Property Description
Welcome to this private waterfront oasis in the laid-back River Forest community of Fort Myers. Beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is perfectly positioned on an oversized, pie-shaped lot with an IMPRESSIVE 156 FEET of SEAWALL directly on the Caloosahatchee River. Enjoy breathtaking sunsets and an abundance of wildlife - daily alligator sightings, birds galore, and the occasional visit from dolphins or manatees - all visible through a wall of pocketing glass sliders that seamlessly frame the stunning water views. Boaters will appreciate the deep-water access right in the backyard, complete with a 10,000 lb covered boatlift (less than 5 years old) and a zero-maintenance composite dock with matching tan decking and cover. With approximately 9 feet of water at the back of your boat, you can fish for both fresh and saltwater species - from bass and snook to redfish, catfish, and even tarpon or small sharks. The lush, lovingly landscaped yard features a calusia hedge for privacy, a mature oak for shade, and irrigation via a Rainbird sprinkler system sourced from your own well - saving on utility costs. Walkways on three sides of the home provide easy access to all corners of the property. Inside, the home has been beautifully remodeled with porcelain tile throughout the main living areas and new luxury vinyl plank flooring in the bedrooms. The kitchen boasts all-NEW LG appliances (2024), granite countertops, ALL-WOOD cabinetry with PULL-OUT DRAWERS, and a refrigerator equipped with a craft ice maker. The open-concept layout is perfect for entertaining, enhanced by ample natural light, four ceiling fans, and over two dozen dimmable premium LED lights throughout. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, and the home offers generous storage. Step outside to your oversized pool, surrounded by an OVERSIZED caged lanai with able seating, NEW screens (2024) and a NEW pool pump (2024), creating the ultimate space to relax and enjoy Florida's sunshine. BRAND NEW ROOF INSTALLED MAY OF 2025. NEVER WORRY ABOUT FLOODING AGAIN....Sellers have added a complete flood barrier system for this entire home. "DAM EASY" FLOOD PROTECTION. River Forest is a hidden gem with NO mandatory HOA, but a low-cost optional membership that includes access to a newly renovated clubhouse, community boat ramp, and neighborhood events. With well-maintained homes and roads, friendly neighbors, and a warm sense of community, you'll feel right at home here.
