WATERFRONT POOL HOME WITH DIRECT GULF ACCESS - Live the Florida waterfront lifestyle in this completely remodeled 3-bedroom (plus a family room), 2-bath pool home located on a cul-de-sac with low traffic. It's only a minute from the Caloosahatchee River on a wide canal. The Davis public boat ramp is at the other end of the canal, so there's easy access if you need to remove your boat.

Outdoor features include a new roof (2021), a well manicured lawn with mature landscaping, a screened pool (all new equipment and heat pump), an open patio, a composite dock with a covered boat lift (new motor), and a seawall. The air conditioner is new, having just been replaced in July, 2025. Indoors, you will find many upgrades, including completely remodeled kitchen and bathrooms (granite countertops, new cabinets), all new 24" tile flooring, top-notch trim features, and fresh paint inside and out. For your peace of mind, the home features impact windows and doors, and newly installed (September, 2025) engineered flood gates to protect the home from future flooding. The photos include a snap of the flood gates on the front door and garage door. The flood gates are designed to protect the home from flooding just beyond the watermark made by Ian.
