ENGLEWOOD
An unincorporated area straddling two counties (Charlotte
and Sarasota), Englewood is literally surrounded by the Gulf of
Mexico. Miles of unspoiled beaches, world famous fishing, shelling
and boating are a few of the amenities offered to the more than
50,000 year-round residents, approximately two-thirds of whom live
in Charlotte County.
The area was founded in 1884 by two brothers who established vast
lemon groves. One-acre “city lots” were platted and recorded to create
a downtown section, which was surrounded by ten-acre “grove lots”
designed to provide for future permanent residents. In later years, a
prosperous lumber industry also flourished. The greatest attraction
was, and still is, its appeal as a growing residential area with long
stretches of white sand beaches.
The Cape Haze peninsula, located in west Charlotte County, is
home to approximately 13,000 residents. In addition to pristine golf
courses and miles of natural waterways, perfect for kayaking and
fishing, this community has shopping, schools, churches and all the
comforts of home.
