The story
Virtually Staged. Welcome to 23088 Gray Ave, a well maintained Port Charlotte home where pride of ownership shows throughout. Lovingly cared for over the years, this home offers buyers something increasingly valuable: major updates already completed with plenty of opportunity to make the space their own. Big ticket improvements include a 2023 roof, 2024 water heater, impact resistant windows and sliding glass doors installed in 2021, and an A/C changeout in 2019. Additional improvements include an updated garage door, hurricane protection, and a vinyl ceiling on the rear lanai. The property is located in FEMA Flood Zone X500, where flood insurance is generally not required by federally backed lenders, although coverage is still recommended. As you enter the home, you're greeted by a spacious and functional living room, where large impact windows allow natural light to fill the space. The front living room flows seamlessly into the centrally located dining area and kitchen, creating an easy, connected layout for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features a large island and opens directly into the generous family room, where oversized impact pocket sliders open to the screened lanai, extending the living space outdoors and creating the seamless indoor outdoor lifestyle Florida homes are known for. The home features a split bedroom floor plan, offering added privacy for the primary suite. The primary bedroom includes a walk in closet and private bathroom featuring a skylight for additional natural light, a stone tiled shower, and vanity with storage. On the opposite side of the home, two guest bedrooms share a guest bathroom with a tub and shower combination, providing a functional setup for family, visitors, or a home office. Step through the pocket sliders onto the spacious screened lanai, then continue outside to an extended paver patio and fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to make the space your own. The lanai is equipped with electrical service for a future hot tub, adding even more potential to the outdoor living space. Create a garden, entertaining area, play space, or simply enjoy the extra room for pets and little ones. Two backyard storage sheds are also equipped with electricity, providing functional space for tools, lawn equipment, hobbies, beach gear, and more. The location puts even more of the Southwest Florida lifestyle within easy reach, with convenient access to Sunseeker Resort, downtown Punta Gorda, Fishermen's Village, waterfront dining, parks, public boat ramps, and Charlotte Harbor. Punta Gorda Airport is also nearby, making travel convenient for full time residents and seasonal visitors alike. Whether you're searching for a full time residence, seasonal Florida escape, or a home you can personalize over time, 23088 Gray Ave combines thoughtful maintenance, valuable updates, generous indoor and outdoor living space, and convenient access to some of the area's favorite destinations.
