LAKEFRONT POOL HOME WITH FLEXIBLE IN-LAW/DUAL-SUITE LIVING! Welcome Southwest Florida lifestyle in this beautifully updated custom home in desirable Burnt Store Lakes. Positioned along more than 100 feet of picturesque lakefront with over 300 feet of long water views, this home offers something increasingly hard to find-peace, privacy, flexibility, and easy access to everything that makes Punta Gorda such a special place to call home. From the welcoming screened front porch and elegant glass French-door entry, step into a spacious great room with soaring 11.8-foot vaulted ceilings, crown molding, architectural details, and an open, airy feel. French doors and pocketing sliders blur the line between indoors and out, opening to the private screened pool and lanai overlooking the lake. Whether entertaining friends, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or watching another spectacular Florida sunset, this is a home designed around the water and outdoor living. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, bar seating, generous pantry storage, and a dining nook overlooking the pool. One of this home's most appealing features is its exceptionally versatile split floor plan. The spacious owner's suite offers a tray ceiling, French doors to the pool, two walk-in closets, dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. On the opposite side of the home, a pocket door creates an entirely separate and private living area. One of the bedrooms is currently enjoyed as a second lounge, creating the feel of a private in-law or guest suite with its own bedroom, living space, and bath with pool access. Easily return it to a third bedroom or enjoy the home as two separate primary-style retreats-an ideal arrangement for multigenerational living, extended-stay guests, or anyone wanting additional privacy and flexibility. All three bedrooms offer oversized walk-in closets. BIG-TICKET ITEMS TAKEN CARE OF!
