If privacy and space are high on your wish list, you just found the home of your dreams! This pool home is located in the highly popular waterfront community of Gulf Cove. The tropical landscaping, attractive exterior color and accents welcome you home. As you enter through the covered screened entrance, your sparkling heated pool, screened brick paver lanai, and private fenced backyard take center stage through sliding glass doors, just past the Great and Dining rooms. The split bedroom open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, and numerous windows add even more volume to this home, with an abundance of energizing natural light. The spacious kitchen features crisp white cabinets, a closet pantry, a newer stainless dishwasher and microwave, and a breakfast bar that overlooks the Dining and Great rooms, perfect for entertaining! The upgraded lighting fixtures, ceiling fans, and coastal wall colors add a flair rarely found at this price. Have your morning coffee out on the lanai as you plan your day. Located on a quiet street but close to beaches, golf courses, marinas, boat ramps, restaurants, live entertainment, shopping, the Charlotte County Fairgrounds, and the Spring Training Complex for the Tampa Rays, there is always something to do. You are also minutes from the Gulf Cove Waterfront Park where you can enjoy spectacular views of the Myakka River, launch your boat at the community private boat ramp with direct access to the Gulf, host an event under the pavilion, or simply have fun at the playground area if you join the optional HOA! The boat ramp requires a decal purchase. Or float the day away in your heated pool, kept even warmer with your coveted southwest rear exposure. In the evenings, wash off the sand from your day at the beach under your outdoor shower, fire up the grill on your open patio and have a BBQ with friends as you share the memories you made that day. The 2 sheds are the perfect place to store your toys, and the garage is screened. Some furnishings are included, so all you have to do is park your flip flops and start living the salt life!
