    What's special

    Heated pool and spaWrap around dockNew washer and dryerElegant tile flooring throughoutStainless steel kitchen appliances
    Waterfront luxury, move-in ready — and just minutes to the Gulf! New pool liner & lanai screen! This updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath Saint James City home offers a heated pool & spa, deep-water canal with sailboat access, and a 10,000-lb lift (boat on lift is negotiable). Nearly everything is new, from the roof to the kitchen — all that’s missing is you. Welcome to your waterfront paradise on one of the most desirable canals in the quiet, friendly neighborhood of Saint James City. There is no HOA or CDD with this three bedroom, two bath home and property. 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. Boating enthusiasts will love the 10,000 lb boat lift and the wrap around dock. The deep water canal provides direct sailboat access and is ideal for every boating, kayaking and fishing interest. 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. Myers and Cape Coral offer within a short drive. This property is a fantastic home and an incredible investment opportunity at a great price. Don’t miss out on this rare gem – schedule your private tour today and consider living the Southwest Florida dream!
