Property Description
Experience unmatched coastal living in this beautifully renovated direct-access waterfront home, complete with premium modern updates and inviting, fully curated living spaces. A Curated Turnkey Package built with the enduring solid construction of a Michigan home and upgraded for contemporary luxury, this residence delivers an exceptional split-bedroom layout spanning over 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully styled interiors. Step inside to bright, designer-inspired living and dining spaces appointed with comfortable, elegant furnishings perfect for both relaxed everyday living and lively entertaining. At the heart of the home, the expansive chef’s island kitchen boasts abundant custom cabinetry, sleek surfaces, and seamless connection to the main great room. The private primary retreat is positioned at the rear of the home, offering peaceful water views directly overlooking the canal. This tranquil suite features a generous walk-in closet and a beautifully updated en-suite bath. Across the home, a dedicated guest wing hosts two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath, providing ideal privacy and comfort for visiting friends and family. Upgrades extend throughout the property, featuring a durable new roof installed in 2023 and an oversized, attached two-car garage upgraded with tile flooring and light blue coating, complete with a dedicated laundry area. Out back, your private waterfront oasis awaits with an intimate covered outdoor living space set just steps from your deep-water dock. Complete with a concrete seawall, cantilever dock, and a covered boat lift with a wraparound walkway, boater friendly safe harbor boasts zero bridges and direct access to Little Lake Michigan with Gulf Access via the Caloosahatchee River. Located just minutes from Downtown Fort Myers via trolley, water taxi, or rideshare, this move-in-ready home offers the quintessential Southwest Florida lifestyle from day one. For buyers looking for a truly move-in-ready experience, an optional, fully curated furnishings package is available with the home. Every room has been thoughtfully furnished to create a comfortable, elevated and cohesive feel while still being highly livable for everyday family life and entertaining. The billiards table is surrounded by a collection that includes several standout pieces from Four Hands, the Austin-based design house known for distinctive, contemporary furnishings with a relaxed, residential aesthetic. Highlights include the king-size reclaimed wood bed and oversized mirror in the primary suite, along with the two sofas and two lounge chairs in the family room. The family room is complemented by a Restoration Hardware coffee table. For a buyer, this package offers more than furniture—it provides the opportunity to step into a beautifully finished home without the time, expense or effort of furnishing it from scratch. Simply bring your personal belongings and enjoy.
