About this home

5.5 gated and fenced acres, room for horses, space for every toy, Prairie Creek along the rear, and a private pond where the day can end with a fishing pole in hand. This freshly remodeled Prairie Creek Park property combines country freedom with a beautifully updated home, all within easy reach of Punta Gorda. Set in one of Punta Gorda's established equestrian communities, the 1,838sqft home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 remodeled bathrooms, a 2023 roof, and a bright, open interior. A brick-paver patio creates an inviting approach before the home opens into a spacious living area with high ceilings and warm wood accents. The kitchen features quartz countertops, a sleek tile backsplash, recessed lighting, 2025 stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar open to the living area. A generous walk-in pantry/laundry room adds storage and function, while easy-care neutral tile flooring continues throughout the home. With wood-accented ceilings and abundant open space, the Florida room offers flexible use as an additional living room, recreation or game room, hobby area, or casual gathering space. The primary suite offers its own comfortable retreat with a remodeled en-suite bath featuring dual sinks and a walk-in closet, while two spacious guest bedrooms and a remodeled guest bath complete the interior. Outside, this 5+ acre Punta Gorda horse property truly separates itself. An approximately 1,800sqft steel building with electric and a roll-up door provides room for RVs, boats, cars, tractors, ATVs, equipment, workshop space, and more. Four newly built horse stalls and dog pens enhance the property's equestrian and animal-friendly appeal. A detached 864sqft garage with electric and double doors opens to an adjoining area currently used as a home gym with mini-split, creating additional hobby, recreation, or workspace possibilities. The blacktop driveway extends from the street to the garage and barn, ideal for sports cars. Additional storage includes a shed housing the well and pump equipment, a second pump shed to irrigate 2 acres, and a dedicated kayak shed with capacity for up to four kayaks. Newly added irrigation helps maintain the acreage. Prairie Creek runs along the rear, allowing you to launch kayaks right from home. A private pond with float switch system and newly built aluminum dock creates a peaceful spot for fishing and watching wildlife. Horse enthusiasts can enjoy approximately 22 miles of equestrian riding trails along Prairie Creek Park's scenic community greenbelts, allowing you to saddle up without trailering elsewhere before returning to your own fenced acreage, stalls, outbuildings, and wide-open surroundings. The home and buildings are in Flood Zone X, with concrete Hardie siding and concrete soffits on the house, garage, and both sheds. And when country quiet gives way to a night out, historic downtown Punta Gorda and I-75 are a short drive away. Enjoy waterfront dining, shopping and entertainment, stroll the Harborwalk along Charlotte Harbor, visit Fishermen's Village, or spend the afternoon exploring everything this Southwest Florida waterfront community has to offer. Whether your vision includes horses, kayaking, fishing, RV/hobby car/boat storage, a serious workshop, or simply five private acres with room to spread out, this Prairie Creek Park property offers the space, flexibility, and lifestyle to make it your own.
