Two blocks from the bay, five miles to the beach, and just moments from the downtown Englewood area’s restaurants and shopping—this Craftsman-style home offers an unbeatable location paired with exceptional quality and timeless charm.
Welcome to this beautifully crafted residence built in 2019 by Scott Knapp of Capitol Builders, featuring solid block and stucco construction on a stem wall with a 12'7" elevation. Designed under the latest hurricane standards, this home provides peace of mind with its high elevation and the freedom of no HOA restrictions.
Step inside to a bright, open, split floor plan enhanced by tile flooring throughout and stylish finishes at every turn. The kitchen impresses with white wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a built-in closet pantry, and a vaulted ceiling that opens seamlessly to the spacious great room. The primary suite offers refined comfort with a tray ceiling accented by crown molding, two closets, and a frameless glass shower. Additional interior features include ceiling fans in all bedrooms and the great room, double-pane Low-E aluminum windows with shutters, and included window treatments for added convenience.
Enjoy outdoor living on both the inviting front porch and the screened back porch overlooking nearly half an acre of lush privacy. The .45-acre property is graced with mature trees, fruit trees, bamboo, and a mostly fenced yard—perfect for pets, gardening, or creating your own backyard retreat. Garden boxes, a 10x16 storage shed, and a potting shed offer ample space for hobbies, tools, and even chickens if you desire. The irrigation system keeps the landscaping vibrant year-round.
Relax and entertain around the heated saltwater pool (12x24) installed in 2022, complete with a spacious 30x34 screened cage with two access doors, plus a solar outdoor shower—ideal after a refreshing swim. Additional upgrades include twice-yearly AC service by Air Tech and a new drainage pipe beneath the concrete driveway.
Nestled in a wonderful historic neighborhood known for its friendly atmosphere, this home places you within walking distance of Dearborn Street’s shops and restaurants and close to an array of beloved Englewood amenities: the Historic District, Freedom Boat Club, Pioneer Plaza, Indian Mound Park, Cherokee Street Park, Englewood Veterans Memorial and Freedom Pavilion, Public Boat Ramp, Englewood Recreation Center, Lemon Bay Park and Environmental Center, and the popular Thursday Farmer’s Market.
