1824 Los Alamos Drive Punta Gorda, FL 33950
A refreshing change!! This SPECTACULAR CUSTOM HOME is one of only 3 in PGI built by highly-respected Howard Hutchins. THIS HOME HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED so don’t let the age concern you - it is as good today as it was the day it was built. Even Hurricane Ian did only minimal damage to a few roof tiles which are under contract to be repaired. NO INTERIOR DAMAGE FROM IAN! Here are some highlights for your checklist – EXTRA LONG - 94’ OF CONCRETE SEAWALL maintained by the City of Punta Gorda - NAVIGABLE CANAL FOR EITHER SAIL OR POWER VESSELS since there are no bridges to pass under to reach Charlotte Harbor or the Gulf of Mexico. AND there are two ways to reach the Harbor – through the new Buckley’s Pass or through Ponce Inlet – your choice depending on where in the harbor you wish to go. 10, 000 POUND BOAT LIFT WITH WATER AND POWER AT THE CONCRETE DOCK - LOVELY INGROUND HEATED POOL AND HEATED SPA - LARGE SCREENED AND PAVERED LANAI OVERLOOKING THE CANAL – a portion of which is under roof for calm relaxation. And that’s just the exterior. NOW FOR THE GOOD PART – As you enter, you will be impressed by the EXPANSIVE FLOOR PLAN with natural light pouring in from a plethora of arched windows and 3 sliding door walls, including one in the owners’ suite. Immediately you realize that this home was built for not only ease of living but also for entertaining. The open dining area, with a tray ceiling, is a joy for intimate dining with your love or for those wonderful times when the whole family comes to share . The AMAZING KITCHEN is a chef’s dream – granite countertops - stainless steel appliances - 2 ovens - TONS OF CABINET AND DRAWER STORAGE - sliders to the lanai and a lovely, comfortable seating area. A SEPARATE BAR AREA WITH SEATING OPTIONS offers a granite counter and pass through window to the lanai and centers the floor plan with a sink, bar fridge and even more storage. This area overlooks a delightful seating area with a gas-fired fireplace and sliders to the lanai. The owners’ suite, which encompasses the east side of the home, is spectacular and serene – large and cozy at the same time with a tray ceiling, sliders to the lanai and a pleasant sitting nook overlooking the canal. HIS & HERS WALK-IN CLOSETS WITH BUILT INS keep all your belongings well organized. The owners’ ensuite bathroom is well away from the public areas and is huge with a no splash walk-in shower designed to keep floor tiles dry, soaking tub, 2 sinks, linen closet. Entering the owners’ suite hallway, you find what is now a spacious den/office with a pocket door but could be 4th bedroom. At the opposite side of the home and well away from the public areas, there are 2 LARGE ENSUITE BEDROOMS and closets. One bedroom offers an entrance to the lanai and pool area – hence this bathroom is sometimes called a pool bath. SPECIAL FEATURES – SECURITY SYSTEM – CENTRAL VACUUM SYSTEM – WHOLE HOUSE FILTRATION SYSTEM – GAS-FIRED FIREPLACE – 2 AIR CONDITIONING UNITS each with its own thermostat – 2 HOT WATER HEATERS and FULL-HOUSE HURRICANE PROTECTION - OVERSIZED 3 CAR GARAGE. As you enter, the sense of comfort and well being is instant. This is a home for the ages and FOR YOU FOR YEARS TO COM
