It has 117 ft. of non-obstructed sandy shore line, southern exposure, and direct access to Charlotte Harbor. The house was completely remodeled in 2005. More recently replaced mechanicals are: A/C 4yrs, roof 6yrs, H2O heater 5yrs, and septic system 5yrs. As you enter the property, you are greeted by the fenced wooded oasis, consisting of numerous mature trees, vegetation and pathways. Approaching the entrance to the home you will see an impressive custom designed waterfall cascading into a pool as well as individual garden areas enclosed by natural rock formations. A dedicated well operates the irrigation system keeping the lush landscaping looking lovely year-round. As soon as you walk in the house your eyes are immediately drawn to the spectacular view of The Peace River. Every window of this home has breathtaking views of the outdoors. The open concept floor plan is graced with 20 inch, diagonally arranged, porcelain tile throughout. The spacious kitchen is equipped with ample maple wood cupboards.

The Bonus room (14X20) has it's own separate entrance. This room is currently being used as a sitting area but can easily be used as a 4th bedroom as it has it's own walk-in closet. The oversized 9' wide window provides an awesome view of the woods and pathways. Both bathrooms have glass and stone showers and granite counter tops. The laundry room has a beautiful travertine stone counter top sitting above the washer/dryer as well as an adjacent large storage closet.

The exterior of the lanai is surrounded by custom-formed rock and flower beds. In addition there is a custom designed fireplace inspired by The Flintstones as well as a bench for viewing sunrises, sunsets, and particularly the moon that rises over the river which makes the river light up and glisten.
