Punta Gorda Isles Sections

Updated November 2026 · By Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, McGreevy and Comisar at Domain Realty · More about Jesse McGreevy, Marc Comisar and our team on the McGreevy and Comisar about page. Every county figure below carries the window and the file it came from.

Punta Gorda Isles is a canal community inside the City of Punta Gorda, and it was recorded as numbered plat sections, not as one subdivision. This guide sits under our Charlotte County area guide and our Punta Gorda city guide, and it is the section-by-section companion to our main Punta Gorda Isles community page. Here is every section of Punta Gorda Isles proper on one yardstick: 4,726 single-family homes and 434 vacant parcels across 19 section codes, with the 337 recorded home sales of the last twelve months placed in the section where each one sold.

The sales file behind this page runs to a newest recorded deed of September 9, 2026, so the twelve months are September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026 and the thirty-six months are September 10, 2023 to September 9, 2026. Prices are recorded deed prices on the county record, not list prices.

Why McGreevy and Comisar built this page

Nobody had put the sections side by side. Punta Gorda Isles is sold and searched as one name, yet its homes were platted section by section over two decades, and the record treats each section separately. We lead Domain Realty Group, the #1 team in Southwest Florida since 2012, and we have been Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, with over $2.5 Billion in Real Estate sold as a team. Reading the primary record before advising anyone is the habit that standing was built on.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

So we went to the county files. We tracked 17,403 parcels whose legal description starts with the Punta Gorda Isles abbreviation, we tracked which of them sit in the 19 sections that make up Punta Gorda Isles proper, and we placed every qualified home sale of the last three years in its section. Where the record disagrees with itself, as it does on Section 18 and on the Bird Section, we say so instead of picking the tidier answer.

If you are comparing sections before you buy or sell, call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072. The section is often the first thing that moves a price here, and this is the honest version of it.

How many sections does Punta Gorda Isles have?

Punta Gorda Isles proper is 19 plat section codes on the Charlotte County roll: Sections 1 through 12 (with 9B and 9C split out), 14, 17, 24, 26 and 27. There is no Section 13. Together they hold 5,262 parcels and 4,726 single-family homes, all inside the City of Punta Gorda in ZIP 33950.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

The roll counts 47 section codes in total under the same abbreviation, so 28 of them sit outside Punta Gorda Isles proper. Those other codes belong to communities the same developer platted, among them Burnt Store Isles, Deep Creek and the Burnt Store plats south of the city, and the section below on the legal trap shows what mixing them in does to a price.

Sizes run from a handful of parcels to more than a thousand. Section 14 is the largest with 1,117 homes and Section 12 next with 979; between them they hold 44 percent of the homes and 45 percent of the last twelve months of sales. Sections 9, 9C, 26 and 27 are small replat or tract plats with five homes or fewer each, and Sections 26 and 27 carry no single-family homes at all.

How do the Punta Gorda Isles sections compare?

In Punta Gorda Isles the section sets the price band more than anything else on the record. Over September 10, 2023 to September 9, 2026, the median recorded home price ran from $512,000 in Section 1 to $1,555,000 in Section 10, against $735,000 for the whole community on 793 sales. The table puts every section on the same measured specs.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

How to read it. Land use is single-family (county land use code 01) for homes and vacant (00) for lots. The waterfront share is the Property Appraiser's waterfront flag on single-family parcels, which marks a canal or harbor edge and says nothing about bridges. The twelve months are September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026; the thirty-six months are September 10, 2023 to September 9, 2026. A median is shown only where a section has five or more sales in the window; with fewer, the count is shown and the price is left out, because one or two deeds make a misleading middle. Section rows add up to the community row: 337 sales in twelve months and 793 in thirty-six, the same totals our community page prints.

Nine sections carry a twelve-month median, and they hold 321 of the 337 sales. Thirteen carry a thirty-six-month median. If you are choosing between sections and want help reading a single address against them, our page on the best real estate agents in Punta Gorda sets out how we price a canal home here, street by street rather than by the community average.

