About this home
Experience the best of Southwest Florida living in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home, perfectly positioned on an oversized lot with peaceful preserve views behind and glimpses of the river from the front yard. With sought-after western exposure, you’ll enjoy breathtaking sunsets from the screened pool and spacious outdoor living area—an ideal setting for relaxing evenings or entertaining family and friends. Inside, thoughtful updates and quality features create a home that’s as comfortable as it is functional. Every bedroom offers a walk-in closet, while the spacious primary suite features new flooring and a zero-entry walk-in shower. Additional highlights include central vacuum, a newer oversized washer and dryer, Bosch dishwasher, Kinetico whole-house and under-sink water filtration systems, and numerous improvements throughout. Major updates include a roof that is only three years old, newer A/C and water heater, new attic air ducts, refurbished heating ducts, updated automatic irrigation, new interior and exterior lighting, and a recently refinished pool with updated waterline tile. Manabloc plumbing, lightweight Kevlar hurricane screens for quick storm preparation, and low-cost flood insurance provide added peace of mind. Even more impressive, this home experienced no flooding or water intrusion during Hurricane Ian. The outdoor living area offers a private and relaxing retreat with a screened pool and beautiful views. A backyard water feature, installed by a previous owner, is present but is currently not operational. The seller has no confirmation regarding whether the feature is located entirely within the property’s lot boundaries, and buyers are encouraged to perform their own due diligence. The location is just as exceptional. Rotary Park Environmental Center is less than a mile away, offering nature trails, a butterfly garden, boardwalks, kayaking access, and one of Cape Coral’s favorite spots for walking and wildlife viewing. The Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village and Tarpon Point Marina are only about 2 miles away, where you’ll enjoy waterfront dining, boutique shopping, a full-service marina, spa, and year-round events in one of the city’s premier waterfront destinations. Conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, golf courses, boat ramps, downtown Cape Coral, Fort Myers, and the Gulf beaches, this exceptional property offers privacy, quality updates, and the Florida lifestyle you’ve been looking for.
