Not renovated, not rehabbed, re-built! This home is as close to new as you can get with the majority of the structure consisting of new construction built to current code. The slab was enlarged for the addition of a third bedroom and new and existing exterior walls were reinforced. The patio is block construction with engineered roof trusses and could easily be converted to an enclosed Florida Room with little effort or enjoyed as-is. New features include: Open floor plan, all-new supply plumbing, new kitchen and bath waste plumbing, new interior framing throughout, new engineered vaulted roof truss system, completely strapped, new Galvalume metal roof, foam insulation in the ceiling (cleaner, quieter and more efficient than blown-in), impact windows, all-new electrical, inside and out, all new a/c, inside and out, premium water resistant laminate flooring in the main living areas, new solid wood cabinets and granite countertops throughout, new plumbing and electrical fixtures throughout, all new kitchen appliances. The one-and-a-half car garage (with epoxy floor) has washer and dryer hook-ups and plenty of space to add shelves or cabinets for additional interior storage. Located in The Gardens of Gulf Cove, a vibrant deed-restricted community featuring two fully-equipped recreation facilities with a community pool and tennis/pickleball courts that is close to shopping and everything the Port Charlotte area has to offer. If you're looking for a beautiful, contemporary three bedroom home built to withstand the elements, look no further!
