23850 Messina CT

Exquisitely designed, two-story turnkey furnished estate home located within the exclusive enclave of Messina Court in The Colony Golf & Bay Club. Built in 2005 to the exacting standards of its original owners, this exceptional residence is perfectly positioned on one of the community’s most scenic golf and waterfront homesites. Soaring ceilings reaching up to 20 feet and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking panoramic views across the infinity-edge pool and outdoor living area, spanning three fairways, the Country Club, and the signature 18th-hole fountain. With a coveted southwest exposure and no neighboring homes in sight, the setting offers a rare sense of openness and privacy unique to Southwest Florida. The home is richly appointed with high-end finishes and thoughtful details throughout, including hurricane-impact windows and doors, marble and wood flooring, a grand marble staircase, a brand-new Lutron lighting system, and expansive zero-corner pocketing sliders that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. The residence offers four spacious bedroom suites, 5.5 baths including a luxurious pool bath, electric hurricane shutters, motorized lanai screens, an outdoor linear fireplace, and a three-car garage plus a separate golf cart garage. In 2023, the exterior was refreshed with a light, modern palette and complemented by a new flat tile roof with dark gutters, enhancing its contemporary curb appeal. The oversized chef’s kitchen is designed for both functionality and entertaining, featuring Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, a six-burner gas range, three ovens, and multiple prep areas. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with custom closets, a sculptural floating soaking tub, and a fully glass-enclosed garden shower set within a walled courtyard for ultimate privacy. The second level offers exceptional guest accommodations, with three ensuite bedrooms, a spacious gathering area featuring a beverage refrigerator and coffee bar, and access to a private balcony. Residents of The Colony enjoy membership to the newly renovated, private waterfront Bay Club, offering two levels of dining along Estero Bay, as well as access to Pelican Landing’s exclusive 34-acre island beach park and pavilion. Golf membership at The Colony Country Club is optional. Ideally situated in a high-and-dry location outside of a flood zone, this home combines luxury, privacy, and lifestyle in one of Southwest Florida’s most sought-after communities.