Why does a PGI legal description not always mean Punta Gorda Isles?

A legal description that starts with "PGI" only means the land was platted as a Punta Gorda Isles section. Of the 47 section codes that carry it, 19 are Punta Gorda Isles proper; the other 28 cover Burnt Store Isles, Deep Creek, Burnt Store Village, Burnt Store Meadows, Burnt Store Lakes and a few small codes, across 12,141 parcels.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

This is the trap. A search, a spreadsheet or an automated estimate that filters on the abbreviation alone pulls in every one of those plats. Over September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026, the county file holds 878 qualified single-family sales under the abbreviation at a median of $455,000. Punta Gorda Isles proper alone is 337 sales at $700,000. The other plats on their own are 541 sales at $374,000. Same window, same rules, and a gap of $245,000 in the median from the filter alone.

The remaining 20 parcels sit on small leftover codes, such as a few Section 17 replat lots that carry a different code from Section 17 itself. Burnt Store Isles is a sister community inside the city with its own association and its own canal charge; Deep Creek, Burnt Store Village and Burnt Store Lakes are in unincorporated county under county zoning, outside the City's overlay rules. None of them is Punta Gorda Isles proper, and none of their sales is in the benchmark above.

People also search for "Punta Gorda Isles Section 22". The Charlotte County roll carries no Section 22 parcels, while a homeowners association named Punta Gorda Isles, Section 22 does exist at Burnt Store Marina, which lies in Lee County. Our Burnt Store Marina guide covers that community.

Is Section 18 part of Punta Gorda Isles?

Section 18 of Punta Gorda Isles, known as Burnt Store Meadows, carries the Punta Gorda Isles plat name but is not one of the 19 sections of Punta Gorda Isles proper, and its city or county jurisdiction is disputed in the public record. We count none of its 911 parcels in the benchmark.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

The evidence points both ways. The county GIS plat layer codes Section 18's plat as City land, the City's Special Residential Overlay lists Section 18 by name, and the county roll places 910 of its parcels under a City tax district code. Against that, 895 of its parcels carry the 33955 mailing ZIP south of the city, and an earlier check of census geography placed its parcels outside the city. A parcel-level jurisdiction check has not been done, so we do not settle it here.

The overlay itself treats Section 18 differently: it is the one section where tile or metal roofs and underground sprinklers are not required, and its minimum living area is 1,000 square feet for a single-family home. Its streets follow a tree theme, Royal Poinciana, Gold Tree and Plum Tree among them, and none of its 747 homes carries the appraiser's waterfront flag. Section 18 is also outside the Punta Gorda Isles canal maintenance district. If you are buying there, ask the Property Appraiser which millage applies to the parcel, and read the tax bill, before you rely on either answer.

Which section is the Bird Section of Punta Gorda Isles?

We read the Bird Section of Punta Gorda Isles as Section 14, where the county roll places the bird-named streets such as Albatross, Osprey, Spoonbill and Royal Tern. Our own research also uses Sections 12 and 14 together for the same name, and no recorded plat is titled "Bird Section", so we do not settle the boundary here.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

On the roll, Section 14 is 1,117 homes with 76 sales, median $657,500, $316 per sq ft over September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026, and 181 sales, median $745,000, $358 per sq ft over thirty-six months. Read as Sections 12 and 14 together, the name covers 2,096 homes. The two readings give different counts, so any Bird Section figure you see should say which one it uses. Our Bird Section community page covers the area in depth, including its canal route to the harbor.

Section 14 was the last part of Punta Gorda Isles to be dug. The developer's 1978 annual report showed the bird streets still under construction with no houses, and a dozen or so were underway in 1980. The roll fits that for the bird-named streets, but Section 14 as a whole starts earlier: its oldest single-family home on the roll was built in 1970, on one of the section's other streets.

