Property Description
The most affordable true waterfront home in Overbrook Gardens offering sailboat water, a private dock with boat lift, and direct boating access to Lemon Bay, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Gulf, with NO FIXED BRIDGES TO THE GULF. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home provides 1,518 square feet of living space on 75 feet of waterfront with deep water access, allowing you to keep your boat in the water and ready to go whenever the Gulf calls. It includes a 17' x 6' private dock equipped with water and electric, plus a 10,000lb boat lift for easy boating, fishing, and exploring the waterways. The split-bedroom floor plan offers privacy with the master and guest bedrooms separated for comfort. Hurricane impact windows and doors are installed throughout. The kitchen sits facing the back overlooking the water view, so you can prepare meals while watching the water. It opens to the family area, while the main living room is positioned toward the front and partially separated for a practical layout. Interior highlights include granite countertops, solid wood cabinets, luxury vinyl plank flooring in the main living areas, tile flooring in the bathrooms, and an operational wood-burning brick fireplace, a rare touch in Florida homes. Outside, the screened rear porch features custom stamped concrete flooring that continues along the concrete sidewalk/path leading directly to the dock. The driveway and walkway to the front door also have matching custom stamped concrete for a cohesive look. The large one-car garage (13' x 25') has room to add storage or a workbench. In Overbrook Gardens, a boating-focused community with a relaxed, golf cart and bike-friendly vibe, the optional low-cost HOA provides access to a private community boat ramp. Location puts you just 2 miles from Manasota Beach and a short drive to more Manasota Key beaches, plus easy reach to Historic Dearborn Street dining and shopping in Old Englewood Village, Wellen Park, and downtown Venice. This home delivers solid Florida living with deep waterfront, sailboat access, convenient boating, and everyday coastal wildlife right at your doorstep.
