Welcome to this exceptional riverfront estate set on just under 6 acres along the south side of the Caloosahatchee River, east of the Franklin Locks. Offering 170 feet of direct river frontage, deep-water yacht access, and a level of privacy that’s hard to find, this is truly a unique waterfront property. The custom dock sits within a protected canal and is equipped with water and electric service, accommodates yachts up to 80 feet, and includes a private boat ramp for easy access to the river. Whether you’re heading out for a day on the water or simply enjoying the view, this property was designed to take full advantage of its waterfront setting. The fully renovated main residence features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and approximately 1,742 square feet of living space. Cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams, impact-resistant windows, and a large screened balcony showcase wide river views, while the updated kitchen offers quality appliances, custom cabinetry, and a clean, modern design. The home sits at approximately 13 feet of elevation, providing added peace of mind, and nearly every room enjoys a view of the water. A separate fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath guest home offers approximately 1,275 square feet and is privately positioned near the front of the property. Currently operating as a successful vacation rental, it provides excellent flexibility for guests, extended family, or additional rental income. The property also includes a horse barn and plenty of acreage for those looking to enjoy an equestrian lifestyle. Whether you’re searching for a private riverfront retreat, a family compound, or a property with income potential, opportunities like this are few and far between. With nearly 6 acres, 170 feet of direct river frontage, and deep-water yacht access, this is a waterfront property that truly stands apart.
