About This Home

Waterfront Living at Its Finest – With Extras You Won’t Want to Miss! Welcome to your private paradise in the sought-after riverfront community of River Forest—a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bath pool home with panoramic views of the Caloosahatchee. Whether you're an avid boater, nature lover, or simply looking for the perfect Florida escape, this home delivers. Step inside to an inviting open-concept layout where indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly. Large pocket sliding doors lead to the expansive screened lanai, complete with a heated pool and spa—a front-row seat for unforgettable sunrises and sunsets over the water. The chef’s kitchen is as stylish as it is functional, with granite countertops, newer cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout, adding warmth and coastal charm. The master suite is a true retreat with his-and-hers bathrooms, dual walk-in closets, and a jetted soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. Outside, a private dock with 10,000 lb. boat lift awaits your next adventure on the water. Additional perks include RV parking with electric and water hookups, a handy outdoor shed, and fruit trees that add character and flavor to the landscape. And there’s more—at the right price, the seller will include a golf cart, perfect for cruising to community potlucks and neighborhood gatherings at the clubhouse. Need a boat? Ask about the 21' Boston Whaler that could be yours too. Worried about insurance? We may even help cover your first year of insurance—just ask! With new homes going up nearby, now is the time to secure this rare and move-in-ready riverfront gem before it's gone!
