1648 Villa CT

Expansive converging waterway views highlight this meticulously maintained canal-front residence, where a new seawall provides a fresh foundation for waterfront living. With Gulf access and spectacular water views from the main living areas, this three-bedroom-plus-den, two-bath home prioritizes the island's boating and outdoor lifestyle. Natural light fills the open living room through a broad glass slider topped by transom windows, while 12-foot volume ceilings enhance the open and airy atmosphere, drawing the eye across the lanai, pool and converging canals beyond. Built-in shelving, crown molding, recessed lighting, white plantation shutters and tile flooring add refined architectural detail, while the adjoining kitchen and dining areas create an effortless flow for entertaining. The kitchen features white cabinetry, a glass tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and a four-seat breakfast bar. The waterfront connection continues into the primary suite, where a glass slider flanked by additional windows frames pool and canal views and provides direct lanai access. A tray ceiling with backlit crown molding adds dimension, while the en-suite bath offers dual white vanities with under-cabinet lighting separated by a makeup counter, a seamless-glass walk-in shower, a large soaking tub and linen storage. The guest bath doubles as a convenient pool bath with direct outdoor access and a seamless-glass walk-in shower. A private den or office just off the living room is finished with French doors, a tray ceiling and a bank of windows overlooking the lush landscaping. Designed to maximize its canal setting, the outdoor living area offers covered dining and lounge spaces overlooking the pool, spa and converging waterways. Diagonal tile flooring extends throughout the covered lanai, complemented by a double tray ceiling with recessed lighting and fans, while the tall mansard-style screen enclosure enhances the spacious, open-air setting and preserves the impressive water views. The pool and spa are complemented by a new pump and heater with Aqualink controls installed in 2022. A paver driveway, professionally landscaped grounds and Florida Mediterranean architecture complete the exterior presentation. The property also boasts a strong rental history, offering an attractive opportunity for personal use and potential investment. A transferable flood insurance policy with a low annual premium provides an additional benefit for the next owner.
