Waterfront Home on Fresh Water Canal SW Florida

Deep Water Canal Home in the country with a view of the Caloosahatchee River. Lots of room. Approx. 2676 sq. ft. home with 3 bedroom 2 bath layout – can be converted into duplex or mother-in-law apartment. Plenty of room for an entertainment theater, gallery or craft room. House consists of a high quality manufactured home and 3 wood frame additions. 3 garages and 2 outside decks, plus 100 feet of dock with electric and water. Two-level dock has dinghy height dock on one end.

House has cathedral ceilings, drywall with wallpapered walls, thermopane windows on South and West side of the house, a huge master bath with a Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, double sinks, and walk-in closet. Built-in entertainment cabinet in the family room and built-in china cabinet in the dining room. Exceptional storage, including 2 large pantries and 2 linen closets in addition to a walk-in closet for each bedroom. Ceiling fans with lights, track lights and dining room hanging fixture inside, motion lights outside. The roof and air conditioner are new in the past 4 years. All appliances go with the home, as well as the furniture currently in the home.

The garages are set up so that one of the east garages can be closed for an insulated and air conditioned workshop – painting, sanding, welding, etc. - without getting the car in the other part dirty. The third garage could easily be accessed from the west room of the house by adding a door and 3 steps. There are three outside access doors.

The lot has its own well and septic system. It is outside the adjacent subdivision and is not subject to restrictions other than Glades County.

There are many mature palms and a large bottle brush tree, as well as bougainvillea in many colors. Since we are so close to the water (the canal is on the north side of the house and the Caloosahatchee River is on the south) we rarely get a killing frost. The area is surrounded by cattle ranches and orange groves.

And the best part is, although you can take your boat anywhere in the world from our dock, we are far enough inland to be protected from the brunt of the hurricanes. It is 50 miles to Ft. Myers, but several miles further to the Gulf of Mexico. The closet town is LaBelle, which is a fast growing community on Hwy. SR 80, which runs from Ft. Myers (4 lane)  to West Palm Beach.

We are interested in a partial trade for lake or riverfront in Michigan, and will consider a contract with a substantial down payment.
