Evenings stretch a little longer when home feels like a retreat. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul de sac in Burnt Store Lakes, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath residence with over 2,000 square feet offers the kind of space that makes everyday living feel unrushed and well considered. Inside, the open floor plan keeps everything connected. Nearly 11ft ceilings lift the main living areas, and diagonal tile flooring throughout creates a clean, low maintenance foundation that is as practical as it is polished. Two inviting front rooms offer flexibility for a formal dining space, reading lounge, or recreational space when friends are in town. The kitchen naturally becomes the gathering spot. A striking 5x7 marble topped island anchors the space, offering generous prep area for casual lunches or full holiday spreads. Multiple dining options make it easy to host a relaxed brunch or an intimate dinner. Sliding glass doors open wide to the screened lanai, where indoor living flows seamlessly outside. There is ample covered space with a roll down awning for shaded seating while sitting poolside. The heated 6ft deep pool and spa create a private retreat. With a 2024 pool pump and heater already in place, the water is ready when you are. The lake views serve as a peaceful backdrop, adding depth and calm without demanding upkeep. The primary suite offers its own connection to the outdoors, with sliding doors to the lanai and room for a comfortable seating area overlooking the water. Two guest bedrooms and a full guest bath ensure visitors feel at home while still giving everyone their own space. Major updates provide confidence and simplicity, including a 2022 roof and AC, 2025 water heater, new Bahama shutters, fresh exterior landscaping, and a two car garage. It is a home that feels cared for and ready for its next chapter. Beyond your front door, Burnt Store Lakes offers walking trails, a playground, gazebo, kayak launch, and maintained roads within this deed restricted community positioned between Punta Gorda and Cape Coral. Nearby Burnt Store Marina adds access to golf, tennis, pickleball, fitness facilities, waterfront dining, and the largest marina in Southwest Florida, while charming downtown Punta Gorda delivers even more dining and recreation. This is the kind of home where days unfold comfortably, maintenance stays manageable, and time can be spent exactly where it should be, enjoying your Florida home.
