Property Description
Waterfront Elegance at the Edge of Tranquility! A Singular Residence of Style, Space, and Sunset Views. At the secluded end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this one-of-a-kind single-story estate redefines waterfront living with 114 feet of private canal frontage, no adjacent neighbor on one side, and uninterrupted western views that capture Florida's most breathtaking sunsets. Crafted with intention and distinction, this 3,180-square-foot residence showcases an expansive open floor plan designed to blur the lines between indoor sophistication and outdoor serenity. Walls of windows invite natural light and water views into every corner, turning nature into art. The home's private dock features a 16,000-pound boat lift and three additional deeded feet into the canal, accommodating a beam of up to 15 feet, an exceptional offering for boating enthusiasts seeking direct access and deepwater capability. Inside, the thoughtful layout includes three spacious bedrooms, a dedicated office, a bonus room, and a formal dining room, each finished with elevated design details. The owner's retreat is a sanctuary unto itself, boasting a spa-inspired bath, and an oversized custom closet that could rival a boutique showroom. Every element has been curated for both form and function. Luxury vinyl flooring flows throughout, custom wood-paneled exterior ceilings lend warmth and architectural interest. Plantation shutters and decorative exterior shutters add timeless elegance. An oversized driveway ensures comfort and convenience for hosting. Outdoor living is equally exceptional with an extended lanai, fully appointed outdoor kitchen, and a private, fenced-in side yard, a rare expanse perfect for entertaining or future pool addition (professional designs available). A new roof and a collection of bespoke enhancements make this property truly move-in ready, while its location, privacy, and waterfront access make it unforgettable. For those seeking quiet luxury with seamless water access, this residence is the one!
