The garage is equipped with a hurricane rated garage door designed to meet applicable wind resistance standards. The home is situated on a canal front lot with established shoreline improvements that support marine use. Along the water frontage, a seawall was newly constructed in 2020. A dock and boat lift were also installed in 2020, providing direct access to the canal. The boat lift includes a canvas cover, which offers protection for a vessel when not in use. Water depth, vessel suitability, and navigability should be independently verified by prospective buyers based on intended use and seasonal conditions. The roof of the home was replaced in 2021 prior to Hurricane Ian. According to the information provided, the structure did not sustain roof damage during that storm. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own inspections to confirm the condition and remaining service life of the roof and all other improvements. The canal system connected to the property leads toward open water areas that are commonly used for boating and access to nearby fishing flats and coastal waters. The waterways also provide routes for traveling by boat to nearby islands and beaches, subject to local regulations, tides, and weather conditions.

The area is known for its locally owned businesses and pedestrian friendly layout.

Utilities serving the home are consistent with other residential properties in the area, though buyers should verify specific service providers and availability. Any future modifications, expansions, or changes in use should be reviewed with Lee County and applicable local agencies to ensure compliance with zoning, building, and environmental regulations. This property may be suitable for buyers seeking a small waterfront residence with established marine infrastructure in a coastal Florida community.
