Canal-Front Pool Home in Gated Cory Lake Isles — Move-In Ready

If you’ve been looking for that easy Florida lifestyle — water out back, a pool to jump into, and a neighborhood where you actually want to spend your weekends — this is it.

This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Mediterranean-style home in Cory Lake Isles checks all the right boxes. At 2,200 square feet, there’s plenty of room to spread out, and the layout just works. New flooring throughout (no carpet anywhere), an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, refreshed bathrooms, and a washer and dryer already in place — it’s genuinely move-in ready.

The back of the home is where things get good. Pocket sliders open all the way up, connecting the living room to a screened lanai and private pool overlooking the canal. It’s the kind of setup where you stop closing the door between inside and outside — you just leave it open. The canal feeds into the community ski lake, so there’s always something to watch, and easy water access if you want it.

Out front, a pavered driveway and tile roof give the place real curb appeal. Inside, everything has been taken care of — this isn’t a project home.

Cory Lake Isles is a manned gated community with canary palms lining the brick-paved streets and more amenities than most would expect: beach club, community pool, fitness center, tennis courts, basketball, hockey rink, and sand volleyball. It’s an active, friendly neighborhood with a lot going on — or you can just stay home and float in your own pool. Either works.
