Enjoy excellent boating and fishing with direct access to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf via the Myakka River from your dock, complete with water, electric service, and new composite decking.

The updated kitchen features a large center island, abundant granite countertop prep space, stainless steel appliances, and ample wood cabinetry (2023).
