The home has been beautifully updated and showcases elegant tile flooring throughout, offering great style and easy maintenance. The new stone countertops and cabinets are timeless, boast elegance, and maintain durability. The heart of the home features stainless steel kitchen appliances and new washer and dryer. The roof, water heater, and raised A/C were new in 2022. Almost everything about this home has been fully updated! Step outside from the living room or from two of the bedrooms to the large oasis, complete with a sparkling deep heated pool and a newly renovated spa that flows into the pool – ideal for private relaxation and rejuvenation. A portion of the lanai is covered and ideal for outdoor seating and dining; the larger poolside area provides great space to lounge in the sun and take in the views of the canal, sunrises, and sunsets.

Pine Island Sound and the Gulf itself are mere minutes away, providing memorable trips to Sanibel, uncrowded beaches, and sunset cruises so close to home. Fish in the Tarpon Capitol of the world, and catch Redfish, snook, and Seatrout along the mangroves of Pine Island Sound. Watch dolphins play and manatees lounge right under your dock! Enjoy quaint shops, nearby grocers, and excellent waterfront dining with fresh faire, delicious refreshments, and live entertainment. Soak in the historic culture of Pine Island and its nature preserves. This is known as “Old Florida” so serene and quiet, yet so conveniently located to airports, golf courses, and all that Ft.
