Set on a double lot, the residence boasts three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, with an additional half bath in the garage. The OPEN FLOOR PLAN effortlessly connects the living room, kitchen, and dining areas, creating a warm and inviting space. The kitchen is a standout, featuring a FOLDING WALL OF GLASS seamlessly blending the indoor living area with the screened, in-ground heated pool and outdoor space for an authentic indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Most of the home’s furnishings are included, adding convenience for the new owner. Bedroom 3 has its own bath and outside entrance, which could serve as a convenient mother-in-law suite. A detached three-car garage on the additional lot includes an air-conditioned space that serves as a storage or a game room with POOL TABLE. This is a dream Man-Cave. The garage and workshop bays have a built in shop-vac vacuum system for the woodworker or handyman. The surrounding landscaped area is adorned with a beautiful BUTTERFLY GARDEN and includes an outdoor fire-pit area, enhancing the property’s natural charm. An additional storage building provides even more storage space and features a built in exhaust fan. The long-lasting METAL ROOFS on both the home and the garage ensure durability and peace of mind.

For boating enthusiasts, the community boat ramp offers direct access to Jim Long Lake, Peace River, Charlotte Harbor, and the Gulf, allowing for a variety of fishing and recreational activities. The property also includes a lot across the street with a separate parcel number, which has five boat slips along a canal that extends from the lake to Ridgecrest Drive, offering further convenience (note that some dredging work may be needed). Additional boat slips are owned by other homeowners in the Peace River Shores community. To enhance your experience, be sure to visit the members-only boat ramp, picnic area, and clubhouse. With no hurricane damage or history of flooding, this home is move-in ready and set to become your own private retreat.
