Description

NEW PRICE - A rare opportunity to own 1.24+/- private acres directly on the Caloosahatchee River in historic Fort Denaud. This distinctive three-level riverfront retreat offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and approximately 2,599 square feet, blending extensive updates with the warmth and character of Old Florida. Steel-beam construction, restored original cedar siding and beautiful cypress/pecky-cypress details create a home that feels truly one of a kind. The property is designed for the boating lifestyle, with deep-water dockage, a covered boathouse and a 29-foot boat lift providing direct access to the Okeechobee Waterway. Inside, the flexible ground level includes a kitchen and full bath, creating excellent possibilities for guests, extended family, a private in-law arrangement or secondary prep space. Outside, mature tropical gardens, bamboo privacy, flowering specimens, herbs and fruiting plants surround the home and create a private botanical setting along the river. Gated entry, expansive porches and unforgettable waterfront sunsets complete the experience. This property can serve beautifully as a full-time residence, seasonal riverfront escape or flexible second-home opportunity. Buyers interested in any short-term rental or income-producing use should independently verify applicable zoning, licensing, tax and rental requirements. Minutes from the historic Fort Denaud swing bridge and convenient to LaBelle, Fort Myers and Southwest Florida destinations. This is not the typical waterfront home - it is a private Old Florida river retreat built around boating, privacy, character and lifestyle.
