Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and 2,548 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this exceptional residence captures the timeless character of Old Florida while offering the conveniences of modern island living. Thoughtfully improved over the years, the home features a durable metal roof, Hardie plank siding, an updated kitchen and bathrooms, and beautiful wide-plank wood flooring. The inviting main living area showcases custom wood ceilings, a gas fireplace, and a charming cupola that fills the space with natural light. An open, flowing floor plan leads to an expansive 335-square-foot screened porch overlooking the Harbor Drive Waterways canal, creating a wonderful extension of the living space and an ideal setting for entertaining, dining, or simply enjoying the peaceful waterfront surroundings. The home's comfortable and well-appointed bedrooms provide inviting accommodations for family and guests, while a separate lower-level in-law suite with kitchenette offers additional privacy and flexibility. Outdoor living is equally appealing, with a spacious covered porch overlooking a custom heated swimming pool and spa, surrounded by lush tropical landscaping that creates a private and inviting retreat. For boating enthusiasts, the property offers 80 feet of canal frontage, complemented by a covered 20,000-pound boat lift and convenient access to Charlotte Harbor and the surrounding waterways. Additional amenities include two garages with electric vehicle charging stations, a dedicated golf cart charging station, a laundry room, and a circular driveway finished with classic Chicago brick pavers. Mature tropical landscaping and fencing further enhance the property's privacy and enduring Old Florida charm. Ideally located in Boca Grande's Historic Village, the property offers easy access to everything that makes island living so special. Spend your mornings exploring the waters of Charlotte Harbor, afternoons enjoying the island's beautiful Gulf beaches, and evenings strolling through the Village's charming shops and restaurants, all just a short golf cart ride away. The renowned Gasparilla Inn, world-class golf courses, local marinas, and Coral Creek Airport are also conveniently accessible. A wonderful opportunity to own a distinctive waterfront residence that combines the charm and character of historic Boca Grande with modern amenities, exceptional outdoor living spaces, and the convenience of boating from your own backyard. This is island living at its finest.
