Home for Sale in Courtyard Landings with a New Tile Roof

Wed, Jun 25th 2025 10:02 am by David Shippey Punta Gorda Homes For Sale

This home is for sale in the Courtyard Landings community in the Burnt Store Marina located in Punta Gorda, Florida. A big plus for this home is the owner replaced the tile roof in 2024. Tile roofs are expensive at the tune of $50,000. But, this is not an expense done every 10 years. Tile roofs last about 50 years and are one of the best roof coverings for hurricanes. That savings alone is great for a new home owner. In addition to that savings, the seller is currently offering the home at a greatly reduced price which provides funds for the new owner to remodel the home to their tastes. Call soon for your showing!
