32600 SERENE DRIVE

Morning light filters through the oaks of this Punta Gorda property, just off Highway 17, where 9+ acres meet the steady flow of Prairie Creek. The land carries a quiet kind of life-cranes standing watch along the water’s edge, turtles slipping beneath the surface, and birds filling the air with their passing songs. The creek moves at its own pace inviting slow days spent exploring by kayak or casting a line from the dock. The home rests comfortably within this natural setting, a 2-bedroom, 2-bath space built for simple living. Inside, tile flooring runs throughout the home, keeping things cool and easy to maintain, while the open layout allows for entertaining. The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, and the oversized primary bedroom includes its own en suite bath. A second bedroom and guest bath provide space for family or visitors. Out back, the 20x26 screened porch becomes the place where time stretches out. Mornings start with coffee and the soft sound of water moving through the creek, and evenings wind down with nothing but the breeze through the trees and the occasional rustle of wildlife. It’s a space that naturally draws you to slow down and stay awhile. A 1,200 square foot detached garage offers room to work, store, build, or create: whether that means tools, equipment, or weekend projects. A short walk leads to the dock and boathouse, where the creek opens the door to fishing, paddling, or simply sitting close to the water. This property leans into a quieter way of living, where the land, the creek, and the surrounding wildlife shape each day.
