143 FRANCIS DRIVE NE

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Charming Home is an ideal opportunity for anyone seeking easy access to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf Islands by boat. With plenty of potential, it's ready for your personal touch and updates to truly make it your own. Fish right from your dock or seawall and store your boat on the lift (new motor needed). The backyard offers a tranquil canal view, with mangroves lining Higgs Park across the water. The deck by the carport is a great spot for a firepit or outdoor seating, perfect for enjoying the view. A spacious screened lanai provides year-round enjoyment of the outdoors. Additional storage is available in the carport building, and the widened driveway offers extra parking. Storm shutters are included for all windows. The home also has an irrigation system with a well, just requiring a new pump. A new roof was installed in 2023, and following flooding in Fall 2024, the home was professionally mitigated and certified mold-free. With some work, this home could be your perfect slice of paradise.
