Step inside this stunning Gulf-access pool home and immediately feel the pull of the water through the wide sliding glass doors that frame your first view of the canal—leading you straight to the open ocean with no bridges in your way. Imagine your boat waiting on the lift, calling you out for a morning of fishing or a sunset sail with effortless access to the Gulf. Avid boaters, you might like to know that the canal the property has access to is named Quail Canal and intersects with Gloriana Canal. Wake up in the primary suite to the sight of blue skies reflected on the water just beyond your private sliders. Pour your morning coffee in the spacious kitchen, where yet another set of glass doors draws your eyes back to the canal that seems to call from every room. A versatile front space offers the perfect area for a home office or formal dining room, where natural light fills the home with warmth and energy. The primary bath showcases a new vanity, toilet, and refinished soaking tub, perfect for unwinding after a long day. Step outside to the pool area that feels like pure freedom—a wide-open retreat without the confines of a screen cage, where you can soak up the Florida sunshine by day and enjoy the star-filled skies by night. The solar and electric heated pool ensures your water is always the perfect temperature, no matter the season. Follow the lighted walkway to your private dock, where you can dip your toes in the water and watch fish glide by as the sun sets. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat has been freshly painted inside and out and features travertine tile in the main areas, luxury vinyl plank flooring in the bedrooms, and updated lighting and fans throughout. The pool bath offers freshly painted cabinetry and new fixtures. Major updates include a new roof (2023), new water heater (2025), A/C (2016), and a repaired sprinkler system. Whether boating, kayaking, or simply relaxing poolside, this home embodies luxury coastal living—open, serene, and just minutes from open water. Welcome to your Cape Coral waterfront retreat.
