This exceptional riverfront Gulf access residence offers breathtaking views and a refined Florida lifestyle. Beautifully and intricately crafted, the home was constructed in 2009 by luxury home builder Norm Bloxham featuring 4,334 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Perfectly positioned on over half an acre of direct riverfront, the property showcases sweeping water views and stunning western sunsets. The elegant floor plan includes four bedrooms, five baths (three full and two half), and a private study, complemented by soaring ceilings, a chef’s kitchen with gas cooktop and statement vent hood, an inviting bar, and a sitting area with balcony access. Two river-view balconies enhance the home’s indoor-outdoor connection, including a private balcony off the luxurious primary suite, which also features an impressive oversized walk-in closet and abundant storage throughout. Outdoor living is designed for relaxation and entertaining, featuring a resort-style pool and spa, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, and a fully fenced yard lined with mature hibiscus, creating a lush and private tropical retreat. The grounds are further enhanced by fruit-bearing mango, avocado, orange, and guava trees, offering both beauty and abundance. Additional highlights include a three-car garage with epoxy-coated flooring and built-in cabinetry. Ideally located near the vibrant Fort Myers River District, the residence offers walkable access to cultural events at the Alliance for the Arts, and the popular farmers market and fitness offerings at St. Hilary’s Episcopal Church.
