About this home
Price reduced... Nestled in the heart of Port Charlotte on a rarely available large lot of nearly a half acre, this charming custom-built 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home offers the perfect blend of space, comfort, and Florida lifestyle. Located in a quiet, well-maintained neighborhood just minutes from I-75, shopping, dining, and world-renowned Gulf beaches, this 2004 home boasts an airy open floor plan with split bedrooms—ideal for both families and entertaining guests. Solar was installed recently offering nearly free electricity for those seeking off the grid lifestyles. Step inside to find soaring volume ceilings, elegant porcelain tile throughout, and thoughtful details like a breakfast bar, dinette, and formal dining room. French doors lead to the lanai, and the oversized utility room, walk-in closets, extra storage, and a security system add both convenience and peace of mind. The spacious layout flows effortlessly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the home. Outside, enjoy the ultimate Florida lifestyle with a heated pool and spa featuring an upgraded Pebble Tec finish, decorative waterline tiles, and a beautiful brick paver deck. The lush landscaping, mature oak trees, privacy fence, and well-fed irrigation system enhance the serene outdoor setting. A durable metal roof and water softening system round out the extensive list of exterior features. This meticulously maintained property truly has it all—space, upgrades, and location. Port Charlotte continues to earn top honors as one of the best places to retire, as recognized by Where to Retire and Money magazine. Don’t miss your opportunity to own a piece of paradise in one of Florida’s most desirable communities. The lot next door can be purchased on a separate agreement making this a one acre parcel. The house only is subject to a land split as just the house purchase doesn't include the adjacent lot.
