South Gulf Cove

South Gulf Cove Homes for Sale – Port Charlotte, Florida 33981

South Gulf Cove is a sprawling waterfront community developed in Port Charlotte during the late 1970s by General Development Corp. This company went into bankruptcy in 1990, but it left with the community’s infrastructure already in place.

South Gulf Cove is notably one of the last large U.S. residential communities platted on the waterfront with access to the Gulf of Mexico. Developments like this community are not being pursued anymore due to the lack of available land and the huge costs involved of such projects.

Extensive Canal Network

The waterfront character of South Gulf Cove is largely defined by more than 120 man-made canals meandering for 55 miles around the community. This network of wide, deep-water canals provide direct access to Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf of Mexico.

This community has several onsite amenities built through the initiatives of the South Gulf Cove Homeowners’ Association which also oversees the enforcement of deed restrictions of the community. Available for residents’ use are a community park, a Homeowners Pavilion, and nature trails. The South Gulf Cove Park, located next to a boat storage facility, also features a community boat ramp accessible to all residents.

Big Builders Take Over

The entire South Gulf Cove development has more than 15,000 home sites, a great number of which has remained vacant. These empty lots have drawn the attention of some major builders keen on filling the rising demand in the home market after the 2007‒2009 Great Recession.

Maronda Homes is one of the builders which have established their presence in this community. This Sanford, Florida-based company has lined up five home designs for its South Gulf Cove homes for sale. Its offerings include one- and two story builds with floor areas ranging from about 1,600 square feet up to approximately 3,000 square feet. Designed with three up to six bedrooms, these residences are priced starting from the high $100s up to the $200s.

Maronda provides full warranties to these builds which are of concrete block stucco construction. Their standard features include spacious great rooms, eat-in kitchens, high ceilings, and indoor utility rooms.

Adams Homes, based in Gulf Breeze, Florida, has also done some spadework in South Gulf Cove. This builder offers home designs with floor areas ranging from 1,540 square feet up to 3,000 square feet. Its pricing for these builds start from the high $100s.

Resale Picks

Prospective buyers can also pick from pre-owned homes for sale in South Gulf Cove. These properties could land in top the sales listings in this community, particularly those which have larger floor areas of over 3,000 square feet. With three-bedroom configurations, these standouts in the community typically fetch price quotes in the high $700s.

Port Charlotte’s proximity to popular Gulf Coast beaches in Boca Grande and Manasota Key helps drive buying interest on these South Gulf Cove houses. Several golf and country clubs are also easily accessible to the local residents, who can as readily partake of the life and leisure venues and activities in the commercial areas of Port Charlotte and Punta Gorda.