Are Colony Point, Clipper Cove, Spinnaker Point and Windjammer Point sections?

No. Colony Point, Clipper Cove, Spinnaker Point and Windjammer Point are condominiums inside the Punta Gorda Isles area, recorded under their own condominium declarations, not numbered plat sections. On the county roll, no condominium unit carries a Punta Gorda Isles section legal description, so no condominium is counted in the section table.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County GIS plat layer, Property Appraiser roll and Florida condominium records, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

Each has its own record. Colony Point was recorded in 1971 and is one of the oldest Isles condominiums. Spinnaker Point, at 4000 Bal Harbor Boulevard, was registered with the state in 1989, and Windjammer Point in 1990, with buildings from 1990 to 1992. Clipper Cove, from 1999, sits on the older Punta Gorda Center plat, recorded before Punta Gorda Isles existed, and not on any numbered section. Our condominium guides are Colony Point, Clipper Cove, Spinnaker Point and Windjammer Point.

The distinction matters for a buyer. A condominium carries its own association, budget and rules under Florida's condominium law, layered on top of City code, while a single-family lot in a section answers to the City's overlay and has no mandatory homeowners' association.

What does each section of Punta Gorda Isles hold?

Each Punta Gorda Isles section below is described on the same county record: homes, vacant parcels, waterfront share, build years, living area, recorded prices over twelve and thirty-six months, and main streets. Where the plat book is confirmed in the county GIS layer we give it; plat dates are left out because the county layer does not date in-city plats.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

Punta Gorda Isles Section 1

33 homes and 1 vacant parcel, built 1959 to 2024, median 1966. Thirty-six-month median $512,000 on 6 sales, with 4 sales in twelve months. With Section 3 it carries the lowest plat book number in the Isles: Plat Book 4, page 53 (amended). Its first-name streets, Maria Court and Donna Court, belong to the oldest naming theme in the Isles, and the first homes went up on the basin behind the original sales office, which is now the Isles Yacht Club.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 2

152 homes and 6 vacant parcels, built 1969 to 2025, median 1982. Thirty-six-month median $742,500 on 21 sales, twelve-month median $730,000 on 9. Early waterfront lots along Hibiscus Drive, Coral Way and Colony Point Drive. Colony Point Drive also runs through Sections 3, 4, 6, 17 and 24, and the Colony Point condominium is a separate condominium record, not part of the section count.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 3

54 homes and 5 vacant parcels, built 1969 to 2021, median 1978. Thirty-six-month median $579,500 on 8 sales, with 3 sales in twelve months. A small early plat recorded in Plat Book 4, page 54, on Hibiscus Drive, Colony Point Drive, Bay Court and Rio Court.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 5

597 homes and 12 vacant parcels, built 1959 to 2025, median 1979. Thirty-six-month median $620,000 on 103 sales, twelve-month median $545,000 on 47. Recorded in Plat Book 5, page 60, with Riviera and resort street names such as Via Esplanade, Capri Isles Court and Belvedere Court. Dredging of Punta Gorda Isles began around West Marion Avenue and Bal Harbor Boulevard, both of which run through Section 5 on the roll. Part of Block 34 sits outside the canal maintenance district.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 6

381 homes and 20 vacant parcels, built 1971 to 2025, median 1986. Thirty-six-month median $697,000 on 58 sales, twelve-month median $695,100 on 24.

