Property Description
WESTERN EXPOSURE RIVERFRONT BUILD SITE! Unlock this rare opportunity to build your dream riverfront estate in the highly sought-after Historic McGregor Boulevard Corridor. This .43-acre property has already been cleared, and is ready for new construction. Offering breathtaking river views and an expansive footprint, it provides the perfect blank canvas to create a custom-designed residence built high and dry to meet today's most stringent building codes, ensuring safety, value, and peace of mind for years to come. Life along McGregor Boulevard is the essence of Fort Myers prestige. Known for its majestic Royal Palms, many of which were planted more than a century ago under the vision of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, the boulevard has grown into one of the most iconic addresses in Southwest Florida. Driving or biking along McGregor feels like stepping into a postcard of "Old Florida" charm, yet with every modern convenience just minutes away. This property's location is second to none. Just a short distance from the Downtown Fort Myers River District, you'll have access to waterfront dining, boutique shopping, art walks, and live entertainment year-round. The area also provides close proximity to top-rated hospitals, highly regarded schools, and major airports, making it both convenient and connected. Spend weekends enjoying nearby Gulf beaches, fishing charters, or kayaking along the Caloosahatchee River. Beyond lifestyle, this neighborhood is a true community. The McGregor corridor is lined with historic estates, luxury waterfront homes, and charming Old Florida residences, giving the area a sense of timeless prestige and enduring value. Very few vacant riverfront parcels remain in this historic stretch, making this a genuine once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a waterfront masterpiece tailored to your vision. Whether you are an investor seeking a premium property or a homeowner ready to design your forever home, this lot offers the best of both worlds: riverfront living, historic charm, and modern-day convenience.
