430 Cartagena StreetPunta Gorda, FL 33983Price: $449,997

Virtually Staged. Built like a fortress, styled like a showpiece. This 2007 Punta Gorda Isles home is elevated roughly 3 ft above road grade on ~100 loads of imported fill, wrapped in poured-concrete. E-Wall exterior rated to withstand 250 mph winds, with metal interior studs throughout. Peace of mind, meet curb appeal! - 2,498 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a true 3-car garage. Roof replaced in 2023. Step inside to a light-filled, open-concept living, dining, and kitchen space where 11.5-ft sliders pull back to a screened lanai. The kitchen is a showstopper: crisp white cabinetry with brass hardware (17 lowers, 20 uppers, six double drawers), two matching pantries plus a third lighted bonus pantry, room to add an island, and every appliance included. The primary suite is pure retreat - soaring 14.5-ft vaulted ceilings, surround sound, and not one but two mirrored walk-in closets, each with its own HVAC vent and lighting, plus a bonus single closet. The spa bath delivers dual sinks, a jetted tub, roll-in shower, private water closet, porcelain tile, and a chandelier overhead. Guest bedroom one brings its own HVAC-equipped mirrored walk-in closet; guest bedroom two charms with a 9-ft slider to the lanai, tray ceiling, and surround sound. The shared guest bath features a spacious 4'3" x 6'10" roll-in shower. A separate patio bath with jetted tub area and extra storage rounds things out. Chandeliers crown both the grand foyer and dining room. Move-in ready never looked this good.
