Property Description
Step into timeless charm with this beautifully preserved Key West-style bungalow tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in the Bay Shores neighborhood of Punta Gorda. Built in 1949, this two-bedroom home captures the essence of character and craftsmanship with its stone fireplace, exposed brick archways, luxury vinyl flooring, and warm wood cabinetry. The architectural detail is as unique as it is inviting-every room offers something special. The exterior is just as impressive, with a covered front porch perfect for your morning coffee and an expansive fenced backyard that borders a peaceful greenbelt-offering privacy, space to garden or play, and room to entertain. Enjoy the Florida lifestyle year-round with screened and open-air porch spaces that invite you to relax and unwind. This home is only minutes from Darst Park and the public boat ramp, providing direct access to the Peace River and Charlotte Harbor-famous for world-class fishing, boating, and kayaking. Just a short drive puts you in the heart of downtown Punta Gorda or across the bridge to Port Charlotte's Town Center with its variety of restaurants, shopping, and entertainment options. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby courses, and those dreaming of the coast will love being within easy reach of Gulf beaches. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, winter escape, or a place to soak up Southwest Florida's natural beauty and community charm, this home offers it all.
