Overview

Direct Sailboat Gulf Access with Open Water in Minutes! Incredible waterfront opportunity on a wide DEEP WATER CANAL with direct sailboat access and open water just minutes away. Perfectly positioned near the Caloosahatchee River, this property offers fast access to the Gulf of Mexico, Sanibel, Captiva, and Fort Myers Beach. Boaters and water enthusiasts will love the private dock, lift, and rare grandfathered-in boat ramp, ideal for launching your boat, canoe, kayak, or jet skis right from your backyard. Enjoy the soothing sounds of the water and the coastal breeze that make this home feel like a private beach retreat.
Set on a large .35-acre lot, this 1,403-square-foot home features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a garage, along with a 238-square-foot bonus room perfect for a workshop, home office, or recreation space. Many major updates are already complete including electrical, plumbing, kitchen, and a new roof installed in 2017, giving you the freedom to personalize the finishing touches to your own style. The hard work has been done; now you can design your dream waterfront home without paying for someone else’s taste.
Inside, the owners have reimagined the floor plan by opening walls, expanding the kitchen with a modern island, and creating a bright, open-concept layout ideal for entertaining. Step through the living area to a large screened patio overlooking the water, the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or weekend barbecues under the Florida sun.
For boating enthusiasts, this is truly a boater’s paradise: a 10,000-pound boat lift and a private boat ramp. Turn east for the Gulf islands and world-class fishing, or head west across the Okeechobee Waterway and reach Florida’s Atlantic Coast by day’s end. From there, the adventure continues to the Keys, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, or even the Bahamas. Enjoy the rare combination of deep water access, privacy, and potential in one of Fort Myers’ most desirable waterfront corridors. Whether you renovate, expand, or simply enjoy the charm as it is, this home offers endless possibilities and an unbeatable lifestyle on the water.
