About this home

Estero Bay is every boaters dream location with endless water views on the exclusive North End of Fort Myers Beach. Here’s your opportunity to own one of the few remaining large parcels that can support a truly grand, private estate in this beautiful boater's community. Tucked away on a quiet cul de sac, this rare property offers the perfect blend of seclusion and proximity, with the connecting lot also available for sale (MLS#2025007080) —it's an ideal location for the ultimate waterfront compound. The adjoining 16,000 square foot parcel allows you to expand your footprint to nearly an acre of waterfront bliss, all with direct Gulf access, panoramic water views, and room to accommodate large yachts. This site offers everything the most discerning buyers seek—privacy, spectacular water views, and an unrivaled location just minutes from Times Square, Margaritaville, and the island’s top hotspots. The shoreline features 200 feet of protected seawall and intersecting canal frontage with the bonus exceptional deepwater access. Combining both lots would transform the property into an expansive waterfront retreat—perfect for hosting, relaxing, or simply enjoying the horizon from sunrise to sunset.The property is development ready with $350,000 design plans included by acclaimed architect Rich Guzman and styled by Adelyn Interiors. The plans showcase a sleek 6,075 sq. ft. estate with around 17,000 sq. ft. of outdoor living, including an elevated infinity pool, wrap around decks, and multiple outdoor lounges—blurring the line between indoors and out. Utilities are in place for a smooth start and every interior detail has been carefully curated for a flawless finish with the option to customize to your taste. This large site offers endless possibilities—add guest quarters, luxury amenities, or create a sprawling compound. With the ability to combine both parcels, you’re looking at a rare opportunity to build one of the most impressive estates on the island, fully tailored to your vision. Whether you choose to build on one of the lots or both, your vision starts here.
