Ready for Development lot in Port Charlotte

Prime residential lot opportunity in Charlotte County, located at 14381 SWORDFISH CT (ZIP: 33946). Situated in a desirable area, this property offers convenient access to South Gulf Cove (approximately 3.37 miles), Fiberglass Pool Doctor (1.76 miles), and Sunny Breezes Villa (1.73 miles). The lot is located in Flood Zone AE, a high-risk area within the 100-year floodplain with determined base flood elevations. This requires any structure's lowest floor to be elevated above the base flood level (typically 1-2 feet or more per local codes), increasing foundation and construction costs. Mandatory flood insurance is required for federally backed mortgages, with potential substantial annual premiums. Building restrictions may include limits on enclosed areas below the flood elevation, requirements for flood vents, and the possible need for engineered flood-resistant designs or materials to comply with FEMA and local regulations. No wetlands are identified near the site, allowing for development without additional federal or state wetland permitting, delineation studies, or mitigation requirements. Buyer should verify all zoning, setbacks, utility availability, and development requirements with the Charlotte County Planning Department. The property is available for a self-guided tour. Subleasing is not permitted. This lot is not available for rent or lease.
