18000 San Carlos Boulevard 1 At Boardwalk Caper Unit #1, the waterfront canal becomes part of your own private backyard. From the large lanai, the water opens to the wide sky rather than obstructed views of homes across the water, making the gorgeous sunsets especially memorable. Pelicans, dolphins, and manatees often pass by, adding to this unique location and view. This rarely available end unit townhome is beautifully furnished, offers two bedrooms, two and a half baths and a deep water boat slip just outside. The new composite docks also offer water and electricity with a short boat ride to the open Gulf waters. The naturally sunlit home has been reimagined with personal touch and thoughtful design choices throughout rather than standard builder finishes. The quartz island kitchen, large tile flooring, custom primary bedroom ensuite, built in closet cabinetry, and enlarged primary bath all feel curated instead of remodeled. The entry walls have been replaced with a dining space and the now open kitchen is a welcoming gathering hub. The impact resistant glass doors and windows provide additional security, while the front patio entrance is ideal for outdoor entertaining on cool evenings. Storage is never an issue with the closet inserts, space under the stairs, and a private storage facility to house larger items. All have been replaced in recent years, including the all-in-one washer and dryer system. Boardwalk Caper is a highly desirable, gated community with well maintain landscaping, four pools, a hot tub and more than half a mile of private boardwalk. The quarterly fees have recently been reduced and the community has plans to improve the community's asphalt with funds already paid by the homeowners. Island hopping and waterfront dining is a breeze with the incredible SW Florida beaches nearby and a sunset view that feels privately shared with this unit only. Additional upgrades include a premium Samsung appliance suite featuring an induction range and an exceptionally quiet dishwasher rated at just 42 dBA, along with an LG all-in-one washer and dryer for effortless convenience. This desirable end unit welcomes abundant natural light through two additional windows, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. Significant improvements also include a new HVAC system in 2023, an updated electrical panel, and whole home surge protection for added peace of mind.
