UPDATED WATERFRONT POOL HOME W/RARE AIR-CONDITIONED 4-CAR GARAGE, LONG CANAL VIEW, SOUTHERN EXPOSURE & QUICK SAIL ACCESS VIA BUCKLEY'S PASS - This meticulously upgraded 3 bed/2 bath home in Punta Gorda Isles checks all the boxes for serious boaters and those seeking the ultimate Florida lifestyle. Located on a premium southern-exposure lot, the home offers a panoramic view straight down a wide canal culminating at the perimeter waterway--perfect for catching the lighted holiday boat parade each year as it floats by. Depending on your destination, you can reach open water two ways from your private dock w/10,000 lb boat lift -- either through Buckley's Pass or the scenic route along the perimeter canal via Ponce Inlet. The oversized, tandem-style 4-car garage is a true standout, featuring 10-ft ceilings, a dedicated mini-split A/C, epoxy flooring & ample space for vehicles, gear, hobbies or weekend projects. Step inside to a light-filled, contemporary interior with soaring ceilings & updated finishes throughout. The layout is open & effortless, with a seamless flow between the great room, formal dining area, & family room--perfect for entertaining or just enjoying the spaciousness. A wall of glass sliders opens wide to the lanai, blurring the line between indoors & out. At the heart of the home, the updated kitchen will impress. It's outfitted with custom wood cabinetry, sleek quartz counters, a dual-fuel oven with gas cooktop, glass tile backsplash, walk-in pantry, & a generous breakfast bar that doubles as the perfect gathering spot. The master suite feels like a retreat, complete with cathedral ceilings, its own sitting area with lanai access, an oversized walk-in closet designed for optimal storage, & a spa-inspired bath featuring dual sinks set in a natural cherry vanity, quartz countertops, a luxurious walk-in shower with both rain and handheld shower heads, & a private water closet. The split-bedroom layout ensures privacy, with two spacious guest rooms offering water views--one with direct access to the lanai. The guest bath has been stylishly renovated & also functions as a pool bath. Laundry doesn't get overlooked either: the updated utility room includes shaker-style cabinetry, dual storage closets & room for high-efficiency washer/dryer. Outside, the screened lanai wraps around the in-ground pool, which was resurfaced in 2024 with new waterline tile & a refinished deck. It's the perfect space to unwind or entertain, all while soaking in that long water view. Keep your boat docked in the backyard. Water & electric hook-ups are available dockside. Additional upgrades include fresh interior and exterior paint, replumbed overhead piping, app-controlled irrigation, LED lighting, Levelor remote-controlled blinds, & a Ring security system. The home also offers whole-house hurricane protection w/additional storm barrier at garage. Mature tropical landscaping surrounds the home w/new sod installed in 2023. Great location on a quiet street yet still close to everything. Miles of sidewalks in PGI connect you to numerous parks, St Andrews South golf course, Fishermen's Village, the Isles Yacht Club & historic downtown. Whether walking, biking, or driving, you'll find yourself close to shopping, dining, & entertainment. If you're looking for that rare combination of serious boating access, upgraded interior spaces, & a garage that can hold it all--this home delivers. Make an appointment to see it today.
