A rare investment opportunity and the only multifamily-style residence currently available in the entire Connors area of Vanderbilt Beach. This exceptional Gulf-access waterfront property offers versatility, usability, and long-term value, set on an oversized corner lot with approximately 105 feet of canal frontage. Constructed of concrete block and designed as a single-story residence, the property features a primary home plus a separate guest apartment, creating a flexible layout ideal for personal use, income potential, or extended family living. A private dock is already in place and accommodates two boat lifts, including one lift with a boathouse, providing protected and convenient boating access. The wide canal offers open water views, excellent maneuverability, and a desirable setting within one of Naples’ most established boating communities. Outdoor living is a standout feature of the property, thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and relaxation. Enjoy the beautiful infinity-edge pool surrounded by an expansive paver deck, along with a canal-front tiki hut featuring a full bar, Bluetooth speaker system, and scenic water views—perfect for sunset gatherings. A pergola with integrated lighting creates an inviting space for evening dining or lounging, while a private 7-hole mini-golf course adds a distinctive and rarely found amenity that enhances both lifestyle enjoyment and guest appeal. Interior spaces are comfortable, stylish, and fully updated, featuring a split-bedroom floor plan, abundant natural light, and seamless indoor-outdoor connectivity. The entire interior has been completely renovated with modern finishes and improved functionality throughout. The single-level design enhances accessibility and everyday livability. The main residence includes three bedrooms plus a den and two full baths. A separately metered guest apartment with private entrance and dedicated parking offers one bedroom, one bath, kitchen, living area, laundry, and screened porch—allowing for independent use or rental flexibility. Recent improvements include a new roof, impact-resistant windows and sliders throughout, and storm surge protection, providing added peace of mind and long-term durability. With multiple living spaces, two boat lifts, and direct Gulf access, this canal-front property offers a level of flexibility rarely found in the Connors area and supports a wide range of ownership strategies. Ideally located near Vanderbilt Beach, the Ritz-Carlton, and Mercato, with convenient access to premier dining, shopping, and coastal amenities, this property presents a compelling opportunity in one of Naples’ most desirable waterfront neighborhoods.
