About This Home

Get ready, because this one is a total TRIFECTA — LOCATION, LIFESTYLE & LUXURY wrapped up in an actually affordable package! This beautifully remodeled 4-bedroom home delivers that light-filled, wide-open floorplan everyone dreams about. The kitchen is pure delight... a gorgeous granite prep-island that doubles as the family gathering hub, farmhouse sink, soft-close base cabinets, crown molding and stainless-steel appliances (2023). It’s the heart of the home and perfectly positioned so you can chat with guests in the great room while whipping up dinner. Hosting? Easy. Weeknight living? Even easier. Your primary suite is a true retreat with a freshly remodeled bathroom (2024), beautiful finishes and spacious walk-in closet. The split bedroom design places three extra-generous bedrooms on the opposite side of the home. The fourth bedroom, dressed with charming barn doors and its own walk-in closet, makes a fantastic flex space—home office, den, playroom ... you decide. Did we mention the NEW 2024 DIMENSIONAL SHINGLE ROOF? The oversized lanai overlooks a big, beautiful private backyard with lush green views. The home is filled with natural light thanks to several NEW IMPACT GLASS WINDOWS (excluding 4th bedroom, dining, and sliders). Sitting on almost a half-acre lot at the edge of the golf course, this home offers peaceful green views and neutral colors throughout, making it easy to bring in your own personal style. There’s plenty of space for gardening, lounging, grilling, or simply sipping your morning coffee while enjoying the sunshine and the quiet backdrop of nature. Welcome to The Forest, an enchanting country club community tucked into the tropical beauty of South Fort Myers. Here, YOU choose your lifestyle. Membership is completely OPTIONAL—pick unlimited golf, executive, sports, or none at all. The lowest HOA fee is an appealing $2,914 per year. Amenities? Oh, they’ve got plenty: 36 holes of golf, practice facilities, clubhouse dining, social events, tennis, pickleball, fitness center, bocce, and more. Use it all or just what you love... the beauty is in the flexibility. It’s the kind of place where neighbors wave, golf carts cruise at sunset, and every day feels just a little more relaxed. BONUS: The seller offers an assumable flood insurance policy for primary occupancy at a very attractive $2,404 per year. LOW HOA. NOT a 55+ community. Just easy, flexible living in one of the best pockets of Southwest Florida. And let’s talk about South Fort Myers — people LOVE it here. Gorgeous beaches, warm Gulf breezes, and that laid-back Florida lifestyle that feels like you’re on vacation every day. Boating, fishing, kayaking, and water sports at your fingertips. Lush parks, golf courses, dining, shopping, and cultural attractions round out the fun. Great schools and a friendly, welcoming vibe make this an ideal location for families, seasonal residents, and year-round sunseekers. The TRIFECTA is real, it’s here, and it’s calling your name—don’t miss it.
