About this home

A hard-to-find opportunity to own one of Punta Gorda's most distinctive residences in the heart of the Historic District, walking distance to Downtown PG shopping, restaurants, Fisherman's Village, parks, and grocery stores! Situated on an large homesite framed by mature royal palms and tropical landscaping, this custom-built Southern-inspired estate combines timeless architectural character with modern comfort. From the moment you arrive, the home's commanding presence is undeniable. Sweeping wraparound porches, elevated construction, a NEW Metal roof in 2023, and classic architectural detailing create a striking first impression rarely found in Southwest Florida. Inside, rich hardwood flooring, custom wood trim, high ceilings, and light-filled living spaces showcase craftsmanship that has become increasingly difficult to find. The grand living room serves as the centerpiece of the home, featuring a beautiful WOOD-BURNING fireplace, expansive gathering space, and an inviting atmosphere perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The chef's dream kitchen offers extensive custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a large center island, generous storage, and an adjoining dining area designed for family gatherings and holiday celebrations. The private owner's retreat is a sanctuary of its own, highlighted by a beautifully renovated spa-inspired bathroom featuring elegant finishes, a walk-in glass shower, and timeless design. Additional guest bedrooms provide comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike. Outside, the oversized property offers exceptional flexibility and privacy, while the detached garage (perfect for an ADU or detached Mother-In-Law Suite) and extended driveway provide ample parking and storage. The wraparound porch creates the perfect setting to enjoy morning coffee beneath the palms, evening sunsets, or the vibrant atmosphere of one of Southwest Florida's most beloved waterfront communities. Few homes successfully blend historic district charm, architectural significance, modern updates, and walkable downtown living. This exceptional residence delivers all four, creating a lifestyle that is as unique as the property itself. Experience the character, elegance, and timeless appeal of Historic Punta Gorda living at its finest.
