Waterfront Paradise in Punta Gorda Isles – Sailboat Access, Pool, & Stunning Updates! Experience the ultimate boating lifestyle in this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom waterfront pool home in Punta Gorda Isles (PGI). Nestled on a deep sailboat canal, this property offers direct access to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf via Buckley’s Pass in under 5 minutes—with no bridges to navigate! The 37-foot dock with a 8,000 lb boat lift makes this a true boater’s dream. Adding to the home's low-maintenance appeal, the seawall is maintained by the City of Punta Gorda and was completely replaced in 2023, offering peace of mind for years to come. This beautifully updated home sits on an elevated 9-ft+ lot, keeping it high and dry with no history of water intrusion. Inside, the open-concept kitchen (renovated in 2022) boasts 42-inch wood cabinets with crown molding, under-cabinet lighting, built-in storage solutions, a spice rack, soft-close drawers, and sleek new appliances. Elegant premium porcelain tile flooring (wood-look) runs throughout the main living areas, enhanced by plantation shutters, upgraded baseboards, and modern ceiling fans. Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled—the guest bathroom in 2024 and the primary bathroom in 2025, featuring stylish, high-end finishes. Other major updates include a new roof (August 2023), a new water heater (2025), and a new garage door and opener (installation scheduled for 3/27/25, already paid for by the seller). Outdoor living is a standout feature of this home, with almost 1,000 sq ft of expanded outdoor space. The built-in pool is perfect for cooling off, while the large, screened lanai provides the ideal setting for entertaining or simply enjoying the stunning waterfront views. For added peace of mind, the seller has already completed a home inspection and is willing to share the report upon request, providing buyers with confidence in this well-maintained property. Additional features include storm shutters, a whole-home Simply Safe security system with fire protection covering all doors and windows, and access to fiber optic internet.
