About 2281 8th Ave
Must see this TURNKEY, newly furnished, tranquil bay waterfront property with immediate access to the intercoastal and abundance of wildlife. This beautiful home has captivating views of the secluded bay and Cape Coral and is located on desirable 8th Avenue in Saint James City. Everything you see when touring is included! New household furnishings include Tommy Bahama and other quality coastal lines from Baer’s Furniture in FM. Standing seam metal roof, driveway/walkway pavers, pool renovation, high impact slider doors and windows were completed in 2018. Complete interior remodel was done in 2023, due to Hurricane Ian. No damage from the 2024 hurricane season. The open concept, vaulted wood ceiling, electric fireplace feature wall and 12’ glass slider doors, add to the beauty of this home. The large open gourmet kitchen/dining room is complete with high-end appliances, perfect for meal prep and entertaining. The two-car, drywall finished garage has ample room for storage and workspace. Photos shown in listing are of the pre-Ian 2-lift covered boat dock. The dock was not rebuilt, giving buyers the ability to build to their own needs and specifications. New riprap sea wall, aluminum fence, gates and landscaping completed in 2024. You will be scanning the bay for dolphins, manatees, an array of birdlife and leaping fish while preparing your meals, entertaining guests or just relaxing. Views from everywhere!
