7731 Bocilla Lane, Apt 10 $549,000

Boat, fish, and live the island lifestyle—right from your own backyard. If you’ve been dreaming about keeping your boat just steps from your door and being on the open waters of Charlotte Harbor within minutes, this is the one. Tucked away at the quiet north end of Pine Island in Bokeelia, Marina Gardens is a hidden gem with only 17 residences, surrounded by water and immersed in the natural beauty that makes island living so special. This beautifully updated waterfront condo is truly move-in ready and offers peace of mind with numerous recent upgrades, including hurricane shutters, a completely updated screened lanai with new frame, flooring and screens, resurfaced and waterproofed balconies, new patio, skylight, water heater, and more. But what truly sets this property apart is the boating and fishing lifestyle. Step outside to your private dock with a 10,000 lb boat lift, complete with water and electric, and you’re just minutes from some of the best fishing in Southwest Florida. Cruise effortlessly to Charlotte Harbor, explore the peaceful backwaters of Jug Creek, or stop by Four Winds Marina for fuel and supplies. You can even dock and dine at Jug Creek Marina and Fish House—a true local favorite. Every day here feels like a retreat. Watch dolphins and manatees glide by, see ospreys and pelicans overhead, and take in the peaceful mangrove views from your upstairs balcony, screened lanai, or patio below. Marina Gardens residents also enjoy a beautifully maintained community pool with high-end furnishings and well-kept facilities—perfect for relaxing after a day on the water. The community is also scheduled for fresh exterior paint in a beautiful coastal blue in the coming year, adding to its charm and curb appeal. The HOA provides exceptional value by covering pool and pool house, flood insurance, exterior maintenance, seawall, docks, ramps, septic, landscaping, and street maintenance, making this an easy, low-maintenance way to enjoy waterfront living. If you’ve been searching for a place where you can truly embrace the Southwest Florida waterfront lifestyle—this is it.
