170 MOCKINGBIRD LANE

Property Details

Description

Located on the highly desirable southern tip of MANASOTA KEY, which was recently named one of the Best Places to Retire by Travel & Leisure Magazine, 170 Mockingbird Lane presents a rare opportunity to own WATERFRONT property on one of only two CANALS serving this exclusive beachside community — a true boating paradise for anglers and shelling enthusiasts alike — with fast access to Stump Pass and the GULF. Situated on a generous 50’ x 160’ lot, this property features a 30’ PRIVATE BOAT BASIN and a newer SEAWALL installed in 2023, offering DIRECT ACCESS TO LEMON BAY and a short boat ride through deep water and mangroves to some of South West Florida’s best fishing. A few features you'll be sure to enjoy are the PRIVATE TEAK WOOD OUTDOOR SHOWER, canal side TEAK DOCK (8' x 15') and the convenient dockside hose bib , perfectly located so you can wash your boat and gear after a long day out on the water. Enjoy an incredible sunrise coffee from the dock and step onto your boat, kayak, or paddle board for an amazing day on the water. Take a short walk to Stump Pass State Park or across Manasota Beach Road to the neighborhood’s beautiful beach access for an incredible Florida sunset. The existing residence was a 2-bedroom, 2-bath home designed to capture incredible canal views with tropical landscaping and ample hardscape designed to enjoy tropical breezes and the relaxed charm of coastal living. The home was affected by the hurricanes of 2024 and is now ready to be restored to its former glory — or removed to make way for a new, elevated coastal contemporary masterpiece that maximizes views, outdoor living, and modern design. Whether you envision renovating the original footprint or building a brand-new waterfront retreat, the value here is in the prime canal-front location, protected boat basin, and new seawall — all in one of Manasota Key’s most coveted boating neighborhoods. Why pay expensive marina fees or monthly storage costs when you can keep your boat and trailer right at home for free? Enjoy the convenience of having it ready whenever you are — no extra bills, no long-term contracts, and no waiting on access. This is a rare chance to create your ideal waterfront lifestyle in a setting that truly captures the essence of Southwest Florida coastal living. As an added bonus, the two adjacent properties are also for sale by a separate land owner. Potential to combine the three lots certainly exists.
