About this home
If homes had a dating profile, here’s what this one would say: I’m a freshly remodeled pool home sitting confidently on nearly half an acre, angled just right on my lot to show off all the extra yard space I offer for kids, pets, and anyone who loves room to roam. I’m looking for new owners who appreciate charm, comfort, and a whole lot of outdoor living. I have 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths arranged in a split floor plan, and my French-style front door lets natural light pour in—showing off my new floors, fresh paint, and all the updates I’ve received. My kitchen is one of my best features, with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a coastal-inspired tile backsplash that brings a calming pop of color to my otherwise neutral palette. My primary bedroom includes a private ensuite with a walk-in shower and a spacious walk-in closet—because everyone deserves a little luxury. Step out back and you’ll find my screened-in pool and covered lanai, perfectly designed for Florida summers, weekend gatherings, and relaxing afternoons. I’ve been completely refreshed from top to bottom, including new flooring, paint, remodeled kitchen and baths, updated plumbing and electrical, new appliances, windows, AC, hot water heater, pool surface, pool tile, pool pump, and more. I’m move-in ready and proud of it. As part of the River Forest community, I also come with access to a private boat ramp that gets you to the Caloosahatchee River in minutes—leading straight to the Gulf of Mexico and world-class beaches. You’re welcome to keep your boat right at home with me; there are no restrictions here. If you’re looking for a home that’s charming, updated, spacious, and fun, I might just be your perfect match. Come tour me in person—I think we’ll hit it off.

Total association fees sums the core association dues the MLS feed provides (HOA, condo/master association, and land lease), normalized to a yearly figure. These are separate from and additional to specialty charges — mandatory club or food-and-beverage minimums, special assessments, and rec-lease fees — which the IDX feed does not carry. Always confirm the full fee schedule with the HOA or listing agent.
