Property Description

MULTIPLE OFFERS. This is the kind of opportunity SAVVY BUYERS look for—a great location, a well-maintained home with the freedom to make it their own and a GREAT PRICE. The neighborhood is already established, the home is move-in ready, and you can update the cosmetic finishes over time as your budget and personal style allow, creating sweat equity with every improvement. Built in 1993, this well-maintained CONCRETE BLOCK home offers 1,744 square feet of living area with 3 BEDROOMS, 2 BATHROOMS and a 2-CAR GARAGE. Natural light fills the home and CATHEDRAL CEILINGS are carried out in every room. This home has been lovingly cared for through the years and, while many of the finishes are original, they have been well maintained. Primary bathroom has received a tasteful update with a white and gray marble counter, shaker-style cabinetry and updated fixtures, offering a glimpse of how easily this home can be transformed into something truly special. MANY great features like a METAL ROOF, REPLUMBED WATER LINES, POCKETING SLIDERS and a HURRICANE-REINFORCED GARAGE DOOR. Storm protection is already in place with a combination of ACCORDION SHUTTERS, MANUAL HURRICANE SHUTTERS and a MANUAL KEVLAR ROLL-DOWN SHUTTER protecting the lanai, providing valuable peace of mind during storm season. Step outside and you’ll discover a beautiful oasis—a LARGE, PRIVATE, LUSHLY LANDSCAPED BACKYARD with SOUTHERN REAR EXPOSURE, offering sunshine on your future pool all day long. There’s plenty of room to add the custom pool you’ve always envisioned while still enjoying exceptional privacy created by mature landscaping. Southwest Cape Coral continues to be one of the city’s most sought-after locations because of its established neighborhoods, beautifully maintained homes, nearby parks, library, excellent boating access, outstanding restaurants, shopping and convenient access to both Cape Coral and Fort Myers. Whether you’re headed to waterfront dining, enjoying nearby Gulf beaches, spending the day on the water or simply taking an evening walk through the neighborhood, it’s easy to understand why so many people choose to call Southwest Cape Coral home. Even better, this property is located in a NO FLOOD ZONE, so flood insurance is not required by most lenders. CITY WATER AND SEWER are in place with ALL ASSESSMENTS PAID, there is NO HOA and the neighborhood is both PET FRIENDLY and RENTAL FRIENDLY. FHA and VA financing are welcome, making this one of the best opportunities currently available for buyers looking to purchase a solid home in a fantastic neighborhood at an affordable price. If you’ve been searching for a home with great bones, an outstanding location and unlimited potential, this may be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
