Step Into a Waterfront Retreat Unlike Any Other! Tucked away on the tranquil Countryman Waterway, this distinctive home redefines saltwater canal-front living with its bold character, custom details, and breezy, laid-back charm. Forget the ordinary—this property offers nearly half an acre of elbow room, lush tropical views, and direct boating access to Charlotte Harbor, making it a true haven for those who crave space, serenity, and standout style. From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn in by the unique Spanish-style architecture, curved archways, and inviting front elevation. The long private driveway leads to a traditional stucco façade with mature landscaping and a riprap seawall lining the backyard canal. Inside, vaulted ceilings with rich wood beams and skylights give the living spaces an airy, open feel. The cozy electric fireplace features a deep wood mantle and rustic brick surround with a warm, natural look that adds charm and comfort. The large, central living room flows into a spacious formal dining area and a country-style kitchen that is both functional and welcoming. Granite countertops, oak cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and a wall oven framed in brick create a timeless appeal. A passthrough window connects to an outdoor bar, perfect for casual entertaining under the covered lanai. Step out to the screened lanai overlooking a lush backyard and sparkling canal. An outdoor spa offers a peaceful place to relax after a day on the water, and the expansive yard gives ample space for gardening, recreation, or simply soaking in the Florida sunshine. Thoughtfully laid out for privacy and flexibility, this home features a spacious owner's suite with an ensuite bathroom, complete with dual walk-in closets, granite vanities, a jetted soaking tub, and a separate shower. On the opposite side of the home, the guest bedroom is connected to a full bathroom with a hallway door that can be closed, creating a private guest suite setup—ideal for extended stays or added separation when needed. A bay window in the guest bedroom features a deep ledge with scenic views of the garden and canal—perfect for a reading nook or display space. Outside, a 20x20 detached workshop/shed with power offers 400 sq. ft. of versatile space for hobbies, tools, or storage. The attached garage screened front entryway, and meticulously kept exterior add further appeal. Located just minutes from US 41, shopping, dining, and the vibrant waterfront scene of downtown Punta Gorda, this home offers both privacy and access to the best of Southwest Florida living. Situated on a saltwater canal with direct access to Charlotte Harbor, it's a true boater's and angler's paradise—where snook, redfish, mangrove snapper, tarpon, and other prized saltwater species can be caught right from your own backyard. A short, straight-out boat ride takes you directly to the open waters of Charlotte Harbor. With character you can feel and features that elevate everyday comfort, this is more than just a home—it's a lifestyle designed for those who love the water, the outdoors, and the freedom to enjoy it.
