One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Beyond the gates of Peace River Club, a private enclave blending the charm of Old Florida with the elegance of country estate living, lies a home that captures both sophistication and a sense of retreat. Here, winding streets lined with new estate-style residences lead to wide skies and peaceful preserves, while the water calls from your assigned boat slip-just to explore the back waters of Charlotte Harbor and the Peace River or for day trips to the Gulf of Mexico and its world-class fishing waters. Built in 2021, this 3 bedroom plus den, 3 bath pool home was designed for entertaining at its best. Inside, soaring 12-foot ceilings—both tray and coffered—feature striking contrast-painted insets, while 8-foot doors further enhance the scale of each room. Triple pocket sliding glass doors seamlessly blend the living area with the outdoors, expanding the sense of space and bringing natural light across every detail. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen is an entertainer's focal point. A 7.5-foot center island offers a generous stage for culinary creations or casual dining, while an L-shaped counter with its own wine refrigerator makes the perfect buffet-style serving station. Viking appliances elevate every meal-including a 6-burner gas stove, built-in microwave, convection oven, warming oven, a 72” refrigerator/freezer, and additional wine refrigeration. Upgraded granite counters, a stylish tile backsplash, and tall cabinetry frame the space with beauty and function. The master suite is a sanctuary, complete with tray ceiling, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-worthy bath. Here, a wraparound walk-in shower with a large bench invites relaxation, while thoughtful details make everyday living feel indulgent. Two additional spacious guest rooms, each with their own updated baths, offer comfort and privacy. Outdoors, lush landscaping sets the tone for resort-style living. The southern-facing lanai is screened with fine 20/20 mesh to keep even no-see-ums away, and it showcases a heated saltwater pool and spa as the centerpiece. The patio is already plumbed and fitted with a 42” Viking exhaust hood—ready for you to design a covered summer kitchen and entertain guests poolside. Practical features abound as well: a Generac propane generator powered by a 500-gallon underground tank, an epoxy-finished garage air conditioned 3 car garage, with oversized 9-foot-wide doors for large trucks or boats, a lawn/garden irrigation system, and USB outlets thoughtfully placed throughout. Security and peace of mind come built-in with PGT impact windows and doors, a whole-home R.O. water system, and a full exterior surveillance system. Peace River Club itself is more than a neighborhood-it's a destination. A deed-restricted, gated community with a clubhouse, boat ramp, hibachi grills, and covered picnic areas along the water, it offers the rare balance of privacy, natural beauty, and connection. Just minutes from Punta Gorda's historic downtown, dining, and shopping, this is where “home” becomes a lifestyle.
