This darling, concrete block, cottage-like dream home lives much larger than square footage shows and is on a saltwater canal leading to the Charlotte Harbor and beyond with many extras including a security system, whole-house hurricane shutters, plantation shutters and French door opening to the sparkling pool. Inside one finds a very functional galley kitchen with granite countertops, propane gas stove/oven, dishwasher, garbage disposal, refrigerator/freezer and more than ample counter space. Beyond, there is a large living room/dining room combination and a separate family room with wood-burning fireplace and French doors leading to the pool and canal. Next to the kitchen is a utility room with washer/dryer and closet. The ensuite master bedroom is spacious with 2 double closets and tiled shower. Two other bedrooms and an additional full bath complete the floor plan. Outside one finds a large fully screened terrace off the kitchen that is perfect for morning coffee, lunch, or barbeque dinner. A fully fenced yard will be perfect for your grandchildren, Fluffy or Fido. The backyard leading to the canal is lushly landscaped and presents the perfect tropical scene. This is a home that you will really call home for years to come and would be perfect for the seasonal owner, single person or retirees that want a lovely home on a canal on a quiet street.
