Experience the Best of Old Florida Living! Nestled along the serene banks of the Caloosahatchee, this breathtaking waterfront estate captures the essence of tranquility and timeless Florida charm. Situated on one of the most sought-after and exclusive roads in all of Southwest Florida, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home spans nearly 4,000 square feet and rests on 3 acres with an additional 1 acre of SFWM to use. Horses are welcome. This property has never flooded, sitting high and dry at almost 12 feet of elevation! The property features a pool & spa with an expansive lanai, a private pond, a boat dock with a lift, an outdoor elevator, a variety of fruit trees under a canopy of mature Oaks, impact windows, a screened in deck, and so much more.

Plus, with several local restaurants accessible by boat, your waterfront lifestyle is as convenient as it is scenic. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the last true pieces of authentic Florida—where the connection to nature, water, and peace is unmatched.
