You can get a 3 br/2ba ranch built in the 80's on a canal 20-30 min off the river in Cape Coral for mid 300K and up. Great boating area.

You might find a 2 bedroom for that. Most canal homes with Gulf access are bringing 330K and up. If you like I'll go back through last Sunday's paper and see what's up and if I find anything I'll PM you.

Sarasota Bay is nice, prices start around 600K and up and I stress "UP". 85% on Sarasota Bay are a Mil or more.

I love it down here, close to Sarasota, St. Pete/Tampa not that far away, Ft. Myers and Charlotte Harbor not to far away. Kind of the middle of all those areas. Boating is GREAT. Just pay attention to charts, don't have deep water here. Last week during an extremely low tide with a STRONG wind blowing out of the east, about a third of Sarasota Bay was out of water.

No truer words were ever spoken,,the words affordable and waterfront don't even belong in the same sentence....I prefer the St. Johns river(I'm lazy and don't like to clean the mess from salt water) and you can cover alot of distance in there,,,but if the coast is your thing,,most definitely the west coast of Fl.
