Luxury Waterfront Living at Its Finest – Top-Floor Tarpon Cove Condo with Private Elevator and Deeded Dock with 27,000-lb Lift

Experience the perfect blend of luxury, privacy, and waterfront convenience in this stunning top-floor Cayo Costa II residence located in the coveted community of Tarpon Cove in Punta Gorda Isles. With a deeded dock space (#12) & a 27,000-lb boat lift accommodating up to a 38-foot vessel, this property offers direct, sailboat-access boating to Charlotte Harbor with no bridges!

From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail is unmistakable. The home’s elegant and cohesive renovations have created a bright, open-concept design that seamlessly connects each living space while capturing the beauty of the natural surroundings. Engineered maple hardwood floors provide a warm, neutral foundation that complements any style, while elevated ceilings and walls of windows invite abundant natural light and soothing water views from nearly every room.

The floor plan offers flexibility with two large master suites, each featuring its own private ensuite bath and walk-in closet, plus a third bedroom and a spacious den or office conveniently located near the third full bathroom. The layout is ideal for hosting family and friends or for those who desire dedicated work-from-home space. And if stairs aren’t your thing, you’ll love the private elevator exclusive to this unit, offering effortless access directly from your oversized two-car garage (462 sq. ft.) to your main living level.

The kitchen is a showpiece—designed for the passionate cook and entertainer alike. Exquisite quartz countertops, a generous island, recently extended for extra bar stools/eating space, and an abundance of cabinet and pantry storage make this a dream workspace.

Entertaining is effortless in the expansive great room, featuring a custom feature wall with electric fireplace, and a bar and wine display that elevate the dining area into a true gathering space. From the screened lanai, take in the peaceful sights and sounds of the illuminated fountain—an enchanting backdrop for evening cocktails or morning coffee.

Practical features blend seamlessly with the luxury details: impact-resistant glass and shutters for storm protection, a new roof installed in 2023, multiple walk-in closets, and an oversized laundry room with extra storage. Every inch of this residence has been carefully designed for comfort, beauty, and function.

Set within Tarpon Cove’s 10-acre gated enclave, residents enjoy a carefree, maintenance-free lifestyle enhanced by a heated pool and spa, clubhouse, fitness center, and scenic sidewalks that wind through lush tropical landscaping. Boaters will appreciate the well-maintained concrete walkways leading to the private docks, each equipped with electric pedestals, dock boxes, and 30-amp service.

Beyond the gates, you’re minutes from Fishermen’s Village, historic downtown Punta Gorda, waterfront parks, walking trails, golf, pickleball, and some of Southwest Florida’s most celebrated dining and entertainment destinations. Whether you’re seeking a seasonal retreat or a year-round residence, this condo offers the perfect balance of elegance, tranquility, and access to adventure.
