Rare opportunity! If you've been searching for space, privacy, and the freedom to park your boat or RV with no HOA restrictions, this Port Charlotte pool home checks all the boxes. Situated on a .56-acre double lot backing directly to the Myakka State Forest, all you have to do is pour your beverage of choice and relax knowing your backyard view is the Myakka State Forest. You can have your garden, pets, and privacy that is incredibly hard to find. One of the property's standout features is the detached workshop with its own mini-split A/C system. Whether you envision a hobby space, home gym, ultimate man cave, she shed, or music room, this separate space gives you the freedom to make it your own. Inside the home, step through the double glass front doors into the foyer to find formal living and dining rooms, a combined kitchen and family room layout with a casual eat-in kitchen space, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a dedicated office/den (easily a 4th bedroom), plus an oversized primary suite featuring a garden soaking tub and a walk-around shower with dual heads. The interior features crown molding throughout, with tray ceilings highlighting several rooms. The screened, heated pool (resurfaced in 2025) features a sun shelf perfect for chilling on those hot Florida days. Just outside the screen enclosure, you can unwind in the standalone spa. Key updates include a new HVAC (2025), a new roof (2022), rain gutters, hurricane shutters, and updated FEMA flood maps indicating no flood insurance is required. This property offers an ideal location close to everyday shopping, local dining, golf courses, I-75, and nearby boat ramps to the Myakka River. You are also an easy drive from the pristine beaches and world-class tarpon fishing of Boca Grande. Best of all, you are just minutes from historic downtown Punta Gorda, famous for its harborfront parks, lively weekend markets, and waterfront dining at Fishermen's Village. It’s the perfect setup—you get all the fun of the town right down the road and total quiet when you come home. Come take a look!
