WHAT IF the SMARTEST HOME ON THE MARKET isn't the one with someone else's expensive remodel…but the one that gives YOU the OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD EQUITY from day one? If you've been waiting for a home where the major expenses have already been taken care of while leaving room to make it uniquely yours, your search may be over. Tucked away off the beaten path in an area surrounded by MANY NEWER HOMES, this 4 BEDROOM, 2 BATH home offers 1,712 square feet of comfortable living space with a GREAT ROOM floor plan, CATHEDRAL CEILINGS, and spacious 2-CAR GARAGE. A SCREENED, UNDER-TRUSS LANAI with NEW SCREENS provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy Southwest Florida's year-round sunshine. Before you compare this home to others, consider what's already been done for you. The BIG-TICKET IMPROVEMENTS are complete with a NEW DIMENSIONAL SHINGLE ROOF (2024), NEW WELL (2022) and NEW WATER HEATER (2025). Those are some of the largest expenses a homeowner can face…and they're already behind you. Add MANUAL HURRICANE SHUTTERS, NO PRIOR FLOODING, and the added peace of mind of being NOT IN A FLOOD ZONE and you'll quickly understand why this home represents such an exceptional value. Yes, the home has been used as a rental property and could benefit from fresh paint and cosmetic updating. But isn't that exactly where opportunity is found? Rather than paying a premium for someone else's decorating choices, you'll have the freedom to create a home that reflects YOUR style while building sweat equity along the way. That's money invested in YOUR future instead of someone else's past. COMPARE THE PRICE. COMPARE THE UPDATES. THEN COMPARE THE OPPORTUNITY. Homes that combine four bedrooms, major system updates, NO HOA, and room to build equity are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Freedom is another feature you'll appreciate. With NO HOA, you'll avoid restrictive association rules and fees. The neighborhood is PET FRIENDLY, RENTAL FRIENDLY and conveniently located near shopping, dining, schools and parks. Then there's the Cape Coral lifestyle. With 400 miles of canals, endless opportunities for boating, fishing, golfing and waterfront dining, it's easy to understand why Cape Coral has been recognized by national publications and organizations as one of America's best places to retire and among Florida's safest cities. Just minutes from CORAL OAKS GOLF COURSE, BURNT STORE MARINA and public boat ramp, the exciting SEVEN ISLANDS waterfront district, and a short drive to Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel Island, Captiva Island and Southwest Florida International Airport, you'll enjoy everything that makes Southwest Florida one of the nation's most desirable places to call home! HURRY! Some homes are move-in perfect. Others are OPPORTUNITY PERFECT. The question isn't whether this home needs a little TLC…it's whether you'll recognize the value before someone else does. Schedule your private showing today and discover why this may be one of the smartest buys in Cape Coral.
