One of the premier sailboat-access locations in Punta Gorda Isles, this custom waterfront home offers an exceptional setting just minutes to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf beyond. Set between the canal and the Peace River, this home captures a rare balance of privacy, open water views, and immediate access to some of the area’s most idyllic boating. Mornings begin on the canal side, where both the lower lanai and upper balcony share an eastern exposure, capturing soft morning light as the water comes to life. As one of the main access points to open water, you’ll often see boats cruising by, along with the occasional dancing dolphin or manatee. By evening, everything shifts to the west-facing front patio, where wide views of the Peace River set the stage for breathtaking sunsets. Step inside to a dramatic entry with marble floors and a sweeping staircase, with the main living and dining areas unfolding just beyond. Natural light fills the space, highlighting custom details, warm finishes, and a design that feels elevated without being overdone, with water views woven throughout. The kitchen was designed to be used, not just admired. A large center island anchors the space, surrounded by custom cabinetry, granite surfaces, high-end appliances, a wet bar, beverage center, and pot filler, with a prep area featuring a wood-burning fireplace just beyond. The lower-level patio is set up for both quiet afternoons and easy entertaining, with travertine and shell stone decking surrounding a heated saltwater pool with sun shelf. An 80’ concrete dock with a 16,000 lb lift provides quick access to open water. The layout offers 4 bedrooms + office, including two suites, along with 3 full & 2 half baths. Each bedroom enjoys its own water view, with the primary and secondary suites overlooking the Peace River, while the additional bedrooms take in the canal. An elevator connects the garage, main living area, and upper level for added convenience. Upstairs, the 20’ x 40’ indoor-outdoor lounge with a full bar offers panoramic vistas of both the canal and the bustling harbor. With a remote-controlled Kevlar hurricane screen, you can effortlessly shift from open-air to enclosed, creating a setting that feels just as inviting for a quiet evening as for a full gathering. A spiral staircase connects this space to the lower lanai, making it easy to move between levels and keeping everything connected. Improvements in the last 5 years include a metal roof, hurricane-rated windows and doors with electric shutters, A/C, washer/dryer, fridge, pool pump, and lift pillars & motors. A multi-zone interior and exterior sound system, paired with a sophisticated home network, delivers seamless connectivity throughout the home. The two-car garage is EV-ready for your electric vehicle. Furniture is available for separate purchase to ensure a smooth transition. Set within Punta Gorda Isles, known for its winding canals and easy boating access, you’ll love the low-key nautical charm that makes this area so coveted. Miles of scenic walking and biking paths wind throughout the community, connecting you to picturesque waterfront parks and beaches. Spend the day on the water, then head just minutes away for waterfront dining, Fisherman's Village, local shops, or the weekly Farmer's Market. Easy access to I-75 & Hwy 41 makes it easy to explore Sarasota, Fort Myers, and beyond.