32 homes and 0 vacant parcels, built 1973 to 2014, median 1992. Thirty-six-month median $715,000 on 5 sales, with 2 sales in twelve months. A short run of Via Formia and one Mineo Drive parcel, and one of the smallest sections with homes.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 9

1 home and 2 vacant parcels, built 2007. 0 sales in thirty-six months, too few for a median. Mostly replatted or condominium land; the roll shows four parcels, one of them a single-family home.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 9B

16 homes and 4 vacant parcels, built 1976 to 2004, median 1995. 1 sales in thirty-six months, too few for a median. A replat on Columbian Drive, West Marion Avenue and Bal Harbor Boulevard, with some of the largest homes in the Isles by median living area. Only parts of it fall inside the canal maintenance district.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 9C

5 homes and 2 vacant parcels, built 1979, median 1979. 1 sales in thirty-six months, too few for a median. A small replat on Bal Harbor Court and Columbian Drive, and the only section where most homes do not carry the waterfront flag.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 10

27 homes and 6 vacant parcels, built 1971 to 2025, median 1991. Thirty-six-month median $1,555,000 on 6 sales, with 3 sales in twelve months. One street, Jamaica Way. The overlay sets a 2,000 square foot minimum living area on its Block 90, and Section 10 has the highest thirty-six-month median and the largest median home of any section.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 11

344 homes and 27 vacant parcels, built 1974 to 2025, median 1997. Thirty-six-month median $815,000 on 59 sales, twelve-month median $790,000 on 24.

Caribbean island names such as La Costa Island Court, Casey Key Drive and Padre Island Drive, and the St. Andrews South golf course tract. It has the most off-water homes of any section. Listed blocks and the golf tract are outside the canal maintenance district.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 14

1,117 homes and 137 vacant parcels, built 1970 to 2025, median 1998. Thirty-six-month median $745,000 on 181 sales, twelve-month median $657,500 on 76. Recorded in Plat Book 8, page 9, with a replat in Plat Book 9, page 7. The largest section, home to the bird-named streets and to Almar Drive and Aqui Esta Drive. Blocks 163 to 167 and Tracts B and C are outside the canal maintenance district.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 17

99 homes and 3 vacant parcels, built 1977 to 2025, median 1988. Thirty-six-month median $685,000 on 13 sales, twelve-month median $697,500 on 8. Don Quixote streets: Don Quixote Drive, La Mancha Court and Sancho Panza Court, with Via Paloma Drive and Colony Point Drive.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 24

18 homes and 20 vacant parcels, built 1974 to 2025, median 2019. 4 sales in thirty-six months, too few for a median. A later plat on Colony Point Drive and North Marion Court, with the youngest homes in the Isles by median year built. Section 24 is outside the canal maintenance district, so check who maintains the seawall before you rely on the City's program.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 26

8 parcels and no single-family homes, so no home prices. A tract plat with no single-family homes; its Tracts B and C fall inside the canal maintenance district.

Punta Gorda Isles Section 27

5 parcels and no single-family homes, so no home prices. A tract plat on Shreve Street with no single-family homes. Its Tract B is the Punta Gorda Isles Civic Association campus, and Section 27 is outside the canal maintenance district.

Which Punta Gorda Isles sections cost the most and the least?

In Punta Gorda Isles, Section 10 on Jamaica Way has the highest recorded median over thirty-six months, $1,555,000 on 6 sales, followed by Section 12 at $840,000 and Section 11 at $815,000. Section 1 is lowest at $512,000, then Section 3 and Section 5.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

The twelve-month view is narrower because fewer sections reach five sales. Over September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026, Section 12 leads at $800,000, then Section 11 at $790,000, while Section 5 is lowest at $545,000 on 47 sales. Section 14's twelve-month median of $657,500 sits below its thirty-six-month median of $745,000, and Section 4 shows the widest drop, from $749,000 to $565,000.

Age and size explain much of the spread. The four lowest-priced sections, 1, 3, 5 and 7, have median build years from 1966 to 1981 and median homes of 2,012 square feet or less. Sections 11 and 12 have median build years of 1997 and 1998 and larger homes. A 1960s or 1970s house is often bought as a remodel or a rebuild under today's flood rules, which is why the price per square foot can look low on an older section.

