Sailboat-access boating on the Peace River — no fixed bridges between you and open water. This 4-bedroom, 3 1/2-bath home sits on a 196-foot, deep-water frontage lot with a concrete seawall, a private dock with water and electric, and a 12,000 lb boat lift. Load the boat, run down the Peace River and you're in Charlotte Harbor with a clear shot to the Gulf. Inside, 2,784 square feet gives you room to spread out: a split-bedroom layout, primary suite on the main floor, vaulted and high ceilings throughout and a wood-burning fireplace for the rare cool Florida night. The screened, covered lanai looks out over the water toward a mangrove preserve on the far bank, about as private a view as you'll find in Port Charlotte. A new roof (2022) and new pool cage (2023) are already handled, leaving plenty of room to make it your own. Minutes from Port Charlotte Beach Park, with a public boat ramp, fishing pier, playground and picnic pavilions right on Harbor Blvd.
