Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to your private slice of Southwest Florida paradise—where boating, gardening, and waterfront wildlife come together in one exceptional Charlotte Park property. Situated on an oversized property totaling approximately 0.35 acres (15,300 sq ft), this offering includes an 80’ x 127.5’ homesite PLUS an additional 40’ x 127.7’ parcel. The extra parcel features a shed and RV carport (pole barn style), providing outstanding flexibility for storage, hobbies, or travel trailer parking. Oversized attached garage is an added feature. The home features a standing seam metal roof, impact-resistant windows and doors, updated A/C, and new composite no-rot exterior and garage access doors. Inside, enjoy a spacious open floor plan with ceramic tile flooring throughout, an upgraded kitchen with eat-in space, and a beautiful screened lanai that truly extends your living space outdoors. This inviting lanai offers the perfect setting for morning coffee, dining, or relaxing while overlooking the peaceful canal and lush backyard. Step outside into a one-of-a-kind backyard retreat. The property showcases a thriving, fully stocked raised garden along with an impressive collection of mature fruit and tropical plants including mango, sugar apple, moringa, dwarf coconut palm, banana trees, sugar cane, and guava. Grow your own vegetables year-round with established plantings of lettuce, collard greens, mustard greens, long beans, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and radishes. The backyard overlooks a landlocked brackish canal with tidal flow, creating a natural habitat where you can enjoy fishing and wildlife right from your property. Common catches include blue crab, tarpon, snook, tilapia, and Mayan cichlids, along with frequent sightings of ducks and a variety of coastal birds. Located directly across the street from the community’s private boat ramp (small annual fee), you’ll have quick access to a saltwater canal leading out to Charlotte Harbor, making this an ideal location for boating and fishing enthusiasts. In addition, enjoy nearby access to Punta Gorda’s scenic trail system including the Shreve Street Shared Use Path, which connects to Linear Park and the Harborwalk—offering miles of walking and biking trails to parks, waterfront views, and historic downtown Punta Gorda. For added peace of mind, the home has remained dry through recent hurricanes, and a transferable flood policy is in place. This property offers a rare combination of space, utility, waterfront lifestyle, and connectivity in desirable Charlotte Park.