A median is the middle sale, not the value of any one home. Water frontage, the width and route of the canal, the condition of the seawall and the age of the house all move a single price far more than the section average does. To price a specific address, use our Punta Gorda Isles home valuation or call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

Where are the off-water homes and vacant lots in Punta Gorda Isles?

Almost every home in Punta Gorda Isles carries the appraiser's waterfront flag: 4,505 of 4,726, or 95.3 percent. The 221 that do not are concentrated in two sections, Section 12 with 137 and Section 14 with 71; Section 9C, with four of its five homes off the water, is the only small section where they are the majority.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

Vacant land is spread more widely. The roll shows 434 vacant parcels in Punta Gorda Isles proper, 337 of them waterfront-flagged. Section 14 holds 137 (117 on the water), Section 12 108 (57), Section 7 51 (34), and Sections 4 and 11 hold 27 and 27. Section 24 has more vacant parcels (20) than homes (18).

Lots here cannot be split. Base zoning is mostly a single-family district with a 9,600 square foot minimum lot and an 80 foot minimum width, which is the size of a typical Isles lot, so a vacant parcel is one home site. No new canals can be dug in Florida on this pattern, so the waterfront lots that exist are the supply.

Do the same rules and charges apply in every Punta Gorda Isles section?

Mostly, with named exceptions. The City's Special Residential Overlay, Section 3.13 of its land development code, covers Punta Gorda Isles Sections 1 through 12, 14, 17, 24, 26 and 27, plus Sections 15 and 18. The canal maintenance district that pays for canals and seawalls leaves out Sections 24 and 27 and some blocks of others.

Data updated: November 2026 (City of Punta Gorda Code Chapter 26 and canal district record, as read 3 Nov 2026; county roll retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

The overlay replaced the developer's deed restrictions, which the Punta Gorda Isles Civic Association chose not to renew in 1995, and it is still in force after the City repealed its 2023 code rewrite on July 2, 2025. Its rules are the same across the sections it names, with three section-specific lines: listed blocks in Sections 1 to 8 need at least 1,500 square feet of living area, Section 10 Block 90 needs 2,000, and all other single-family lots need 1,200. Section 18 has its own lower minimum and no tile roof rule, as covered above.

The canal district is where sections really differ. Its legal description covers Sections 1 to 4, most of 5, most of 7, 8, parts of 9, 9B and 9C, 10, 11, most of 12, most of 14, 17 and two tracts of 26. Inside it, the City owns and replaces the seawalls, and each single-family lot pays the annual assessment, $1,500 for the year that began October 2026. Our guide to the Punta Gorda Isles canal assessment has the rate history, and our Punta Gorda Isles seawall guide covers who maintains a wall and how to check an address. Outside the district, in Sections 24 and 27 and the excluded blocks, confirm who maintains the seawall before you buy.

Neither the overlay nor the canal district says anything about the route a boat takes to the harbor. The next section classes that route for every section, and our Punta Gorda Isles sailboat water guide covers the bridges themselves, how to measure one and how to trace a specific dock.

Which Punta Gorda Isles sections have a fixed bridge on the way to the harbor?

Sections 7, 8, 11 and 9B sit wholly behind the West Marion Avenue span over Bass Inlet, and Section 5 wholly behind the span over Sail Fish Canal. Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12 and 17 reach Charlotte Harbor with no fixed bridge. Section 14 splits by street, Section 9C holds 1 bridged home, and Section 24 is not classed. No clearance is published for either span.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County GIS waterways, road centerline and parcel layers; FHWA National Bridge Inventory, 2024 Florida file; Property Appraiser roll of November 1, 2026; retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

Reading the water table. Each home takes the class of the canal water within about 7 meters of its county parcel shape. The county's water layer comes from aerial photography; laid under every county road centerline, it is cut in two only at road crossings that match structures in the federal bridge inventory, and the only two that stand between any home and the harbor are the Bass Inlet and Sail Fish Canal spans. Not classed means the parcel touches only a pond or lake, has no mapped water that close, or has no county parcel shape; 238 of the 274 are in Sections 12 and 14, most of them the off-water homes counted above. The homes column matches the benchmark table.

