REDUCED!! Gulf Cove Waterfront Home! Enjoy all there is to living on the water, including being entertained by some local manatees. Just sit by the pool or dockside and watch as they frolic and play right behind your home!! Located on the Early Waterway, this lovely, well maintained 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, pool home has direct access to the Myakka River and beyond. Launch your boat from the davits or the 10,000 pound lift and enjoy a day on the water-fishing cruising or just relaxing. You can do it all. This Fero built home features a new roof, new pool cage and new a/c. As you walk through the front doors, you will be greeted by the great view to the pool/lanai and beyond to the water. There is a light and airy tropical feel through out the home, with textured walls resembling palm trees and some hand painted fish. The sliding glass doors in the great room pocket back to create additional space for entertaining or just enjoying the day. The pebble-tech pool is heated for year round use. The breakfast bar in the kitchen is open to the great room. Other features in the kitchen include granite counters and a pantry. The dining area has a great view of the water through a large bay window. In the 2 car garage there is a work bench and extra storage cabinets, perfect for keeping your tools and fishing equipment. This home also features storm windows, shutters and a hurricane impact garage door. Crushed shells in the backyard create low maintenance and more time to relax. There is also a potting shed-like structure where you can work on your potted plants or plant seeds to start a vegetable garden. The community of Gulf Cove is located on the Myakka River between Port Charlotte and Englewood, so shopping, dining, golfing and the beaches are a short drive. The community features included a private park and boat ramp for property owners only, for a nominal yearly fee of $75 for the optional HOA and $75 for a yearly boat ramp pass. Your tropical dream begins at 5244 Early Terrace.
