HARBORVIEW HAVEN IN MARY LU MOBILE HOME PARK AFFORDABLE WATERFRONT LIVING: Enjoy harbor views and a private, secluded setting in this meticulously maintained 2005 manufactured home located in the resident owned 55+ Mary Lu Mobile Home Park on Charlotte Harbor. Nestled at the tip of the community where the canal meets the harbor, this one of a kind residence is surrounded by HOA common areas and striking landscaped grounds, with a long winding driveway ensuring privacy. The property features a newer 2022 roof with upgraded double thickness, new skirting, additional reinforced concrete curbing, a new double vapor barrier with insulation between the joists, and updated, upgraded tie downs for superior structural support. A premium 2025 Trane A/C system with heat pump sits on a new reinforced platform for added durability, ensuring year round comfort. The home also offers a four seasons room, a large bonus den, gorgeous landscaping, and a massive 37 x 17 (629 sq. ft.) high ceilinged carport with room for multiple vehicles or recreational storage. A custom 8x10, tied down to major hurricane standards utility shed with an 8' peak ceiling provides additional storage and functionality. The home qualifies for financing due to its age, HUD code compliance, and permanent installation, and it sustained no interior or roof damage from recent storms. Incredibly low carrying costs include HOA fees of $750 per quarter ($250/month), homeowners insurance at $2,233 per year, flood insurance at $907 per year, and real estate taxes of just $900 annually (homesteaded), totaling approximately $587 per month in carrying costs. HOA fees include water, sewer, trash, lawn care, park maintenance, clubhouse access, community grounds, private boat ramp, and clubhouse/billiards. The community fishing pier is currently being evaluated for rebuild. Located just minutes from downtown Punta Gorda, residents enjoy close proximity to waterfront dining, Fishermens Village, world class fishing and boating, Gulf Coast beaches, top rated golf courses, medical facilities, shopping, and entertainment. This is a rare opportunity to secure big water views and an affordable, low maintenance Florida lifestyle in a vibrant and welcoming waterfront community.
