About This Home

Exquisite Luxury Riverfront Estate in Alva! Welcome to this remarkable riverfront estate nestled on nearly 6 acres of pristine land in the heart of Alva. This one-of-a-kind property boasts two beautifully renovated residences, offering a unique blend of luxury living, privacy, and income potential.
Main Residence:
The primary home features 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 modern bathrooms, with 1,742 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living space. Recently renovated throughout, it showcases cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams, impact-resistant windows, and an expansive screened balcony offering panoramic views of the Caloosahatchee River. The gourmet kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, sleek finishes, and custom cabinetry. Additional highlights include ultra-modern bathrooms, over five covered parking spaces, and uninterrupted river views from nearly every room. Sitting at nearly 13 feet of elevation, the property provides peace of mind with excellent flood protection.
Waterfront Features:
Enjoy over 170 feet of direct river frontage, complemented by a private canal with a custom dock accommodating vessels up to 80 feet. Complete with water and electrical hookups, this deep-water dock also features a private on-site boat ramp, providing unmatched convenience.
Guest House:
The secondary residence, located at the front of the estate, is a fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offering 1,275 sq. ft. of living space. Currently operating as a highly successful vacation rental, this guest house offers excellent income-generating potential while maintaining privacy thanks to the generous acreage separating the two homes.
Equestrian Amenities:
Ideal for equestrian enthusiasts, the property includes a well-maintained horse barn and ample fenced acreage for horses to roam freely.
Whether you're seeking a serene and ultra-modern riverfront retreat with yacht access and equestrian facilities, or a proven income-producing investment with multiple opportunities for expansion, this estate offers the best of both worlds.
