The story
- Waterfront
“The Boat House” is a rare opportunity to own one of Boca Grande’s most compelling newly constructed deep-water boating properties, a refined waterfront retreat purpose-built for the avid sportfishing and boating lifestyle. Completed in 2024 by Yusk Construction and interiors masterfully curated by local designer, Sue Sligar, this custom residence delivers the increasingly rare combination of immediate Gulf access, new marine infrastructure, and elevated coastal luxury in an exceptionally efficient island footprint. Positioned along a protected deep-water canal with no fixed bridges to Charlotte Harbor or the Gulf, the property was designed for owners who prioritize quick access to open water, effortless dockage, and turnkey boating convenience. A newly constructed seawall and exceptional dock complex create a highly functional waterfront environment tailored to the serious fisherman and boating enthusiast alike. Features include a 24,000-pound Coastal Series boat lift, expansive ENDECK synthetic decking, aluminum-framed grated platform, illuminated fish-cleaning station, shore power, freshwater service, and direct deep-water access to the harbor and Gulf within minutes. Inside, the design aesthetic elevates the residence far beyond a traditional boating property. Refined coastal textures, nickel-gap shiplap walls and ceilings, designer wallpaper, curated lighting, brass stair railings, and bespoke cabinetry create interiors reminiscent of an elegant private yacht club...polished, timeless, and effortlessly luxurious. Andersen hurricane-impact windows and doors flood the home with natural light while delivering exceptional storm protection and peace of mind. The chef’s kitchen was designed for elevated entertaining after a day on the water, featuring quartz countertops, custom soft-close cabinetry, and a premium appliance suite including a Liebherr refrigerator/freezer and Bosch induction range, dishwasher, and microwave drawer. Offering two bedrooms, one full bath, and two half baths, the residence was intentionally designed to function as the ideal luxury boating retreat, guest residence, or private quarters for a captain or crew supporting a larger island estate. Elevated approximately 13’3” above base flood elevation, the structure incorporates superior construction standards including a concrete block base, advanced steel cross-frame reinforcement system, standing seam metal roof, Hardie siding and soffits, open-cell spray foam insulation, tankless electric water heater, and a 2024 HVAC system. The pull-through garage operates as a fully equipped marine utility space complete with epoxy floors, EV charging readiness, rod storage systems, additional refrigeration, full size washer and dryer, plumbing for an ice-maker, and extensive storage for fishing gear, water toys, and boating equipment. Technology and security are seamlessly integrated with an Alert 360 security system, Lutron lighting controls, multiple WiFi access points, security cameras, and SONOS surround sound anchored by an 85-inch Samsung television in the living room. For the discerning Boca Grande owner seeking state-of-the-art dockage, immediate deep-water Gulf access, and a turnkey luxury residence designed around the boating lifestyle, “The Boat House” represents an exceptionally rare island offering.
