Sunset on the Canal



The Space:

Beautifully furnished and wonderfully tranquil, this Cape Coral home has an idyllic canal-side setting offering direct gulf access. Tie your boat up to the private dock after a day on the water. Or spend your time in the gorgeous screened-in patio with a pool, lounge chairs, and a large dining table for alfresco meals. In the evenings, whip up cocktails for your group and catch amazing sunsets. The home is centrally located near all that Cape Coral has to offer, with family-friendly attractions, restaurants, fishing trips, and beaches an easy drive from your door.





Tiled floors flow throughout an open living space made for socializing. In the sitting area, there’s a plush recliner, a large sectional sofa, and a 56-inch TV with DVD player. An electric fireplace keeps this space feeling cozy on cool winter nights. Chic and spacious, an open kitchen features all-white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, including a French door refrigerator. Chat with the chef at the four-person breakfast bar, or relax in a nearby sitting area with cushioned wicker chairs. When dinner’s ready, gather around an elegant wooden dining table. The house also has an office area with a glass-top desk and printer — ideal if you need a quiet spot to work or catch up on email.
