Listed by Chris Lee• PARADISE EXCLUSIVE REAL ESTATE
Cape Haze, located between Placida Road and Gasparilla Road, is a coastal and residential Rotonda neighborhood with canal-lined streets and mangrove-fringed waterways. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Placida Road corridor by the Cape Haze Pioneer Trail trailhead, where bike traffic, marina signage, and low-slung local storefronts set a salt-air rhythm. Homes lean Florida ranch and contemporary coastal, often oriented to water views and boat lifts. Lemon Bay Park & Environmental Center frames the landscape with boardwalks and scrubby preserves. Nearby, Cape Haze Marina and The Gasparilla Inn & Club act as recognizable local anchors for boating and Gulf-day rituals.
