Under contract-accepting backup offers. DIRECT GULF ACCESS POOL HOME IN THE HEART OF SW CAPE—NO LOCKS OR BRIDGES! Set on a quiet cul-de-sac and wrapped in lush, mature landscaping, this beautifully updated waterfront home delivers exceptional privacy, comfort, and effortless boating, offering deep water access with a 10,000-lb lift featuring brand-new motors (2025), a wraparound dock, and two davits for jet skis—all just a scenic 15-minute ride to open water. Inside, the light-filled layout showcases luxury vinyl plank flooring (2023), fresh interior paint (2023), and inviting architectural details including vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, skylights, and a custom artisan fireplace that anchors the living space with coastal charm. The remodeled kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances (2024), reverse-osmosis filtration (2023), and a generous pass-through window for easy entertaining. Nearly every room opens to the expansive lanai where an oversized saltwater pool—resurfaced in 2023—sits beneath a new “no-see-um” cage (2023) with upgraded lighting, multiple seating zones, and exceptionally private sightlines created by tall palms, dense tropical plantings, and a strategic landscape design that shields the pool and lanai from neighboring views, clothing optional! The primary suite offers pool views, lanai access, and a beautifully updated bath with dual sinks, quartz counters, modern fixtures, and nautical-inspired lighting, while the guest wing includes a renovated pool bath with a custom marble shower (2023) and spacious guest rooms, one with direct pool access. **Brand NEW impact windows being installed prior to closing. Major upgrades include new HVAC and ductwork (2023), new plumbing system (2023), resealed lanai and pool deck (2024), new 50-gallon water heater (2023), new pedestal washer/dryer (2023), new paver driveway (2022), new pool vacuum (2023), and a durable 25-year shingle roof (2017). Outside, a charming bird path with arched trellises and shaded seating areas enhances the peaceful canal setting, all just minutes from Tarpon Point, Cape Harbour, kayak rentals, and a relaxing 10-minute bike ride to Rotary Park. Flood insurance is fully paid through February 2026 and transferable.