Section 14 is read street by street. Its 863 bridge-free homes include the bird-named streets south of Aqui Esta Drive, whose canals leave through Buckley's Pass or west toward Ponce de Leon Inlet. Its 180 bridged homes leave through Bass Inlet: every home on Don Juan Ct, Genoa Ct, Lassino Ct, San Marino Ct, Santa Brigida Ct, Santana Ct, Winward Ct, Appian Dr and Juno Dr, then 22 of the 32 on Aqui Esta Dr, 15 of the 29 on Guadalupe Dr, 1 of the 6 on Conecta Dr, whose other homes are not classed, and 5 of the 13 on Bal Harbor Blvd, where the other 8 are bridge-free.

West Marion Avenue bends, and the split bends with it. Maria Ct and Donna Ct in Section 1 sit on the harbor side of its diagonal stretch with no bridge to pass, while the Section 5 courts across the road leave under the Sail Fish Canal span. The Tarpon Inlet span on the same road holds back nobody, since the canals south of it also open to the harbor through Ponce de Leon Inlet. Nor does a seawall crew zone give the class: the City's Sailfish zone covers homes on both sides of the Sail Fish Canal span.

Two limits apply. A class here is a finding about road crossings, not about depth, canal width or overhead lines, and no government source publishes a clearance for the Bass Inlet or Sail Fish Canal span, so this page prints none. The Colony Point Drive homes in Section 24 face a harbor edge that the county maps beyond a land or mangrove polygon, and we class them only after checking the address. For recorded prices on each side of the two bridges, see the sales split in our sailboat water guide.

How do you find which section a Punta Gorda Isles home is in?

Look up the parcel on the Charlotte County Property Appraiser's site and read the short legal description. A Punta Gorda Isles parcel reads PGI, then a three-character section code, then the block and lot, so a legal that begins PGI 014 is in Section 14. Then check the code against the 19 proper codes on this page.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

Three checks follow from the section. First, is the code one of the 19 proper codes, or one of the Burnt Store or Deep Creek plats that share the abbreviation. Second, is the lot inside the canal maintenance district; the City publishes a district boundary map, and the excluded blocks are listed above. Third, which water class the section carries in the table above; in Sections 14 and 9C the street decides it, so read the street list before you rely on the section.

For a historical view, the Punta Gorda History Center holds a 1960 blueprint of the lots after the canals were dug and a 1960s sales map of the planned development, and the University of South Florida keeps a February 1959 aerial of the project. When you want to see which homes are for sale in each section right now, start with the Punta Gorda Isles homes for sale on Domain Realty Group, where the team keeps the current listings, and bring the section codes from this page with you. To talk a specific address through, call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072.

Buying in the Isles? Our guide to buying a home in Punta Gorda Isles walks through the canal checks in order. Selling? Our Punta Gorda Isles seller guide explains how we price a home against its own section rather than the community average.

How was this Punta Gorda Isles section benchmark measured?

Every figure on this page comes from two Charlotte County Property Appraiser public files read on November 3, 2026: the property roll dated November 1, 2026 and the sales file of the same date, whose newest qualified deed is September 9, 2026. We wrote our own script to count parcels and place each sale in its section.

Data updated: November 2026 (Charlotte County Property Appraiser roll and sales files, retrieved 3 Nov 2026).

Punta Gorda Isles proper means a short legal description beginning PGI followed by one of the 19 codes in the table, the same geography our community page uses. A qualified sale is a deed the county codes as a qualified sale (codes 01 and 02), of an improved parcel, over $1,000, on a parcel that is a single-family home today. Price per square foot divides the price by the appraiser's living area, for homes over 300 square feet.

