Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the deed-restricted community of Burnt Store Lakes, this oversized .31 acre homesite at 17383 Malarky Lane is the kind of lot buyers search for and rarely find. With 44 feet of frontage on the cul-de-sac and a full 13,372 square feet behind it, the parcel fans out dramatically past the building line, giving you a narrow, private entrance and a wide, secluded rear yard with greenbelt area behind. Almost no passing traffic, neighbors set well off to the sides, and room across the back for a large custom home with a screened lanai and a pool without feeling boxed in. Public water and sewer are available. Zoned RSF-3.5, Charlotte County’s residential single-family district, the lot is designated for a single-family detached home, which may include an attached guest suite. Swimming pools and similar non-commercial recreational structures are expressly permitted. Because this is a pie-shaped cul-de-sac parcel, buyers should confirm exact setbacks, lot width measurement, and site plan requirements with Charlotte County before finalizing house plans. Two more green lights heading into permitting: the property is NOT located in a Scrub Jay review area, and the National Wetland Inventory mapper shows NO wetlands on site. Burnt Store Lakes is a quiet, established community of custom homes built around a series of freshwater lakes, running along Burnt Store Road just north of Burnt Store Marina. The Property Owners Association has a community park with picnic pavilions, a playground, walking trails, and a kayak and canoe launch. Golf carts are welcome throughout the neighborhood. Boaters have real choices here. Burnt Store Marina sits just minutes south, one of the largest deep-water marinas in Southwest Florida, with optional dockage, a fuel dock, ship store, waterfront dining, golf, and tennis. The community’s own kayak launch reaches Charlotte Harbor directly, and the public Burnt Store Boat Ramp farther down Burnt Store Road opens into the Northwest Spreader canal system, Matlacha Pass, and on to the Gulf of America. Golfers are spoiled for choice. The course at Burnt Store Marina is right next door, with dozens more across Punta Gorda, Cape Coral, and Port Charlotte, enough to play somewhere different every week of the season. Getting around is straightforward. Punta Gorda Airport is a short drive up Burnt Store Road, I-75 is roughly 15 minutes away for easy travel north and south throughout the state, and Fort Myers International (RSW) is about 45 minutes for longer trips and arriving guests. Historic downtown Punta Gorda, Fishermen’s Village, shopping, dining, and medical care are all close. Beach days run about an hour, whether you point toward Boca Grande, Englewood Beach, or Fort Myers Beach. Sports fans are covered. Charlotte Sports Park, spring training home of the Tampa Bay Rays, and CoolToday Park in Wellen Park, home of the Atlanta Braves, are both an easy drive for Grapefruit League baseball each spring. Private cul-de-sac setting, utilities in place, no scrub jay review, no wetlands, and room for the home and pool you actually want.
