5316 SW 24th Pl, Cape Coral, FL, 33914

Never before offered to the market, this custom-built, one-owner waterfront residence at 5316 SW 24th Pl was designed and maintained with pride for more than two decades. A striking roofed entry and leaded-glass double doors announce the thoughtful details inside, where 2,324 square feet of living space unfolds with purposeful rooms for daily life and entertaining alike.

Formal and casual spaces coexist here: a stately living room sets a refined tone while a firelit family room centers the home’s social life. Triple-pocket sliding doors along the waterside open wide to connect the interior to the covered lanai and heated pool/spa—perfect for evenings gathered with family or watching the western sunsets over the intersecting Gulf-access canal. A granite wet bar between the kitchen and family room provides a natural staging area for parties and quiet nights in equal measure.

The kitchen is practical and inviting with solid-surface counters, tiled backsplash, stainless-steel appliances, a center island, built-in desk and a cozy breakfast nook. A pass-through bar to the lanai keeps the chef in the conversation while a formal dining room handles larger gatherings. Convenience features include an indoor laundry room with utility sink and a second refrigerator.

The master suite reads like a private retreat: vaulted ceilings, plantation shutters, pool access and a spa-style ensuite with dual sinks, a soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. A distinctive coastal frosted and etched glass window above the tub provides both privacy and character. Two guest bedrooms and a full bath occupy the opposite wing for privacy and comfort.

Outside, the property delivers the boating lifestyle Cape Coral is known for: a covered dock with boat lift and a private tiki hut sit on a wide Gulf-access canal. The lanai includes a pool bath and outdoor shower, while a picture-window pool cage frames expansive water views. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a cherished custom residence with direct boating access and nightly sunset scenery.

This section of Cape Coral embodies the city’s defining coastal lifestyle—quiet residential streets, an extensive canal network, and easy access to boating and fishing. Residents enjoy proximity to waterfront dining, neighborhood marinas and everyday conveniences while still being within reach of Gulf beaches and regional amenities. The community favors an outdoor-oriented pace: mornings on the water, afternoons by the pool, and evenings watching vivid sunsets from private lanai spaces.