The windows end on the newest deed in the file and start the day after the same date one and three years earlier: September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026, and September 10, 2023 to September 9, 2026. Starting one day earlier would add a single Section 14 deed dated September 9, 2025 and give 338 sales, which is why other summaries of the same file can show one more. The county records deeds weeks after closing, so the most recent months may still fill in.

What the record cannot tell you: days on market, list prices, the sale-to-list ratio and current inventory are not in the county files. Year built is the appraiser's field, so counts that lean on it are approximations. Plat dates for in-city sections are not on the county layer and need the Clerk's plat images, so we leave them out.

Frequently asked questions about Punta Gorda Isles sections

How many plat sections make up Punta Gorda Isles proper?

Punta Gorda Isles proper is 19 section codes on the county roll: Sections 1 through 12 with 9B and 9C split out, plus 14, 17, 24, 26 and 27. There is no Section 13. The roll lists 47 codes under the same abbreviation, but the other 28 belong to Burnt Store Isles, Deep Creek and the Burnt Store plats.

Is there a map of the Punta Gorda Isles sections?

The Charlotte County GIS plat layer draws each section with its plat book and page, and the City publishes a boundary map of the Punta Gorda Isles canal maintenance district. The Punta Gorda History Center also holds a 1960 blueprint and a 1960s sales map. The table on this page gives every section's streets so you can place an address.

What is Section 14 in Punta Gorda Isles?

Section 14 is the largest section, with 1,117 single-family homes, 137 vacant parcels and the bird-named streets. Over September 10, 2025 to September 9, 2026 it recorded 76 sales, median $657,500, $316 per sq ft. Most people mean Section 14 when they say the Bird Section.

Is Burnt Store Isles part of Punta Gorda Isles?

Burnt Store Isles is Punta Gorda Isles Section 15, platted by the same developer, but it is a separate community with its own association and its own canal district. Its 1,272 parcels are not in this page's benchmark.

Is Deep Creek part of Punta Gorda Isles?

Deep Creek was platted as Punta Gorda Isles Sections 20 and 23, but it lies in unincorporated Charlotte County in ZIP 33983, with its own property owners' associations. Its 6,703 parcels are outside Punta Gorda Isles proper.

Is Section 18 inside the City of Punta Gorda?

The record is disputed. County GIS codes the plat as City land, the City overlay names Section 18, and the roll uses a City tax district code, but most parcels carry the 33955 ZIP and an earlier census check placed them outside the city. Ask the Property Appraiser about a specific parcel.

Which Punta Gorda Isles section is the most expensive?

Section 10, on Jamaica Way, has the highest thirty-six-month median at $1,555,000 on 6 sales. Among sections with enough sales for a twelve-month median, Section 12 leads at $800,000.

Which section has the oldest homes?

Sections 1 and 5 hold the oldest single-family homes on the roll, with year built starting in 1959, and Section 4 starts in 1960. Section 1 has the oldest median build year, 1966.

Are there off-water homes in Punta Gorda Isles?

Yes, a few. 221 of 4,726 single-family homes lack the appraiser's waterfront flag, most of them in Section 12 (137) and Section 14 (71).

Do all sections pay the canal assessment?

No. The Punta Gorda Isles canal maintenance district leaves out Sections 24 and 27 and some blocks of Sections 5, 7, 12 and 14. Inside the district each single-family lot pays the annual assessment, $1,500 for the year that began October 2026.

Why do Sections 26 and 27 show no home prices?

They are tract plats with no single-family homes on the roll. Section 27 holds the Punta Gorda Isles Civic Association campus on Shreve Street.

Which Punta Gorda Isles sections are behind a fixed bridge?

Section 5 is behind the West Marion Avenue span over Sail Fish Canal, and Sections 7, 8, 11 and 9B are behind the span over Bass Inlet. With the Section 14 courts north of Aqui Esta Drive and one Section 9C home, that is 1,666 single-family homes. Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12 and 17 have no fixed bridge on the route.
