Waterfront. Gated. Gulf Access. Boat slip/lift - available for separate sale or lease. A Lifestyle That Feels Like Vacation Every Day. Welcome to Island Cove of Cape Coral - a vibrant, gated waterfront community where neighbors become friends, winter months come alive with social gatherings, live music, pickleball matches, poolside afternoons, and sunset cruises, and every day feels like a coastal retreat. This beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers direct, no-bridge Gulf access just minutes to open water, making it a dream location for boating enthusiasts, anglers, and anyone who loves life on the water. Spend less time navigating canals and more time enjoying Southwest Florida's world-famous boating destinations. For those looking to complete the ultimate boating lifestyle, there may be an opportunity to purchase a private boat slip, lift, and boat box separately from the residence. Boat slips and lifts are privately owned by individual owners and are not deeded to the property. Ownership of a residence within the gates of Island Cove is required in order to purchase a boat slip within the community marina. Even if boating isn't your passion, the peaceful canal views, tropical landscaping, and relaxing waterfront atmosphere create the perfect escape from everyday life. Inside, the residence has been freshly painted and thoughtfully designed for easy living, featuring two full baths, full-size in-unit laundry, updated appliances, a convenient hide-away murphy bed wall unit in the guest room and the comfort of solid concrete block construction with impact-resistant windows and doors for peace of mind. Island Cove residents enjoy resort-style amenities including a heated pool and spa, clubhouse, tennis and pickleball courts, shuffleboard, scenic walking paths, and an active social calendar that truly shines during season. Covered carport parking and low HOA fees add even more appeal.
