The best of Southwest Florida awaits at this canal-front oasis in Rotonda West. The bright interior of this 2,200-square-foot home features an open floor plan and an opportunity for authentic indoor/outdoor living, with two walls of glass doors that open onto the covered pool deck. 

Start your day with coffee on the lanai or swim a few laps in the beautifully landscaped pool. At breakfast time, the well-equipped kitchen offers a full suite of stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space to keep the chef happy. Dine together alfresco at the table on the terrace. 

The pristine Gulf beaches of Boca Grande, Manasota Key, and Englewood are just minutes away. Beach umbrellas, beach chairs, toys, and two kayaks are available to help you make the most of a day on the sand. Five golf courses, a community park with tennis courts (tennis balls and rackets are in the garage), a playground, and walking trails are all located in your neighborhood. You can explore on two wheels thanks to the two adult bicycles in the garage. 

Want to stay closer to home? Pull up a chaise at the pool or bring your fishing rod and while away the afternoon on the dock, fishing for bass, tilapia, snook, or catfish in Pebble Beach Creek, just behind the home. In the evening, lots of good restaurants are nearby, or fire up the gas grill on the lanai. Pull up one of the swivel chairs around the firepit for after-dinner conversation, or get comfy on the sectional in front of the 75-inch smart TV, which features a Roku for streaming. Head off to a plush, pillowtop, reclining BeautyRest bed with one perfect vacation day behind you and another in store for tomorrow.

Good Place

The location was good, the floor plan was good. Pool was OK, not heated, it would have been better if it was heated. I wish the Welcome Book offered more information about the house, its contents, and what is available for a family to use and more information on the surrounding area. The house description we thought was somewhat lacking, especially the description of the one of the beds as being a queen size bed. It was a full size bed. Other than that we had a good time!

Peaceful paradise

First time staying here and it won’t be the last. The house was spacious, helpful with having teenage kids! The outdoor space was amazing, the comfortable chairs around the fire pit an added bonus.
