The Englewood community on the border of Charlotte and Sarasota counties was hit hard by Hurricane Ian as the eye of the category four storm swept through last week.

Many people in the community are now without homes after the devastating winds tore them apart.

WINK News was given a tour of one of those devastated homes. Reporter Taylor Wirtz spoke with the owner Mark who said he had just recently finished a new kitchen and was ready to show it off to neighbors. Now neighbors and anyone passing by can see what is left.

You can watch Taylor’s interview and walkthrough of the home in the video above.

Mark was one of many people who lost their home to Ian.
