Property Description

Secluded Coastal Sanctuary! Discover one of Englewood's best-kept secrets within the private, quiet enclave of Blue Dolphin Estates. This rare retreat is one of only 30 homes nestled in a community where every property sits on a sprawling 1-acre lot, offering a level of privacy and space that is increasingly hard to find. The grounds are a nature lover's dream, featuring extensive mature landscaping including majestic live oaks and swaying palms that create a lush, park-like canopy around the home. Whether you are seeking a quiet morning on the porch or an afternoon of adventure, the location is unbeatable; the neighborhood directly borders the Manasota Scrub Preserve, allowing you to walk or bike through neighborhood access trails all the way to the pristine sands of Manasota Beach, located just 1.5 miles away.
Outdoor living is the centerpiece of this estate, highlighted by a massive 25,000-gallon, 8-foot-deep pool that was meticulously resurfaced in 2022. Peace of mind comes standard with, a rescreened and painted lanai (2022), and a newly coated and sealed pool deck (2021). The pool area is further enhanced by a new pump and motor (2023) and new safety fencing and gates (2024). Beyond the pool, your backyard serves as a private gateway to Florida's famous waterways, offering direct kayak access to both Dale Lake and Lemon Bay. This Cape Cod-style waterfront home has been maintained with an eye for detail, featuring a 2023 roof and gutters and a layout designed for both comfort and connection. Inside, the living room impresses with vaulted wood ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace, while the family room and dry bar provide the perfect setting for hosting friends and family in a relaxed, coastal atmosphere.
The heart of the home is the stunningly updated kitchen, a true masterpiece for the culinary enthusiast. It features elegant granite countertops, custom soft-close cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and a dedicated coffee bar or built-in desk area. For the serious chef, the kitchen was just upgraded with a brand-new double oven, ensuring you are fully equipped for holiday gatherings or quiet weeknight meals in the adjacent sun-drenched dinette. The second floor is designed for ultimate relaxation, featuring a primary suite sanctuary with a spa-like bath and a private full-length balcony overlooking the canal and lush grounds. The 2nd-story deck was resurfaced, sealed, and painted in 2022, and even the guest suite on the opposite end of the floor enjoys direct access to this elevated outdoor space!
With its perfect blend of natural beauty, water access, and modern luxury, this home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of paradise.
