18247 Creekside Preserve LOOP # 201

Sunsets over a private preserve set the tone at this second-floor carriage home in Creekside Preserve, a gated community perfectly situated in South Fort Myers on the Estero border. The west-facing screened balcony looks out over the trees, and come evening, it's the best seat in the house. Inside, the home is bright and spacious, with a light-filled living area that opens right to the balcony. Three bedrooms plus a den give you room to spread out, and the den can easily become a home office, guest space, or reading room. The kitchen gives you plenty of space to cook and gather, with a granite island and countertops, 42-inch upper cabinets, stainless steel appliances, a stylish backsplash, and a walk-in pantry. The AC and water heater are both newer. The attached garage has an epoxy floor, and there's an extra storage closet on the balcony. Life at Creekside Preserve centers on the lake and the preserve that borders it, with a heated pool, clubhouse, fitness center, and regular social activities for residents. If golf, tennis, or pickleball is part of your routine, Estero Country Club is just minutes away and offers optional memberships. Just outside the gates, you're close to the shopping and dining at Coconut Point, the Estero River, and Koreshan State Park. The Gulf beaches and RSW International Airport are an easy drive away. Peaceful at home and close to everything, this is the best of the Southwest Florida lifestyle.
