MOTIVATED SELLER! Imagine waking up each morning to the gentle sway of palm trees and the scent of salt air drifting in from the Gulf. Tucked into the peaceful Port of the Islands community, this 3-bedroom + den, 3-bath home offers 1,827 square feet of light-filled, coastal-inspired living, and its all just steps from your private dock.

Inside, the open-concept layout is perfect for entertaining or relaxing after a day on the water. The kitchen is the heart of the home, now featuring all new Bill Smith stainless steel appliances: stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, washer, and dryer, with over two years remaining on a transferable 5-year warranty. Fresh one-year-old tile flooring anchors the space, flowing effortlessly into vaulted living areas adorned with rich Brazilian cherry wood flooring (4 years old) and a custom artist Marty Wisher coastal mural with hand-painted kitchen wall effects. A newly remodeled master bath and remodeled guest bath, both with warranties on the glass, add a touch of modern luxury. Practical updates continue throughout: a 2-year-old Admiral water heater, 2-year-old Admiral air conditioner, fresh interior paint (1 year), new staircase carpeting, and smart storage solutions under the stairs and above the garage.

Step outside to your screened lanai, recently upgraded with noseeum mesh to maximize comfort, and enjoy a front-row seat to spectacular sunsets and soothing ocean breezes. For peace of mind, the home is equipped with a power transfer switch and a brand-new generator, along with storm shutters throughout, including convenient power shutters on the large windows and lanai.

With direct water access to the legendary 10,000 Islands, this is a boaters dream come true. Cast off from your 5-ton boat lift (3 years old, accommodates up to 28), explore endless mangrove-lined backwaters, or cruise out to white sand beaches where dolphins play. A brand-new seawall, manicured tropical landscaping, and tranquil canal views make the outdoor setting feel like a private retreat.

As a final bonus, this residence offers the lowest condo fees for a 3-bedroom, 3-bath in the Port. Whether youre looking for a weekend escape or a full-time home that embraces the Southwest Florida lifestyle, this property checks all the boxes for waterfront living, wrapped in natural beauty and serenity.
