Craftsmanship, scale, and exceptional boating access come together in a Port Charlotte waterfront residence designed with remarkable attention to detail. Set on more than half an acre with 97 feet of waterfront, this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home with a 3 car garage captures serene lagoon and mangrove-lined views from the main living areas and lanai, while direct sailboat access with no bridges leads through Manchester Waterway to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf. A circular driveway introduces an interior where custom design takes center stage. Rich woodwork, distinctive fixtures, custom barn doors, Chicago brick accent walls, and tile flooring throughout give the open-concept living spaces a sophisticated yet comfortable character. Every element feels purposeful, creating a home equally suited for refined entertaining and relaxed everyday living. The gourmet kitchen serves as a striking centerpiece with a seamless island and breakfast bar, dual ovens, pull-out microwave, wine refrigerator, custom coffee bar, and a walk-in pantry finished with a designer door. Nearby, the expansive dining area features a built-in dry bar, while a separate library or office provides an intimate space for work, reading, or quiet retreat. The primary suite offers its own sense of understated luxury with exposed beams, private lanai access, and a spa-inspired bath featuring custom cabinetry, a spacious walk-in shower with dual showerheads, and beautifully selected finishes. Guest accommodations were designed with flexibility in mind. One bedroom includes a Murphy bed, while another area offers two rooms divided by a sliding barn door along with a bathroom, allowing the space to adapt for guests, multigenerational living, an additional bedroom arrangement, or a private sitting area. The outdoor living spaces continue the home's polished design. Updated in 2022, the lanai features new pavers, a heated pool and spa, remote-controlled shades, and a convenient poolside half bath. Beyond the screened living area, the lagoon and mangrove-lined waterway create a peaceful, private backdrop for entertaining, fishing, or simply enjoying the setting. A newer composite dock with a 10,000-pound boat lift and seating area places the boating lifestyle directly at your back door. From here, enjoy no-bridge sailboat access through Manchester Waterway to Charlotte Harbor and beyond to the Gulf. Additional features include a 2022 metal roof, hurricane-impact windows throughout, and no past flooding. Set within a small, deed-restricted HOA community, this distinctive Port Charlotte waterfront home offers a rare combination of custom craftsmanship, more than half an acre of land, 97 feet of waterfront, and exceptional Gulf-access boating.
