House in Fort Myers, FL 33905

River Oak Park, 2216 River Oak Ln

Set just three homes from the river on a private road shaded by mature oaks, this home offers a setting and lifestyle that stands apart from the typical Southwest Florida home. River Park owners enjoy access to a deeded community boat ramp and recently restored dock with direct river access, along with a waterfront firepit area. Launch the boat or jet ski, spend an afternoon fishing from the dock, or simply settle in by the water and watch the river traffic go by. Back at home, an oversized covered front porch faces toward the river and provides a comfortable place to enjoy the surroundings, mature oak canopy and local wildlife. The oversized lot provides room for the lifestyle that comes with the location, including an extended concrete driveway with space for additional vehicles, a boat or RV, plus an existing RV power hookup. No HOA adds further flexibility. The home itself has character that's increasingly difficult to find, combining a first-floor brick façade, vinyl siding and a metal roof for a distinctive presence along this private street. Inside, the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated, with tile flooring throughout much of the home and new vinyl flooring in the kitchen. Aluminum accordion shutters provide added storm protection for the openings. From boating and RV space to afternoons at the dock and evenings on the oversized porch, this property brings together river access, usable outdoor space and a home that was never designed to blend in with everything around it.
