The best of both worlds: minutes to the beach without island traffic, and one of the shortest boating runs to open Gulf waters in the entire region! This Key West–style home delivers the Fort Myers Beach lifestyle without the congestion, bridges, and premium pricing of island property. Located in the highly desirable Old Pelican Bay area, this is a true single-family home—NOT a duplex or shared-wall property—offering far superior privacy, long-term value, and exceptional boating access. And take note of the aggressive pricing; In fact the very similar home directly across the street recently sold for considerably more--look it up! It only confirms that this one is a deal. Boaters will love the fact this comes with not one but TWO deeded boat slips- a rare combination for the Ft Myers Beach area. One is 40 feet long with a boat lift already in place plus there’s an additional 25 foot slip as well. The boating run to open Gulf waters is truly among the shortest in the region, making this an ideal location for serious boaters. The rear of the property is superb as well, overlooking uninterrupted scenic mangroves that provide natural views, privacy, and spectacular sunset vistas—especially from the private primary suite. The gated neighborhood is great too—Exceptionally well maintained and perfect for those who put an emphasis on a low-maintenance lifestyle that they can easily come and go to whenever they please, yet with modest HOA fees. This home features a two-story screened pool enclosure with a heated saltwater pool and spa. The first floor offers an inviting bar and bonus space right off the pool—perfect for entertaining. The second floor features an open layout with a distinctive kitchen, large island, and wine cooler, plus a 22-foot-wide balcony overlooking the pool and mangroves. The third floor is dedicated to the primary suite, complete with an impressive bathroom and a private terrace for enjoying those sunsets. A private elevator services all floors. The metal roof is brand new, the pool has been resurfaced, a high-end marble pool deck has been added, and top-of-the-line AC systems are added perks too. The Old Pelican area is rapidly becoming even more desirable, with new homes now STARTING at FOUR TIMES the cost of this home and some going even higher- but here's your opportunity to buy into this premium location for a fraction of that price. Come check this one out quickly!
