Welcome to 5424 Anderson Road in sought-after Gulf Cove, where space, privacy, and the Florida lifestyle come together on a beautifully landscaped one-acre homesite. This inviting home features classic parquet flooring, soaring cathedral ceilings, and plantation shutters throughout. Step outside to your private sparkling pool, featuring a Baquacil® non-chlorine sanitation system—an alternative to traditional chlorine pool care. The expansive property offers plenty of room for vehicles, boats, RVs, and other toys, with a second oversized garage featuring a new impact-rated garage door and impact-rated windows. The garage also offers both 120V and 240V electrical service, making it ideal for a workshop, hobbyist, or additional equipment. The outdoor space is designed for enjoying the Florida lifestyle, with a separate powered potting shed, deck, and vegetable garden tucked into the backyard. The home is equipped with fully paid solar panels installed in 2021 and backed by a warranty, helping significantly reduce electricity costs. Additional major updates include new roofs on all buildings in 2023 and a new A/C system in 2025. Located in the heart of Gulf Cove, this property offers a peaceful setting while providing access to the community's voluntary property owners association. Membership gives you access to a private park and boat dock on the Myakka River, with boating access toward Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf. With an acre of land, a private pool, multiple garages, workshop potential, solar power, and nearby river access, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of the Southwest Florida lifestyle—with room to live, work, play, and store all your Florida toys. A valuable added benefit for buyers: the seller’s existing NFIP flood insurance policy may be transferred to the new owner, subject to NFIP requirements.
Section 53, located between I-75 and the Myakka River, is a suburban and nature-leaning North Port neighborhood with canal-lined streets and wide, wooded lots. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Toledo Blade Boulevard and US-41 corridor, where local plazas, diners, and service shops set a practical, day-to-day rhythm. Warm Mineral Springs Park serves as a singular local landmark tied to the area’s outdoors-first pace. The North Port Performing Arts Center adds a civic cultural note beyond the residential grid. Housing reads as Florida contemporary and ranch-style, with screened lanais and generous setbacks. Nearby preserves and waterways shape a lifestyle oriented to trails, paddling, and open sky.
