy fishing from the pier, kayaking the waterways or enjoying gulf sunsets. This home is ideally situated just a 1-minute drive from the causeway to Manasota Key. There are three major county park beaches at the north, middle, and south end of the Key. You’ll have a short 20-minute drive to the Boca Grande Causeway and in about 5 minutes, you can be at Englewood Beach with first class saltwater fishing and water sports facilities all in easy reach. Shelling, snorkeling, boating, beach combing and kayaking are some of the activities within minutes of your doorstep. The Cape Haze Peninsula is also home to the Tarpon and Snook capital of the world - Boca Grande. Hurricane Ian did some damage here which is repaired. New roofing for part of the house and the shade house are in place. The fence and pool cage screens are both repaired.
