About this home
252 WATERWAYS AVENUE
Experience the Boca Grande lifestyle in this highly desirable ground floor residence nestled in the heart of the Village on deep protected water. This one of a kind home is located in an "X flood zone" and it experienced no water intrusion during the storms. As you step into this lovely 4 bedroom and 4 bath classic Boca Grande style home, you will appreciate the sun filled great room which includes a beautiful coral stone fireplace and French doors that open to a stone patio, and heated pool. The unique residence is designed around the lush outdoor space which includes a fenced yard, and a dock for your large vessel. You will appreciate the convenience of single story living both indoors and out. In addition to the impressive great room, this Florida Style plan boasts a kitchen with stone counters and breakfast nook, a large primary suite and bathroom and a fantastic executive office, which can also serve as a den, and finally 3 ensuite guest rooms. This distinctive home has a new standing seam roof, tankless hot water, and beautiful mature landscaping. Outdoor activities are endless, as you take advantage of day trips to neighboring islands, world class fishing, paddleboarding and kayaking, or you can choose to bike the length of the island on the “bike path”, or golf cart to the beach for a walk on the beach or swim in the Gulf of Mexico. Boca Grande is famous for so much more than its Tarpon. Retreat to an idyllic lifestyle, where bicycles and golf carts are the preferred mode of transport, and old Florida charm abounds, where no street lights, traffic or high rises exist. There is no place quite like it!

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
