Property Description
This home is engineered for both ultimate peace of mind and exceptional energy efficiency. It features a massive 21 kWh solar array (41 panels), newly installed 2025 hurricane impact windows, and a 50-amp external circuit ready for a generator. Having experienced no flooding during recent major hurricanes, the property also benefits from an inexpensive, fully transferable flood insurance policy.
Step inside to discover a peaceful, open living space highlighted by warm hardwood floors and a gorgeously renovated kitchen equipped with solid wood cabinets and granite countertops. Behind the scenes, everyday comfort is elevated by an on-demand propane water heater, a comprehensive water softener and sulfur filtration system, and recently serviced dual A/C units.
Outside, the freshly painted exterior (2025) welcomes you into a truly undisturbed retreat. Surrounded by spectacular, lush landscaping that serves as a natural privacy screen, the outdoor living space features a heated, screen-enclosed saltwater pool. Two soothing waterfall features amplify the feeling of your own hidden sanctuary. Whether you are savoring a quiet morning listening to the waterfalls, hitting the links, taking a neighborhood golf cart cruise, or launching the boat for a day on the water, this property delivers the ultimate tranquil Southwest Florida lifestyle. This type of home is hard to come by—book your private showing today!
