Grassy Point Estates is a small neighborhood in Port Charlotte, the largest community in Charlotte County.

The neighborhood was platted in 1990 on the shore of Alligator Bay, at the north end of the Charlotte Harbor estuary, where the Peace and Myakka Rivers flow into the harbor. The land is flat and low, and the neighborhood is in the high-risk flood zones that FEMA maps along the bay.

Janelle is fantastic. We recently were able to sell our home in one week at 1% over asking price. I believe that the professional photos and staging coupled with Janelle helping us price competitively led to this success. We closed in one month and are so very grateful for Janelle and her help with the sale of our property.
