About this home
1941 ILLINOIS AVENUE
Exceptional Waterfront Location with Deep-Water, No-Bridge Access to the Gulf of Mexico! This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront home offers an exceptional boating location with deep-water, direct sailboat access and no bridges to the Gulf of Mexico. Situated just minutes from the Intracoastal Waterway and Gulf, this property provides easy access to world-class boating, fishing, pristine beaches, and the barrier islands. The property is uniquely equipped for serious boaters, featuring a large concrete seawall with heavy-duty davits, plus a large covered boat house with a lift capable of accommodating a larger boat. Enjoy the Florida waterfront lifestyle from multiple outdoor living areas, including a partially covered lanai and outdoor cooking area with paver decking. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully remodeled with a fresh clean look of ceramic tile flooring throughout, newer appliances, a new A/C system installed in 2024, and sliding pocket doors that open to the Florida room and showcase beautiful, sweeping waterfront views. Additional improvements include a metal roof installed in 2020, with matching metal roofs over the carport and workshop/shed. Six impact windows have also been installed along the west and south sides of the home, providing added storm protection, energy efficiency, and reduced outside noise. Located on a quiet dead-end street with a cul-de-sac bordering the shores of Lemon Bay, the home is surrounded by an area of newer residences and exudes a peaceful setting while remaining at the opening to Gulf Coast amenities. The home can be offered turnkey, with furnishings available for purchase at an additional negotiated price. Bring your boat and start enjoying the Southwest Florida waterfront lifestyle—this is a rare combination of deep water, no-bridge Gulf access, substantial boating infrastructure, and a beautifully updated home.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
