Description

FRESHLY RENOVATED dream cottage on 1.25 acres of private and naturalized 100% uplands. Truly a nature lover’s paradise, this picturesque Florida home leverages an abundance of outdoor living space and windows for a sense of connection to the peaceful setting from all angles. Completely fenced including gated entry, front and rear porches overlook expansive, low-maintenance wild spaces, flower beds, and butterfly garden with all the magnificent local wildlife we cherish. Seating areas and fire pit are conveniently distributed around the outdoors, with plenty of room to add a pool or store that boat, RV, or toys free from HOA restrictions. Renovations to the cottage began in 2022 and have been comprehensive. Highlights include a designer white shaker kitchen with market-favorite quartz counter top, waterfall edge, and matching quartz backsplash with all newer stainless appliances; fully reimagined primary suite with fresh oversize marbled tile, free-standing tub, and quartz double vanity; enormous screened rear porch which doubles as an extra family room and dining space for four-season enjoyment; popular wood-look LVP plank flooring throughout living spaces and bedrooms; re-pipe and pest prevention system; newer hot water heater; new HVAC; and freshly serviced metal roof with new screws and seals, expected to last 10+ years. Home is located in optimal flood zone “X” with no flood insurance requirements or history of flood or hurricane damage, and seller will provide a complete inspection report performed 1/30/26 for additional peace of mind and savings. San Carlos Estates is a rare pocket of non-gated, non-HOA land, where homeowners enjoy large lots, privacy, and freedom, while being just moments away from all the dining, shopping, healthcare, and conveniences shared with the neighboring world-class gated communities. The Estates has a charm and sense of community unique to the area, with many homeowners electing to use golf carts to scoot around (and merrily parade down Strike Lane for the winter holidays and Halloween), and is one of the few local communities permitting equestrian use, agricultural use, and select home-based businesses. It’s a transitional community where multi-million dollar custom homes are the new norm, but it still manages to remain casual and retain its country charm. Come explore today!
