Welcome to your own private backyard oasis in Corkscrew Shores! Meticulously cared for by its original owners, this 2-bedroom plus den, 2-bath home pairs thoughtful upgrades with one of the most inviting outdoor spaces in the community. Inside, 9'4" ceilings, crown molding throughout, 5¼" baseboards with 3¼" casing, and plantation shutters give the home a finished feel you rarely find at this price point. Tile flows through every room with no carpet anywhere. The bright kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a generous center island with seating, a double-door pantry and under-sink reverse osmosis system. A dedicated dining area connects the kitchen and comfortable living space, creating an easy, open flow for everyday living and entertaining. The den is perfect for a home office or guest space, and the owner's suite offers an elegant tray ceiling, garden views, a dual-sink granite vanity, walk-in shower and oversized walk-in closet. Additional thoughtful touches include cabinetry in the laundry room and a beautifully finished garage with epoxy flooring, custom cabinetry and overhead storage to keep everything neat and organized. Outside, extensive mature landscaping, paver walkways and hardscaping surround the home, while the exterior has since been upgraded with Sherwin-Williams Resilience paint for added durability and moisture resistance. The screened lanai opens to nearly 600 square feet of paver patio spanning the width of the home, creating an exceptional outdoor living space with plenty of room to dine, gather or unwind. A low stone seat wall frames the courtyard, while tall manicured hedges and swaying palms create wonderful privacy. Beyond the patio, a lush lawn and mature shade trees lead to a sweep of ornamental grasses with no homes behind. Corkscrew Shores offers a 240-acre lake for kayaking and fishing, a grand clubhouse with lakeside restaurant and bar, resort-style pool, fitness center, spa, tennis, pickleball and bocce. Sidewalks line both sides of the neighborhood streets, and residents enjoy direct access from within the community to an extensive network of nature trails. No CDD, and just minutes to Coconut Point, FGCU, RSW and the Gulf beaches!
