This exceptional 3 Bedroom + Den, 2.5 Bath riverfront residence offers direct Gulf access and sits on an expansive .61-acre estate lot with 116 feet of pristine Caloosahatchee River frontage. A masterful renovation of a classic 1926 Mediterranean home, the property reflects nearly a century of architectural pedigree—originally redesigned by Dan Sater, reconfigured and rebuilt in 1990, updated in 2010, and most recently transformed in 2023 with a sophisticated, modern aesthetic. Additional structural and mechanical enhancements include a whole-house repipe and new roof in 2022, as well as a new A/C system, appliances and hot water heater in 2023. A gated entry introduces the property with a grand sense of arrival, opening to a motor court and a detached three-car garage with the potential for a future guest house. Inside, the home blends timeless character with elevated luxury, featuring sun-drenched living spaces that capture sweeping river views. The first floor showcases elegant Travertine marble flooring, a wood-burning fireplace and a fully reimagined kitchen designed for both beauty and functionality. The entire second level is devoted to a magnificent primary suite, offering exceptional privacy and a serene retreat. The primary bath features a large walk-in shower, jetted tub and dual European-style vanities. A private balcony overlooks the pool, expansive rear lawn and the wide river beyond, creating a front-row seat to breathtaking panoramic vistas and unforgettable sunsets. Perfectly positioned in the highly desirable Valencia Terrace neighborhood, along the McGregor Corridor and just one mile from Downtown Fort Myers, this residence offers the freedom of no HOA or restrictions. With unmatched privacy, historic charm, and true waterfront living, the property stands as a rare offering. The adjacent lot is also listed for sale, presenting an extraordinary opportunity to expand or create a multi-parcel riverfront estate.
