Florida Waterfront Living at Its Finest!
Located just off the Caloosahatchee River, this spacious waterfront estate offers direct Gulf access and embodies the ultimate tropical lifestyle. Designed with flexibility in mind, the home currently features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a full-sized office with stunning water views and a large closet — easily convertible into a 4th bedroom if desired.
The property is ideal for multi-generational living, with two distinct living areas and a private entrance for the 2nd living area, complete with its own two-car garage and a/c system. In total, you’ll find two oversized two-car garages, each equipped with automatic openers and ceiling fans.
Freshly painted with vibrant tropical hues, the home is surrounded by lush privacy palms and tropical landscaping, creating a serene and secluded oasis. Outdoor living is a dream come true with pavered patios, a large mansard-caged pool, and an above-ground jacuzzi — perfect for entertaining or unwinding after a day on the water. The main living area features pocketing sliding doors that fully open to blend indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly.
For boaters, this location is unparalleled — you’ll enjoy a boat lift, additional davits, and quick access to open water in just minutes. Whether you prefer boating, kayaking, or canoeing, your next adventure starts right from your backyard. Your new home is only two homes from the Caloosahatchee River.
The primary suite, located on the ground floor, offers stunning views of the pool and canal, along with a remodeled marble shower, dual closets, and spa-like finishes.
The home experienced minor water intrusion from Hurricane Milton (approximately 7 inches), and the sellers immediately took the steps necessary to prep the property for your finishing touches. Drywall has been purchased and will convey with the sale, allowing the new owners to easily complete the repairs to their own taste. The downstairs flooring has been removed, leaving a clean slate for your custom design.
As an added bonus, the property also includes a 30-amp RV hookup, perfect for storing your recreational vehicles or accommodating guests.
This incredible waterfront opportunity is priced to generate strong interest — schedule your private showing today before this slice of paradise is gone! Homes in this sought-after neighborhood are moving fast.
