Set on over one acre in desirable Dale Lake Estates, just about 3 miles to the beaches of Manasota Key, this private waterfront property offers space, privacy, and no HOA fees. Residents enjoy access to a freshwater lake ideal for kayaking and fishing, all in a peaceful, well kept community of large parcels. Built and proudly maintained by the original owners, this elevated home was designed with the main living area upstairs and has no history of flooding or required flood insurance. Over the past 20 years, it has weathered major storms without ever being in danger. The lot sits high and dry, with hurricane impact doors and windows upstairs and steel shutters protecting the lower level. The second floor offers over 1,200 square feet with two bedrooms, including an ensuite primary, two bathrooms, and an open, light filled living area. French doors lead to a 300 square foot screened deck overlooking the water, where you can enjoy stunning sunsets and watch fish jump, along with otters, eagles, hawks, osprey, bobcats, and more. Downstairs features a two car garage and a private entry in law suite, ideal for guests or flexible living. This level opens directly to the heated saltwater pool and paver deck, creating a seamless indoor outdoor lifestyle. The backyard is fully fenced with a large turnaround driveway for added convenience. Recent updates include a new roof in 2023, AC in 2024, four new impact windows in 2025, and a 2017 hot water heater. The home is on septic with Englewood city water. Walk to the Englewood Tennis Club, long regarded as one of the area’s best, and enjoy quick access to beaches, boating, Dearborn Street, Venice dining, Wellen Park, and more. Private, durable, and true Florida waterfront living. Be sure to view the 3D floor plan while browsing the photos.
