2.5 Acres of Opportunity Just Minutes from Englewood Beach! This is the perfect time to make this charming two bedroom, one bathroom Englewood Gardens home your own. The property offers the option to purchase a membership to the Englewood Gardens Beach Club, providing access to Englewood Beach along with a bayfront boardwalk and dock, bayside kayak storage and launch, a clubhouse, picnic tables, patio and gazebo with gas grills, Wi-Fi access, special events, and the ability to reserve the clubhouse for private gatherings. Exceptional privacy and room to grow create an ideal setting to expand this property into a future compound. A long driveway welcomes you in, allowing the home to sit comfortably set back from the road and surrounded by mature trees for a peaceful, secluded feel. Inside, the bright and open great room features laminate wood flooring and newer carpet, offering a comfortable space for everyday living. The well designed kitchen includes granite countertops, a center island, white cabinetry with soft close hinges, and stainless steel appliances, making it both functional and inviting. Both bedrooms are nicely sized, while the bathroom is thoughtfully finished with dual granite topped sinks and a large step-in fully tiled shower with glass doors and a built-in niche. Sliding doors from the kitchen open to the screened lanai, extending your living space outdoors and providing the perfect spot to unwind with morning coffee or an evening cocktail while enjoying the natural sounds of the wooded surroundings. Additional highlights include a storage shed with a newer roof, a 2020 roof, and a 2020 HVAC system. Conveniently located near Historic Dearborn Street, you'll enjoy easy access to local boutiques, waterfront dining, tiki bars, and live music that give Englewood its laid back coastal charm. Englewood Beach is only about three miles away, making spontaneous beach days, sunset walks, and Gulf breezes part of everyday life. The area also offers abundant recreational opportunities including boating, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, hiking nearby nature trails, and exploring the surrounding waterways. With shopping, dining, and medical services all close at hand, this home at 285 S. Oxford Drive delivers a relaxed coastal lifestyle that blends convenience, outdoor adventure, and peaceful privacy.
